• Allow the disc to reach full speed, then gently lower it on to the work.

DO NOT try to cut too harshly.

Release the trigger to stop the motor.

• The disc will continue to rotate

briefly after switching off.

The machine is fitted with a thermal

overload device which is designed to

cut the power in the event of

overheating. If the machine should

stop after a period of sustained work,

allow it to cool down for a few

minutes before pressing the Thermal

Reset button shown.

NOTE: Take particular care when cutting with a new disc. Do not press too

heavily, particularly at the end of a cut.

The depth stop is factory set for a new

14" (355 mm) cutting disc. This can be

adjusted as the disc wears away.

1. Loosen the locking nut.

2. Loosen the depth stop bolt.

3. Adjust the depth stop bolt to

desired height.

Then turn the locking nut until seated

firmly against the casting.

NOTE: Securely tighten the depth stop bolt before use.

TIPS FOR MORE ACCURATE CUTS

• Allow the cutting disc to do the cutting. Excessive force will cause

the cutting disc to glaze reducing cutting efficiency and/or to

deflect causing inaccurate cuts.

• Adjust the fence angle.

• Make sure the workpiece is laying flat across the base.

• Clamp the workpiece securely to avoid movement and vibration.

GENERAL CARE OF THE MACHINE

Take care to keep the ventilation openings clear when working in dusty

conditions. Always disconnect the machine from the power supply before

cleaning the openings using a soft brush if necessary. Refer to your CLARKE

dealer if internal maintenance is required.
