5. Only STIHL branded diamond and
composite abrasive wheels are
recommended. The use of non-
STIHL branded wheels can be
extremely dangerous. Never work
with a diamond wheel that wobbles
or that has ever wobbled or that is
manufactured with abrasive
material on its sides.
6. Do not cut wood or any other
material for which the abrasive
wheel is not authorized.
7. Never use circular saw blades,
carbide-tipped blades, rescue
blades, wood-cutting blades or
toothed blades of any nature. Their
use increases the risk of injury from
blade contact, thrown tips and
reactive forces, including kickback.
8. Begin cutting and continue at full
throttle.
9. Do not overreach.
10. Never sideload a wheel in the kerf.
11. Use your cut-off machine for cutting
only. It is not designed for prying or
shoveling away any objects.
12. Be especially alert for reactive
forces, including kickback, when
cutting with the front and upper
quadrant of the wheel. Never pull
the top of the wheel guard back
beyond the limit stop.
13. Be alert to shifting of the workpiece
or anything that could cause the cut
to close and pinch the wheel,
especially in the upper quadrant.
Support the workpiece in such a
way that the cut remains open.
Never make a cut that results in a
binding of the wheel.

14. Use wet-cutting whenever feasible.
In a pinch situation the water can act
as a lubricant and reduce the
energy of reactive forces.
15. Release the pressure on the cut-off
machine as you reach the end of the
cut. Too much pressure may cause
the operator to lose control of the
cut-off machine when the abrasive
wheel completes the cut. The
abrasive wheel may contact the
operator or strike some foreign
object and shatter.
16. Use extreme caution when
reentering a cut and do not turn the
wheel at an angle or push the wheel
into the cut as this may result in a
binding of the wheel.
Gyroscopic Forces
Be alert for gyroscopic forces that are
caused by the rapid spinning of the cut-
off wheel. These forces result in
opposition to directional change, e.g.,
when the operator attempts to move the
machine in a sideways direction.
Maintenance, Repair and Storing of the
Cut-Off Machine
Maintenance, replacement, or repair of
the emission control devices and
systems may be performed by any
nonroad engine repair establishment or
individual. However, if you make a
warranty claim for a component that has
not been serviced or maintained
properly or if nonapproved replacement
parts were used, STIHL may deny
warranty coverage.
Never operate a cut-off machine that is
damaged, improperly adjusted or not
completely or securely assembled.
Follow the maintenance and repair
instructions in the appropriate sections
of your instruction manual.
WARNING
Use only STIHL replacement parts for
maintenance and repair. Use of parts
manufactured by others may cause
serious or fatal injury.
WARNING
Always stop the machine and make sure
that the wheel is stopped before doing
any maintenance or repair work or
cleaning the cut-off machine. Do not
attempt any maintenance or repair work
not described in your instruction manual.
Have such work performed only at your
STIHL servicing dealer.
Clean off grinding dust after finishing
work. Tighten all nuts, bolts and screws
except the carburetor adjustment
screws after each use.
Do not clean your machine with a
pressure washer. The solid jet of water
may damage parts of the machine.
WARNING
Never test the ignition system with spark
plug boot removed from spark plug or
with an unseated spark plug, since
uncontained sparking may cause a fire.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire and burn injury,
use only spark plugs authorized by
STIHL. Always press spark plug boot
