Wall Chaser
Functionality
A wall chaser is equipped with two parallel cutting discs that make simultaneous cuts in the wall. The distance between the discs can be adjusted depending on the required groove width. The material between the cuts is then removed with a chisel to create the groove.
Advantages
- Precision: Straight and even cuts for a professional finish.
- Speed: Much faster than manual methods.
- Cleanliness: Many models include dust extraction systems.
Application Mainly used in construction and renovation. Basic steps:
- Mark the desired groove on the wall.
- Set cutting depth and disc spacing.
- Guide the wall chaser along the mark.
- Remove material between cuts with a chisel.
Safety Measures
- Wear safety goggles and hearing protection.
- Use a dust mask.
- Ensure the tool is well-maintained and blades are sharp.
