WARNINGS AND SAFETY RULES  
1.  
Wear proper clothing. Always use ANSI-approved safety impact goggles when  
assembling or using this cutoff tool. Wear long sleeved shirts, long pants and hard-toed  
shoes. Take off any loose fitting jewelry and keep long hair covered to prevent being  
caught in moving parts.  
2.  
3.  
4.  
Wear proper breathing protection. Remember that a “dust mask” is not a breathing  
respirator. Use a respirator that uses charcoal filters for the best protection.  
Keep work area clean and well lighted. A dim and/or cluttered work area invites  
personal injury.  
Keep children and pets away from work areas. Children can be a distraction and  
should be supervised by an adult when near the work area. Never allow children to play  
with this product even if it is turned off.  
5.  
6.  
Store idle tools properly. Keep this cutoff tool out of the reach of children and untrained  
operators.  
Do not use the cutoff tool if under the influence of alcohol or prescription drugs.  
Doing so may cause damage to the tool, or personal injury. Do not use this or any tool if  
you are tired. Use common sense at all times.  
7.  
Check for damaged parts. Before using this cutoff tool, carefully check for any parts that  
may be missing or damaged and any other conditions that may affect the operation of this  
tool. Replace or repair damaged and worn parts immediately using only qualified repair  
facility.  
8.  
9.  
Always use the proper tools. This cutoff tool was designed for a specific task. Do not  
alter this tool, or use it for a purpose for which it was not intended.  
Be careful when connecting/disconnecting air supply. It is recommended to use  
quick-disconnects (not included) rather than screw-on air connections.  
10. Use compressed air only. Clean, dry regulated compressed air at 90 PSI. Never use  
oxygen, carbon dioxide, combustible gases, or any other bottled gas as a power source  
for this tool.  
11. Always disconnect air supply when this tool is not being used.  
12. Take caution as some woods contain preservatives such as copper chromium  
arsenate (CCA) which can be toxic. When cutting these materials, extra care should be  
taken to avoid inhalation and minimize skin contact.  
13. 3" Cutting wheel: Only use a standard 3" cutting disc (rated at 18,000 RPM or greater)  
with this air high speed cutter. Never use any other type of disc, blade or cutter on this air  
tool. This may cause the tool to operate incorrectly.  
NOTE: The warnings, cautions, and instructions discussed in this instruction manual  
cannot cover all possible conditions and situations that may occur. It must be  
understood by the operator that common sense and caution are factors that cannot be  
built into this product but must be supplied by the operator.  
NOTE: READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THIS PRODUCT

SET UP  
Fig. 1  
NOTE: If you are not using an automatic oiler system, before operation, add a few drops  
of Pneumatic Tool Oil to the airline connection. Add a few drops more after hour of  
continual use.  
1. You will need to prepare a 1/4" air connector (not included) to connect to the air inlet on the  
cutoff tool. First, wrap the 1/4" air connector with pipe thread seal tape (not included) before  
threading it into the inlet. Connect the 3/8" ID air source hose (not included) to a  
quick-disconnect coupler (not included) and then to the cutoff tool.  
2. Set the air pressure on your compressor to 90 PSI. Do not exceed the recommended air  
pressure of 90 PSI.  
3. Check the air connection for leaks.  
4. Disconnect from the air hose until next instructed to reconnect.  
ASSEMBLY  
The only assembly required is the mounting of a cutting wheel.  
WARNING! The cutter must be disconnected from the air supply when changing the  
cutting wheel. After disconnecting the air supply, squeeze the trigger to make sure no air  
remains in the unit.

2. Using the key, loosen and remove the locking nut and the washer.  
3. Remove and replace the cutting wheel (not included).
