Starting Operation.
7.1. Check the cutting disc before using. The cutting disc must be properly
mounted and must rotate freely. Carry out a 30 second test run with no load. Do not
use damaged, out-of-centre or vibrating cutting discs. Damaged cutting discs can burst
and cause injuries.
7.2. User Position.
Do not stand in a line with the cutting disc in front of the machine. Always stand
aside of the cutting disc. This measure provides for better protection of your body
against possible splinters in case of cutting disc breakage.
7.3. Switching On and Off.
To start the machine, firstly press the lock off button. Then press the On/Off switch
and keep it pressed. Note: For safety reasons, the On/Off switch cannot be locked; it
must remain pressed during the entire operation.
To switch off the machine, release the On/Off switch.
Soft starting.
The electronic soft starting feature limits the torque upon switching on and
increases the working life of the motor.
8. Working Advice.
Protect the cutting disc against impact, shock and grease. Do not subject the
cutting disc to lateral pressure. Do not strain the power tool so heavily that it comes
to a standstill. Excessive feed considerably reduces the performance capability of the
machine and shortens the service life of the cutting disc. Use only cutting discs that are
suitable for the material to be worked.
9. Maintenance and Service.
9.1. Maintenance and Cleaning.
Before any work on the machine itself, pull the mains plug.
For safe and proper working, always keep the machine and ventilation slots clean.
In extreme conditions, always use dust extraction as far as possible. Blow out
ventilation slots frequently and install a residual current device (RCD). When working
metals, conductive dust can settle in the interior of the power tool. The total insulation
of the power tool can be impaired.
9.2. Have maintenance and repair work performed only by qualified specialists. In
this manner, it can be ensured that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
The retracting blade guard must always be able to move freely and retract
automatically. Therefore, always keep the area around the retracting blade guard
clean.
10. Disposal.
The machine, accessories and packaging should be sorted for environmental-
friendly recycling. The plastic components are labelled for categorized recycling. Do
not dispose of power tools into household waste! According the European Guideline
2002/96/EC for Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment and its implementation into
national right, power tools that are no longer usable must be collected separately and
disposed of in an environmentally correct manner.
