• Maintain a safe distance from the cutting blade when
the engine is running. Do not try to stop a rotating
blade with any part of your body.
• Never move the machine when the cutting
equipment is rotating. Be sure that the blade has
come to a complete stop before the machine is put
on the ground.
• The guard for the cutting equipment should be
adjusted so that the rear section is flush with the
work piece. Spatter and sparks from the material
being cut are then collected up by the guard and led
away from the user. The guards for the cutting
equipment must always be fitted when the product is
running.
• Never use the kickback zone of the blade for cutting.
Kickback on page 16 for instructions.

• Use extra caution when making a "pocket cut" into
existing walls or other blind areas. The protruding
wheel may cut gas or water pipes, electric wiring or
objects that can cause kickback.
• Keep a good balance and a firm foothold.
• Never cut above shoulder height.
• Never cut from a ladder. Use a platform or scaffold if
the cut is above shoulder height.
• Do not overreach.
• Stand at a comfortable distance from the work piece.
• Always ensure you have a safe and stable working
position.
• Check that the blade is not in contact with anything
when the product is started.
• Apply the cutting blade gently with high rotating
speed (full throttle). Maintain full speed until cutting
is complete.
• Let the product work without forcing or pressing the
blade.

• Feed down the product in line with the blade.
Pressure from the side can damage the blade and is
very dangerous.
• Move the blade slowly forwards and backwards to
achieve a small contact area between the blade and
the material to be cut. This reduces the temperature
of the blade and ensures effective cutting.
Power tool use and care
• Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power
tool for your application. The correct power tool will
do the job better and safer at the rate for which it
was designed.
• Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn
it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be
controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be
repaired.
• Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or
the battery pack from the power tool before making
any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing
power tools. Such preventive safety measures
reduce the risk of starting the power tool
accidentally.
• Store idle power tools out of the reach of children
and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power
tool or these instructions to operate the power tool.
Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained
users.
• Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or
binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any
other condition that may affect the power tool´s
operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired
before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly
maintained power tools.
