c) When wheel is binding or when interrupting a cut
for any reason, switch off the power tool and hold
the power tool motionless until the wheel comes
to a complete stop. Never attempt to remove the
cut-off wheel from the cut while the wheel is in
motion otherwise kickback may occur. Investigate
and take corrective action to eliminate the cause of
wheel binding.
d) Do not restart the cutting operation in the work-
piece. Let the wheel reach full speed and care-
fully reenter the cut. The wheel may bind, walk up
or kickback if the power tool is restarted in the work-
piece.
e) Support panels or any oversized workpiece to
minimize the risk of wheel pinching and kickback.
Large workpieces tend to sag under their own weight.
Supports must be placed under the workpiece near
the line of cut and near the edge of the workpiece on
both sides of the wheel.
f) Use extra caution when making a "pocket cut"
into existing walls or other blind areas. The pro-
truding wheel may cut gas or water pipes, electrical
wiring or objects that can cause kickback.
Additional Safety Warnings:
17. Be careful not to damage the spindle, the flange
(especially the installing surface) or the lock nut.
Damage to these parts could result in wheel
breakage.
18. Make sure the wheel is not contacting the work-
piece before the switch is turned on.
19. Before using the tool on an actual workpiece, let
it run for a while. Watch for vibration or wobbling
that could indicate poor installation or a poorly
balanced wheel.
20. Watch out for flying sparks. Hold the tool so that
sparks fly away from you and other persons or
flammable materials.
21. Do not leave the tool running. Operate the tool
only when hand-held.
22. Do not touch the workpiece immediately after
operation; it may be extremely hot and could
burn your skin.
23. Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
unplugged or that the battery cartridge is
removed before carrying out any work on the
tool.
24. Observe the instructions of the manufacturer for
correct mounting and use of wheels. Handle and
store wheels with care.
25. Do not use separate reducing bushings or adap-
tors to adapt large hole abrasive wheels.
26. Use only flanges specified for this tool.
27. Check that the workpiece is properly supported.
28. Pay attention that the wheel continues to rotate
after the tool is switched off.
29. If working place is extremely hot and humid, or
badly polluted by conductive dust, use a short-
circuit breaker (30 mA) to assure operator safety.
30. Do not use the tool on any materials containing
asbestos.
31. Do not use water or grinding lubricant.
32. Ensure that ventilation openings are kept clear
when working in dusty conditions. If it should
become necessary to clear dust, first disconnect
the tool from the mains supply (use non metallic
objects) and avoid damaging internal parts.
33. Cutting discs must not be subjected to any lat-
eral pressure.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
WARNING:
DO NOT let comfort or familiarity with product
(gained from repeated use) replace strict adherence
to safety rules for the subject product. MISUSE or
failure to follow the safety rules stated in this instruc-
tion manual may cause serious personal injury.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION

CAUTION:
• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
unplugged before adjusting or checking function on the
tool.
Shaft lock (Fig. 1)
CAUTION:
• Never actuate the shaft lock when the spindle is mov-
ing. The tool may be damaged.
Press the shaft lock to prevent spindle rotation when
installing or removing accessories.
Sighting (Fig. 2)
There are notches on the front and rear of the base. This
is helpful for an operator to follow a straight cutting line.
Adjusting the grooving or cutting depth (Fig. 3)
The depth of grooving or cutting can be adjusted in the
range of 0 through 30 mm.
Loosen and move the clamping screw so that the pointer
points to your desired depth graduation on the scale.
Then tighten the clamping screw firmly.
Switch action (Fig. 4)
CAUTION:
• Before plugging in the tool, always check to see that
the slide switch actuates properly and returns to the
"OFF" position when the rear of the slide switch is
depressed.
To start the tool, slide the slide switch toward the "I (ON)"
position. For continuous operation, press the front of the
slide switch to lock it.
To stop the tool, press the rear of the slide switch, then
slide it toward the "O (OFF)" position.
Electronic function
The tools equipped with electronic function are easy to
operate because of the following features.
Constant speed control
Electronic speed control for obtaining constant speed.
Possible to get fine finish, because the rotating speed is
kept constant even under load condition.
Soft start
Soft-start feature minimizes start-up shock, and makes
the tool start smoothly.
Overload protector
When the tool would be employed over the admissible
load, it will stop automatically to protect the motor and
wheel. When the load will come to the admissible level
again, the tool can be started automatically.
