COTR-03 Pneumatic Reversible Cut-Off Tool Pneumatic Reversible Cut-Off Tool Features Special Hub Allows for Left or Right Turning/Cutting Action Collar Operated Easy Directional Change Safety Throttle Lever Rear Exhaust Powerful Motor (0.85 HP/0.63 KW) One Year Warranty* (*See manual for details) Description Cut-Off tools are must-have items for most metal fabricators and automotive restoration shops. There are typically three different types available: In-Line Cut-Off Tool which is more or less the same idea as using a grinder to cut stone; a Standard Cut-Off Tool that is similar to a straight grinder with a safety guard for the general cutting applications; an Extended Cut-Off Tool that is designed to use for difficult to reach areas. Alpha® introduces the COTR-03 Reversible Cut-Off Tool. This cut-off tool is 8-1/16" length and has a special hub that allows for left or right turning of the cutting wheel. The direction of wheel can be changed easily by collar to direct the sparks and debris away from the operator. The operation is also comfortable with rear exhaust design. In addition, the unit has a powerful 0.85 HP motor that enhances the capacity of the Ultracut ABM series blade.
