    ADJUSTABLE FLIP FENCE See Figure 6. The adjustable flip fence is located at the rear of your cut-off machine. As mentioned previously, it is used along with the vise clamp to provide a clamp for holding your workpiece securely when making cuts. It also makes your cut-off machine more versatile.

  • Page 13: Depth Stop

    DEPTH STOP The depth stop limits the wheel's downward travel. It allows the wheel to go below the machine base enough to maintain full cutting capacities. The adjustable depth stop is a nylok bolt threaded into the base of the machine at the rear. To adjust the depth stop use an 8 mm wrench to raise or lower the depth stop bolt.

    POWER SUPPLY Before operating your cut-off machine, check your power supply and make sure it meets the requirements listed on the tool’s data plate. A substantial voltage drop will cause a loss of power and machine overheating. Common causes of power loss and machine overheating are insufficient extension cord size and multiple tools operating from the same power source.
