Cutting Capacity
The wide vise opening and high pivot point provide cutting capacity
for many large pieces. Use this chart to determine total maximum
size of cuts that can be made with a new wheel. Recommended
applications are: metal studs, electrical conduit up to 4" diameter,
bar stock and reinforcing bar up to 3/4" diameter.
NOTE: CAPACITY SHOWN ON THE FOLLOWING CHART
ASSUMES NO WHEEL WEAR.
NOTE: As cutting width increases, cutting height decreases.
CAUTION: CERTAIN LARGE , CIRCULAR OR IRREGULARLY
SHAPED OBJECTS MAY REQUIRE ADDITIONAL HOLDING
MEANS. CAUTION: DO NOT CUT MAGNESIUM WITH THIS
TOOL.
Maximum Cutting Depth
To obtain maximum cutting depth, move the fence to the rear
position (Fig. 5).
NOTE: A new wheel, when pushed all the way down, will extend
below the base and cut into the work surface.
Degree Setting
Align the index line stamped in the base with the appropriate
degree for the desired angle of cut (Fig. 6). For very accurate cuts,
use a protractor.
