Operating Instructions
!
Warning!
The wheel guard is adjustable. It is
extremely important that the wheel
guard is in place and set to suit the type
of work and your stance. The guard
should always be adjusted so that the
user is not endangered by particles of
the material being cut, sparks or pieces
of damaged wheels either directly or by
ricochet. Failure to follow this instruction
could result in serious or fatal injury.
!
Warning!
Frequently check the wheel when it is
stopped for cracks and make sure that it
is undamaged and in good condition and
that no pieces have broken off. See
sections on "Abrasive Wheels" and
"Reactive Forces" in this manual. Check
the wheel guard for cracks. If you
discover any cracks, fit a new guard.

Warning!
It is essential to determine the direction
of the cut exactly before applying the
abrasive wheel to the work. Wheels are
constructed for radial pressure only.
Lateral pressure must be avoided. Hold
the cut-off machine steady. To reduce
the risk of serious or fatal injury, do not
change the direction of the cut during the
cut as this may produce a high torsional
load on the abrasive wheel and may
cause it to break or shatter.
!
Warning!
Do not use abrasive wheels for rough
grinding. Large bending stresses occur
during such work and abrasive wheels
may shatter or break and could cause
serious or fatal injury.
!
Warning!
To reduce the risk of injury from
shattered abrasive wheels:
1. Do not exceed the maximum
operating speed marked on the
wheel.
2. Do not use a wheel that has been
dropped.
3. Do not cut any material for which the
abrasive wheel is not authorized.
4. Do not grind on side of the abrasive
wheel.
5. Do not twist, thrust, knock or drop
the machine. This can cause
damage to the wheel.
To achieve a clean and efficient cut, pull
the abrasive wheel across the work or
move it "to and fro" in the cutting
direction. Do not use force to push the
abrasive wheel into the work.
Insert the wheel into the material only as
deep as necessary to make the cut. To
reduce the amount of dust created, do
not cut all the way through stone and
concrete materials - leave a thin piece
uncut. For most such materials, this
piece can be easily broken afterwards.
Do not cock, jam or wedge the wheel in
the cut.
Always stop the engine and be sure the
wheel has stopped rotating before
setting down the cut-off machine.
