adjusting tools, metal chips, etc. Small pieces of metal or other objects that come in contact
with the rotating cutting disc can strike the operator with high speed.
1.6.11. Always firmly clamp the work piece. Do not cut work pieces that are too small to
clamp. Otherwise, the clearance of your hand to the rotating cutting disc is too small.
1.6.12. If the cutting disc becomes jammed, switch the machine off and wait until the cutting
disc comes to a complete stop. Never attempt to remove a still running cutting disc from the
cut, otherwise there is danger of kickback. Determine and correct the cause for the jamming.
1.6.13. After switching off, do not stop the cutting disc by applying lateral pressure to it. The
cutting disc can become damaged, break or lead to kickback.
1.6.14. Do not force the cutting disc into the work piece and do not apply too much pressure
when using the power tool. Particularly avoid jamming or wedging the cutting disc when
working corners or sharp edges. When the cutting disc is damaged due to abuse, cracks can
form that can lead to breakage without prior warning.
1.6.15. Wear a work apron. Pay attention that other persons are not put at risk from sparking.
Remove flammable materials in close vicinity. Sparking occurs when cutting metal.
1.6.16. Use the cut off grinder only for cutting materials mentioned under “Intended Use”.
Otherwise, the cut off grinder can be subject to overload.
1.6.17. Do not use damaged, out-of-centre or vibrating cutting discs. Damaged cutting discs
cause increased friction, binding of the cutting disc and kickback.
1.6.18. Always use cutting discs with correct size and shape (diamond versus round) of
arbor holes. Cutting discs that do not match the mounting hardware of the cut off grinder will
run eccentrically, causing loss of control.
1.6.19. Do not use accessories which are not specifically designed and recommended by
the tool manufacturer. Just because the accessory can be attached to your power tool, it does
not assure safe operation.
1.6.20. Observe the operating instructions of the cut-off wheel manufacturer for assembly
and use of the cut-off wheel. Cut-off wheels that do not fit can lead to injury as well as to
jamming, breaking or kickback.
1.6.21. Do not touch the cutting disc after working before it has cooled. The cutting disc
becomes very hot while working.
1.6.22. Secure the workpiece. A workpiece clamped with clamping devices or in a vice is
held more secure than by hand.
1.6.23. Never leave the machine before it has come to a complete stop. Cutting tools that are
still running can cause injuries.
1.6.24. Never use the machine with a damaged cable. Do not touch the damaged cable and
pull the mains plug when the cable is damaged while working. Damaged cables increase the
risk of an electric shock.
1.6.25. Inspect the cable periodically and have a damaged cable repaired by an after-sales
service centre for RAIDER power tools. Replace a damaged extension cable. This will ensure
that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
