wheel. This can lead to kickback,
other reactive forces or a shattered
composite cutting wheel, which
could result in severe or fatal
personal injury.
If necessary, leave small sections
N
that hold the part that is to be
separated in position. Break these
sections manually with a hammer or
other appropriate tool after making
the last cut.
If the outer diameter of the pipe or other
round, hollow body is smaller than the
maximum cutting depth of the wheel:
Make one cut from the top to the
N
bottom of the pipe.
If the outer diameter of the pipe or other
round, hollow body is greater than the
maximum cutting depth of the wheel:
Plan first, then cut. The sequence shown
in this manual is illustrative and not
meant to substitute for the judgment of
the experienced workmen with actual
knowledge of on-site conditions.
However, the last cut must always be
made in such a way that the cutting
wheel cannot become pinched, bound
or clamped and so that the operator, co-
workers and bystanders are not at risk of
being injured by a falling part that has
been cut off or out, by cutting debris or
sparks. Generally, this should be in the
24
top portion of the pipe using the bottom
section of the cutting wheel with the
guard covering the top of the wheel.
If the pipe is in-ground or otherwise
cannot be rolled:
Support the pipe and chock it if
N
necessary to prevent it from rolling,
moving or vibrating.
Rotate the guard to the rear limit
N
stop.
A
To reduce the risk of pinching or
N
binding and kickback, start cutting in
the lower section of the pipe.
Illustration A.
B
Use the front and upper part of the
N
abrasive wheel for cutting the
opposite lower side. Make sure that
the cut at the bottom is complete.
Illustration B.
C
Next, make a cut from the top half of
N
the pipe down, connecting with the
cut from the lower half.
Illustration C. Do not attempt to twist
or bend the machine or wheel to join
the two cuts.
D X
Make a cut in the marked area
N
shown above, leaving uncut the
section labeled "X" in the illustration.
Connect the cut with the cut in the
lower half. Do not attempt to twist or
bend the machine or wheel to join
the two cuts. To keep the pipe from
pinching, binding or clamping, do
not cut into the area labeled "X."
Illustration D.
Only make the final top cut once all
bottom and lateral cuts have been
completed and connect with one
another.
