new abrasive wheel by reversing the abovesteps.

WARNING: Check the work surface that the chop saw
rests on when replacing with a new abrasive wheel. It
is possible that the wheel may contact ANY ITEMS OR
STRUCTURE THAT EXTENDS ABOVE work surface
(under the base) when the arm is fullylowered.
WARNING: Always keep the screw attached to the
guard and make sure the center guard in the right
position after replacing wheel and before use, to
protect user from high speed rotating wheel.
CAUTION: Only use 14" (335 mm) Type 1/41 wheels
with 1" (25.4 mm) arbor hole with this tool. Never
force a wheel onto the machine or alter the size of the
arborhole.
Operation Tips for More Accurate Cuts
Allow the wheel to do the cutting. Excessive force will
cause the wheel to glaze reducing cutting efficiency
and/or to deflect causing inaccuratecuts.
Properly adjust fenceangle.
Make sure material is laying flat acrossbase.
Properly clamp material to avoid movement
andvibration.
