Machine Compatibility
Designed for compatible 14" stationary abrasive chop saws that accept a 1" arbor Type 1 cut-off wheel and operate within the wheel's 4,365 RPM maximum.
Compatible examples include:
- Makita® LW1400
- Makita® LW1401
- Other 14" stationary abrasive chop saws specifically approved for a 1" arbor Type 1 bonded cut-off wheel
Always verify the machine's approved wheel diameter, wheel thickness, arbor, maximum RPM, flange configuration, guard, and mounting hardware before operation.
Do not substitute this wheel for a gas saw wheel. Benchmark Abrasives chop saw and gas saw wheels are separate product families with different machine and speed requirements.
Safety Tips
- Never exceed the wheel's maximum rated speed of 4,365 RPM.
- Do not use this wheel on a gas-powered cut-off saw.
- Use only on machines specifically designed for 14" Type 1 abrasive cut-off wheels.
- Keep all machine guards installed and correctly positioned.
- Inspect every wheel before use and do not use wheels that are cracked, chipped, dropped, damaged, or otherwise compromised.
- Verify that the wheel is properly mounted and secured before starting the machine.
- Allow the saw to reach full operating speed before contacting the workpiece.
- Use the wheel only for straight cutting. Do not grind with the side of the wheel or apply excessive lateral pressure.
- Use controlled cutting pressure and allow the abrasive to perform the work.
- Secure the workpiece properly before cutting and position it so the cut does not pinch or bind the wheel.
- Wear safety glasses and a face shield, hearing protection, and respiratory protection as required. Follow the saw manufacturer's clothing and hand-protection instructions; keep hands, loose clothing, and other items away from the rotating wheel.
- Keep sparks directed away from people, combustible materials, cords, hoses, and other hazards.
