section of the tip of the bar. Go back and cut another
few centimetres. Repeat until a depth of between 5–
10 centimetres is reached, depending on precision
demands and the thickness of the object. The pilot cut
guides the bar straight during continued cutting, which
takes place according to the plunge-cut method until
full depth is reached, use a rubber block as a break
point/stop.
Pendulum technique
•
The cut is made using a pendulum motion and the
saw is only held straight at the ends of the cut. Use the
hand guard as a break point/stop.
Cutting holes
NOTICE! If the upper horizontal cut is made before the
lower horizontal cut, the work piece will fall on the
cutting equipment and jam it.
As it is usually a question of large and heavy pieces that
are cut when using the diamond chain saw the forces are
so great that jamming can result in irreparable damage to
both the bar and chain.
Plan the work so that you do not get crushed by the bar
when the pieces fall apart. Planning is also extremely
important for your own safety!
•
First make the lower horizontal cut. Now make the two
vertical cuts. Finish with the upper horizontal cut.

When cutting out large holes it is important that the
piece to be cut out is braced so that it cannot fall
against the operator.
