SAFETY PRECAUTIONS:
Warning: When using air tools, basic safety precautions should always be followed to
reduce the risk of injury, including the following:
1. Avoid accidental starting.
- Keep throttle shutoff closed when transporting or repositioning
2. Disconnect Machine.
- This tool should be disconnected when not in use. If air is shutoff, tool should
be discharged of any stored air pressure.
3. Maximum Air Pressure
- Maximum air pressure is 135 PSI.
- Use clean, lubricated, regulated air.
4. Protect Airlines
- Avoid using excessive length airlines. Extended airlines reduce tool power and
are a working hazard.
- Inspect all airlines for safe condition before use.
5. Maintain Tool.
- Use sharp blades and keep Saw clean for optimum performance.
- Keep handles clean, dry and free from oil and grease.
- This tool, like all air tools, will provide best performance with
lubrication.
- Use WIDDER® Air Tool Lube for best performance
6. Do not force tool.
- Use tool pressed firmly against reaction plate.
- Cut should be performed with adequate force to develop chips during cutting
but not so as to stall the tool under load.
7. Support work piece
- Be sure to support the work piece on both sides of any cut. An
unsupported work piece can sag, pinching the blade and causing the blade to
break or shatter.
8. Dress properly.
- Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry as they can be caught in moving parts.
- Work gloves and non-skid footwear are recommended.
- Wear ear protection.
- Wear safety glasses.
9. Maintenance.
- Maintenance should be performed by a WIDDER® Factory Authorized
Service Representative.
10. Replacement Parts.
- When servicing, use only genuine WIDDER® replacement parts from an
authorized distributor.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS:
Warning: Operator should be thoroughly familiar with safety precautions before
attempting to operate this tool.
1. Install saw blade firmly with Lock plate and pin engaged with blade.
2. Start saw and adjust throttle speed to material speed specifications.
3. Manually feed blade into cut, applying enough pressure to produce chips shaped like
small 6 or 9 shaped pieces. Adjust saw speed to compensate for load if required.
4. Keep reaction plate against work-piece to reduce vibration.
5. If possible, apply lubricant, water, or air blast to cut. This will extend blade life, speed
cutting time, and keep the blade and work piece cool.
6. CAUTION: No steel cutting blade can cut without the chance of heat or sparks. Do not
use tool in explosive environments without following all industry accepted practices for
safe power tool and metal working operation.
7. Lubricate after use. Apply small amount of air tool or water displacing light spindle oil
into throttle intake, reconnect tool and run for 10 seconds before disconnecting for
storage
