no one is in the immediate vicinity when starting the machine or while working
with the machine to avoid distractions and control of the Power Cutter. This cutoff saw is a
one-person tool.
Avoid using the tool
in unfavorable weather conditions.
Ensure that
the work area is clear and that you have a firm foothold before operating this
tool. Be aware of potential obstacles and ensure that when cutting, no material can become
loose and fall, as this could cause injuries.
Take great care
when working on uneven surfaces
.
Make sure
clothing and parts of the body do not come into contact with the Cutting Blade
when the engine is started.
Maintain
a safe distance from the Cutting Blade when the engine is running.
The Blade Guard
should always be fitted when the engine is running.
Ensure that
the work area is sufficiently illuminated to create a safe working environment.
Do not move
the Power Cutter when the Blade is rotating.
Some working positions
may create greater stress on the operator.
Make sure that
no pipes or electrical cables are routed in the area to be cut.
Cutting Technique
The technique described below is a general guideline. Check the
specific information for each Blade regarding individual cutting
characteristics (for example, a Diamond Blade requires less feeding
pressure than an Abrasive Disc).
1. Ensure that the work piece is fully supported to prevent
unpredictable movement.
2. Always cut with the throttle at full.
3. Do not force or squeeze the Blade into position.
