SPARK DEFLECTOR ADJUSTMENT (FIG. A)
To best deflect sparks away from surrounding persons and
materials, loosen the screw (2), adjust the spark deflector
(3) and then retighten screw. Do not allow cordset to come
into contact with deflector or sparks as damage to cordset
may occur.
DEPTH STOP (FIG. A)
Depth stop is set at the factory for a new 14" wheel to
prevent wheel from cutting into the supporting surface.
To allow more depth of cut, use the flat wrench provided
(7) to loosen the depth stop bolt (13) and raise bolt to
desired height and then turn jam nut (13) clockwise until
seated firmly on the casting. Securely tighten the depth
stop bolt before use.
Caution! When changing to a new wheel, readjust
depth stop to original position to prevent cutting into
supporting surface.
TRIGGER SWITCH (FIG. A)
To start the tool, depress the trigger switch (14). To
turn the tool off, release the trigger switch. Keep hands
and material from wheel until it has coasted to a stop.
To prevent unauthorized use of tool, install a standard
padlock (not included) into the padlock hole (15) located
in the trigger.
MATERIAL CLAMPING AND SUPPORTING (FIG. B, C)
f Angles are best clamped and cut with both legs
resting against base.
f A spacer block slightly narrower than the workpiece
can be used to increase wheel utilization (Fig. 2).
f Long workpieces must be supported by a block so
it will be level with top of base (Fig. 3). The cut off end
should be free to fall downward to avoid wheel
binding.
VISE OPERATION (FIG. 4)
The vise (6) has a quick-travel feature. To release
the vise when it is clamped tightly, turn the crank (8)
counterclockwise one or two times to remove clamping
pressure. Lift vise lever (9) up. Pull crank assembly out
as far as desired. Vise may be pushed forward into work
without cranking. Lower vise lever (9) then tighten vise (6)
on work by using crank (8).
FENCE OPERATION (FIG. 5, 6)
Caution! Turn off and unplug the tool before making
any adjustments or removing or installing
attachments or accessories. Be sure the trigger
switch is in the OFF position. The fence (5) can be
adjusted two ways: to change desired cutting angle and to
change spacing between the fence and vise.

TO CHANGE THE DESIRED CUTTING ANGLE
Use the wrench provided to loosen (do not remove) the
two fence bolts (16). Align the desired angle indicator
line with the slot line (17) in the base (4). Securely tighten
both fence bolts before use. For more accurate square
cuts, disconnect the power supply, loosen the two fence
bolts, push arm down until wheel extends into base. Place
a square against the wheel and adjust fence against the
square. Securely tighten both fence bolts before use.
When making a miter cut, the vise (6) may not clamp
securely, depending on the thickness of the workpiece
and the miter angle. Other aids (such as spring, bar or
C-clamps) will be necessary to secure the workpiece to
the fence when making these cuts.
TO CHANGE SPACING BETWEEN THE FENCE
AND VISE
Using the wrench provided, loosen and remove the two
fence bolts (16). Adjust the fence (5) to desired locations.
Insert both fence bolts in provided locations. Securely
tighten both fence bolts before use.
