Troubleshooting; Illustrations - Ryobi PSBCS02 Operator's Manual

 Remove the battery pack.
 Install the appropriate cutting wheel and rotate the wheel
guard to the desired position.
 Adjust the shoe assembly up or down to set the depth of
cut or remove it completely if needed.
 Secure the workpiece to a work bench or table with a
vise or with clamps.
 Mark the line of cut clearly.
 Install the battery pack.
 Check the direction of rotation on the wheel and select
the correct setting (forward or reverse) on the tool.
 Hold the tool firmly in front of and clearly away from you,
keeping the cutting wheel clear of the workpiece.
 Depress the switch trigger and let the cutting wheel reach
full speed.
WARNING:
The wheel coming in contact with the workpiece before it
reaches full speed could cause tool to "kickback" toward
you resulting in serious injury.
 Move the wheel through the workpiece.
NOTE: Do not force. Use only enough pressure to keep
the tool cutting. Let the wheel and tool do the work.
 Continue to use steady and even pressure to obtain a
uniform cut through the material. Never force the wheel
into the material being cut.
 When the cut is complete, release the switch trigger and
allow the wheel to stop rotating before raising the wheel
out of material.

CUTTING TILES
Always draw the line to be cut on the tile using a marker or
grease pencil. If the tile is shiny and hard-to-mark, place
masking tape on the tile and mark the tape.
A common problem when cutting tile is straying from the
marked line. Once you've strayed from the mark, you can not
force the wheel back to the line by twisting the tile. Instead,
back up and recut the tile slicing off a small amount of tile
until the wheel is back on track.
CUTTING PLASTICS
Heat generated from the cutting wheel can melt plastic.
Follow these steps to reduce the risk of overheating the
cutting wheel:
 Cut slowly and do not force the wheel into the material.
Maintain a speed and pressure which allows cutting
without overheating the wheel.
 Take frequent breaks when cutting plastic materials and
allow the cutting wheel to cool.
CUTTING METALS
With a metal cutting wheel installed, you may cut metals such
as sheet steel, pipe, steel rods, aluminum, brass, and copper.
Use caution when cutting metals and observe the following
to avoid potential hazards:
 Adjust the position of the wheel guard to provide maxi-
mum protection from sparks and loose particles thrown
from the cutting wheel.
 Material will get hot during cutting operation. Keep hands
off of metal being cut to avoid serious personal injury.
 Do not touch the cut material until it cools or you can be
burned.
