Cutting techniques
There is a risk of kickback if the cut-off saw comes into contact with the working surface in the area indicated.
Kickback is the result of product misuse and/or incorrect operating procedures or conditions. To prevent
kickback, follow the safety instructions and the instructions for use below.
▶
Avoid bringing the cut-off saw into contact with the working surface in the area indicated.
▶
Allow the cut-off saw to reach full speed before starting the cut.
▶
Bring the cut-off wheel into contact with the workpiece at right angles and below the axis of rotation.
▶
Apply pressure to the cut-off saw so that the cut-off wheel is pressed into the material slowly.
▶
Apply moderate pressure, adjusting the rate of advance to suit the material being cut.
A decrease in the rate of cutting progress may be an indication of blunt/dull (“polished”) diamond
segments. The diamond segments can be resharpened by making a few cuts in an abrasive
material (
Hilti
sharpening plate or sand-lime block).
▶
Guide the cut-off saw smoothly and without applying lateral pressure to the cut-off wheel.
▶
Always hold the cut-off saw firmly with both hands on the grips provided. Keep the grips dry, clean and
free from oil and grease.
▶
Make sure there is no-one in the working area and, in particular, in the direction in which the cut is to be
made. Keep everyone approx. 15 m away from your workplace.
6.3
Avoiding stalling
CAUTION
Risk of cut-off wheel breakage or kickback.
Application of excessive pressure causes distortion of the
cut-off wheel. Sticking or stalling of the cut-off wheel increases the probability of kickback or cut-off wheel
breakage.
▶
Avoid applying excessive pressure when cutting and don’t allow the cut-off wheel to stick and stall.
▶
Don’t attempt to make an excessively deep cut.
