Hold the tool rmly. Grasp the handle with your right

electric shock by accidental cutting of an electric cable,

always hold the front grip by the designated portion as

shown in the gure.

Move the tool over the workpiece surface, keeping it at and

advancing smoothly until the cutting is completed. Keep your

cutting line straight and your speed of advance uniform.

NOTE: When the battery cartridge temperature is

low, the tool may not work to its full capacity. At this

time, for example, use the tool for a light-duty cut for

a while until the battery cartridge warms up as high

as room temperature. Then, the tool can work to its

full capacity.

NOTE: If the cutting action of the diamond wheel

begins to diminish, dress the cutting edge of the

wheel using an old discarded coarse grit bench

grinder wheel or concrete block. Dress by pressing

lightly on the outer edge of the diamond wheel.

When feeding water during cutting

CAUTION: When using a wet-type diamond

wheel, always feed water during cutting.

Connect the tool to the water supply and turn the cock

in the direction of the arrow as illustrated. Adjust the

position of the cock to obtain a gentle ow of water.
