FAQs

What type of air compressor is recommended?

A compressor capable of delivering consistent pressure and sufficient CFM (Cubic Feet per Minute) to maintain the tool's 20,000rpm free speed is recommended for optimal performance. Consult your compressor's specifications.

Can I use larger discs with this tool?

No, this tool is designed specifically for 3" (75mm) discs. Using larger discs can be dangerous and will damage the tool.

Are the discs included suitable for all metals?

Yes, the included 1mm thick discs are designed for use on all metals, including stainless steel.

How often should I lubricate the tool?

It is recommended to lubricate the tool with a few drops of air tool oil via the air inlet after every few hours of use, or daily for frequent users.

What is the center bore size of the discs?

The discs have a standard 3/8" (9.5mm) center bore.

Does the kit include an air hose?

No, the kit includes the air cut off tool and discs. An air hose and compressor are required but sold separately.

Troubleshooting

Tool not starting or running slowly

Check air compressor is on and providing adequate pressure. Ensure the air hose connection is secure and free of leaks. Verify the lever throttle is being engaged properly. Lubricate the tool's air inlet with air tool oil.

Excessive vibration during use

Ensure the disc is securely mounted and not damaged. Check for any foreign debris around the spindle. Verify the disc's RPM rating is compatible with the tool.

Disc breaks during operation

Confirm the disc is rated for the tool's speed (20,000rpm) and is the correct type (cutting/grinding). Do not apply excessive force. Ensure the disc is mounted flat and correctly.

Air leaks from the tool

Inspect the air hose connection at the tool for tightness. Check for damage to the air inlet fitting. If leaks persist, the tool may require professional servicing.
