Be sure the trigger switch is in the OFF position. Do not make any adjustment while the wheel is in motion. Do not make any adjustment while chop saw is plugged into power supply. WARNING: Use only bonded reinforced cut-off wheels for your power tool. A bonded reinforced wheel is defined as a grinding wheel consisting of abrasive particles bonded together with various substances specifically for cutting steel materials. WARNING: Always use gloves when handling wheels. WARNING: Handle and store all abrasive wheels carefully to prevent damage from thermal shock, heat, mechanical damage, etc. Store in a dry protected area free from high humidity, freezing temperatures or extreme temperature changes. WARNING: Do not impact the wheel, and do not use a wheel that has been dropped or impacted. Do not use a chipped, deformed or damaged wheel. 1.
