OPERATION

POWER SUPPLY
Before operating the cut-off machine, check the power
supply and make sure it meets the requirements listed on
the tool's data plate. A substantial voltage drop will cause a
loss of power and machine overheating.
Common causes of power loss and machine overheating are
insufficient extension cord size and multiple tools operating
from the same power source.
ON/OFF SWITCH
To turn the cut-off machine ON, depress the on/off switch
located in the handle portion of the machine arm.
To turn it OFF, release the on/off switch.
CUTTING WITH THE CUT-OFF MACHINE
See Figures 6 - 7, page 17.
A cut-off is made by cutting across the width of the material.
A straight cross cut is made with the adjustable fence set at
the zero degree position. Angled cut-offs are made with the
adjustable fence set at some angle other than zero.
 Loosen the miter lock handle securing the fence.
 Rotate the adjustable fence to the desired angle.
 Retighten miter lock handle securing fence.
WARNING:
To avoid serious personal injury, always tighten vise crank
handle securely before making a cut. Failure to do so could
result in movement of the material while making a cut.
 Place the material flat on the machine base with one
surface securely against the adjustable fence.
 Align cutting line on the material with the edge of the
abrasive wheel.
 Push in the vise crank handle to set the vise clamp against
the material. Turn the vise crank handle 1/2 to 1 turn clock-
wise to securely clamp the material to the fence.
 Firmly secure the material to be cut using the machine's
vise (adjustable fence and vise clamp).
 When cutting long pieces, support the opposite end of
the material with a roller stand or with a work surface level
with the machine base.
WARNING:
Never perform any cutting operation freehand (without
placing material in the vise). Material will get hot during
cutting operation. Keep hands off of metal being cut to
avoid serious personal injury.
