OPERATION
WARNING
To avoid serious personal injury, always tighten
fence quick lock and fence bolts securely before
making a cut. Failure to do so, could result in
movement of the workpiece while making a cut.
Place the workpiece flat on the machine base with
■
one surface securely against the adjustable fence.
Align cutting line on the workpiece with the edge of
■
the abrasive wheel.
Push in the vice crank handle to set the vice clamp
■
against the workpiece. Turn the vice crank handle
1/2 to 1 turn clockwise to securely clamp the
workpiece to the fence.
WARNING
To avoid serious personal injury, keep your
hands at least 76.2 mm (3") from wheel.
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 workpiece in the vice).
Material will get hot during cutting operation.
Keep hands off of metal being cut to avoid
serious personal injury.
Before turning on machine, perform a dry run of the
■
cutting operation just to make sure that no problems
will occur when the cut is made.
Start the machine by grasping the handle and fully
■
squeezing the switch trigger. Allow several seconds
for the wheel to build up to full speed before letting it
come into contact with the material to be cut.
Once it reaches full speed slowly lower the handle of
■
the machine arm until the cut-off wheel comes in
contact with the material being cut. Continue to use
steady and even pressure to obtain a uniform cut
through the workpiece. Never force the wheel into the
material being cut.

can be burned. Failure to heed this warning
could result in serious personal injury.
MAINTENANCE

To ensure safety and reliability, all repairs — with
the exception of the externally accessible
brushes — should be performed by a Ryobi
Authorized Service Center.
BRUSH REPLACEMENT (Fig. 14)
Your cut-off machine has externally accessible brush
assemblies that should be periodically checked
for wear.
Proceed as follows when replacement is required:
Unplug your cut-off machine.
■
WARNING
Failure to unplug cut-off machine could result in
accidental starting causing possible serious
personal injury.
Remove brush cap with a screwdriver. Brush
■
assembly is spring loaded and will pop out when you
remove brush cap.
Remove brush assembly.
■
Check for wear. Replace both brushes when either
■
has less than 6.35mm (1/4") length of carbon
remaining. Do not replace one side without replacing
the other.
Reassemble using new brush assemblies. Make sure
■
curvature of brush matches curvature of motor and
that brush moves freely in brush tube.
Make sure brush cap is oriented correctly (straight)
■
and replace.
Tighten brush cap securely. Do not overtighten.
