6. Check the cutter size, attachment direction,
attachment bolt and spacer.
(1) The cutter size differs according to the size of the
studs to be cut. Make sure that a cutter is attached
that conforms to the size of the studs to be cut.
(2) Cutter attachment includes directionality. Make sure
that the cutter has been attached so that the side
without the notch on the cutter can be seen on
bracket (A) (movable side) when the main unit is
viewed from the front or that the notch on the cutter
surface can be seen on bracket (B) (fixed side).

(3) Use the accessory hexagonal wrench to insure that
the hex. socket hd. bolt for attaching the cutter is
securely tightened (Fig. 2). Using the equipment
while the bolt is loose could cause damage to the
main unit and cutter.
(4) Depending on the size of the studs it may be
necessary to attach special spacers to the cutter.
1 When using the M10, M8 or M6 cutter
Check and confirm that the accessory M6, M8 or
M10 spacers are correctly inserted respectively
between bracket (A) and the cutter and bracket (B)
and the cutter (Fig. 2).
CAUTION
If the spacers are not attached or if spacers of the
wrong size are used, the threads of the cutter and
the studs will not properly mesh, thereby causing
damage to the studs and the cutter edge. Be sure
to attach spacers correctly.
2 When using the W3/8" cutter
No spacers are required. Check and confirm that
only the cutter is attached.
For details, refer to the section on "Cutter life and
replacement" on page 6.
7. Correctly insert the stud guide.
The stud guide is used to prevent tilting during
cutting of studs. Correctly adjust the dial calibration
to the mark ( ) depending on the size of the stud
to be cut (Fig. 3).
CAUTION
If the size of the stud and the dial position to do
not agree, the cut section may be subjected to burrs
or its shape may be distorted, which may result in
damage to the main unit.

8. Check plug receptacle.
If a receptacle jounces or a plug comes out easily
when a power cord is plugged in, the receptacle
needs to be repaired. Consult the nearest electric
service station for repair. Continued use of the
defective receptacle can result in overheating and
accidents.

HOW TO USE

CAUTIONS
Never bring the cutter near your fingers when
operating the trigger switch.
When cutting short studs, take caution as to not
place your fingers in the space between the stud
and main unit, such as the guard section (see
Fig. 4), battery, etc.
After cutting, the cut section of the stud is very
sharp and therefore dangerous. Be very careful
when handling the stud.

1. Normal cutting method
(1) Lightly pull the trigger switch and move bracket (A),
stopping with the cutter in the open position shown
in Fig. 4.
(The switch is a variable speed switch. Lightly pulling
the trigger switch will cause bracket (A) to move
slowly.)
(2) As shown in Fig. 5, set the stud to be cut in the
cutter on the bracket (B) side, making sure that the
threads correctly mesh with each other.
(3) While maintaining the stud in a horizontal position,
pull the trigger switch all the way to cut the stud
(Fig. 4).
(4) After cutting turn off the switch with bracket (A)
facing directly upward. The unit stops with the
cutter in the open position, thus making it easier
to proceed to the next operation.
