SAFETY INFORMATION
4
• This tool has high-speed, highly abrasive cutting surfaces which can quickly
cause severe injury. Keep fingers and hands away from moving parts when
operating. Wear thick, well-fitting work gloves and keep loose clothing,
sleeves, cords, jewelry and hair away from moving parts.
• Always disconnect tool from air supply when changing Cut-Off Wheels to
prevent accidental tool starting and potential severe injury.
• This tool will eject a trail of sparks at high speed which can ignite flammable
materials or injure others nearby. Do not operate in the vicinity of flammable
materials and keep all persons and pets away from the work area.
• Do not force tool or exert side forces on Cut-Off Wheel while cutting as
the tool body can suddenly kick back or twist causing severe hand or wrist
injury. Cut-Off Wheels can shatter with excessive side force causing them to
disintegrate and eject sharp pieces at high velocity.
• Always make sure the workpiece being cut is securely clamped or anchored
to avoid sudden movements which could result in injury.
• Frequently inspect Cut-Off Wheel and tool condition. If cracks or chips
develop, discontinue tool use immediately and replace damaged Wheel.
ONLY USE replacement Wheels rated at 16,000 RPM or greater. Severe
injury can result in the event of Cut-Off Wheel failure.
• Keep fingers from between moving parts when adjusting the angle of
the Head.
• This tool will vibrate during use! Repeated exposure to vibration may
cause physical injury.
