Note: Always switch off and disconnect the mains plug before changing or inspecting the abrasive disc.
Regularly check the expiry date of the disc; never used expired abrasive discs – high risk of the disc shattering.

• Keep hands out of the path of the abrasive disc, never reach around the abrasive disc. Make sure the abrasive disc is clear of the workpiece before the trigger switch is pressed in.

• Stop operation immediately if you notice anything abnormal.

• Wait for the abrasive disc to stop completely and remove the plug from the mains supply before servicing or adjusting the abrasive cut off saw or changing the abra-sive disc.

• Be alert at all times, especially during repetitive, monotonous operations. Don’t be lulled into a false sense of security. Abrasive discs can be extremely unforgiving. Use of improper accessories may cause damage to the abrasive cut off saw and surrounding area as well as increasing the risk of injury.

• Do not modify the abrasive cut off saw to do tasks other than those intended.

• When sawing always use the vice to hold the material; To avoid injury, the workpiece should never be held with the bare hands.

• Remove all tools from the machine base after adjustments are made.

• Appropriate personal protective equipment MUST be worn and MUST be designed to protect against all hazards created. Severe permanent injury can result from using inappropriate or insufficient protective equipment – Eyes, in particular, are at risk.

• Do not overload the abrasive disc. Allow the abrasive disc to operate at its optimum speed for maximum efficiency.

• Keep hands away from the abrasive disc.

• Never use this abrasive cut off saw with the disc guards or rear motor cover re-
  moved.

• Round tubing can have a tendency to roll whilst being cut and can cause the abrasive disc to slip, DO NOT cut such items without clamping the material with the vice. Do not start the abrasive cut off saw until the material is secure and the abrasive disc has been lowered to just above the material.

• Never use damaged, expired or lower rpm rated abrasive discs, this is extremely dangerous and could split or even shatter, and could injury you or any one in the vicinity.

Note: If the abrasive cut off saw is used in a place of work all rules and laws etc. relating to the use of portable electrical appliances should be followed.

When using the saw always ensure the operator, as well as those in the area, wear ear protection.

When using the saw always ensure the operator, as well as those in the area, wear eye protection.

Some wood and wood composites have the potential to be highly toxic; always wear a face mask when operating saw.

This saw is double insulated; This means the operator is separated from the tool’s electrical system by two complete sets of electrical insulation. This extra layer of insulation is intended to protect the user from electrical shock due to a break in the wiring insulation. All exposed metal parts are isolated from the internal metal motor components with protecting insulation. Double-insulated tools do not need to be grounded (earthed). Servicing of a tool with double insulation requires extreme care and knowledge of the system and should be performed only by a suitably qualified person.

CAUTION: The warnings and cautions mentioned in this user manual can not cover all possible conditions and situations that may occur. It must be understood by the operator that common sense and caution are factors which cannot be built into this product, but must be applied.
