Short names
The short name is a combination of
letters and numerals with up to four
digits:
The letters indicate the main area of
–
use for the cutting wheel.

–
performance class of the STIHL
diamond cutting wheel.
Radial and axial run-out
A correctly mounted spindle bearing on
the cut-off machine is essential for a

of the diamond cutting wheel.
Using a cutting wheel on a cut-off
machine with a malfunctioning spindle
bearing can lead to axial and radial run-
out.
