OPERATION
Hold the handle firmly. Switch on the tool and wait until
the wheel attains full speed before lowering gently into
the cut. When the wheel contacts the workpiece,
gradually bear down on the handle to perform the cut.
When the cut is completed, switch off the tool and WAIT
UNTIL THE WHEEL HAS COME TO A COMPLETE
STOP before returning the handle to the fully elevated
position.
CAUTION:
• Proper handle pressure during cutting and
maximum cutting efficiency can be determined by
the amount of sparks that is produced while cutting.
Yo ur p r es su re on th e h an dl e s ho u ld b e a dj u st ed to
produce the maximum amount of sparks. Do not
force the cut by applying excessive pressure on
the handle. Reduced cutting efficiency, premature
wheel wear, as well as, possible damage to the
tool, cut-off wheel or workpiece may result.
