Sequence

Mounting the cutting disc

Inspect the disc for damage.
See SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS, Page 8.
Unscrew screw (9) and remove the spring washer (8).
Place the cutting disc (5) on the arbour (7).
NOTE: The arbor hole of the cutting disc must be an exact fit
with the arbor or shaft.
For cutoff discs with 25.4 mm (1") arbor holes, use the cor-
rect size disc holder (supplied only with cutoff discs with 25.4
mm (1") arbor holes). Non-compliance can cause serious
injury!
Make sure the cutting disc is installed so it turns in the right
direction, if a direction is marked on the disc.
Place the spring washer (8) on the arbour and insert the screw
(9) and tighten by hand.
Slowly turn the cutoff disc until a hole (11) in the V-belt pulley is
visible in the counter-holding opening (10) of the cutting arm.

Insert the Allen key (2) as far as it will go. The shaft is now
blocked.

the cutting wheel may slip during cutting.
