c) When wheel is binding or when interrupting
a cut for any reason, switch off the power
tool and hold the power tool motionless until
the wheel comes to a complete stop. Never
attempt to remove the cut-off wheel from the
cut while the wheel is in motion otherwise
kickback may occur. Investigate and take
corrective action to eliminate the cause of
wheel binding.
d) Do not restart the cutting operation in the
workpiece. Let the wheel reach full speed
and carefully reenter the cut. The wheel may
bind, walk up or kickback if the power tool is
restarted in the workpiece.
e) Support panels or any oversized workpiece
to minimize the risk of wheel pinching and
kickback. Large workpieces tend to sag under
their own weight. Supports must be placed
under the workpiece near the line of cut and
near the edge of the workpiece on both sides
of the wheel.
f) Use extra caution when making a “pocket cut”
into existing walls or other blind areas. The
protruding wheel may cut gas or water pipes,
electrical wiring or objects that can cause
kickback.
Special safety instructions
• Check that the maximum speed indicated on
the disc corresponds to the maximum speed of
the machine. The speed of the machine must
not exceed the value on the disc.
• Make sure that the dimensions of the disc cor-
res pond to the specifications of the machine.
• Make sure that the disc has been mounted and
fastened properly. Do not use reducing rings or
adapters to make the disc fit properly.
• Never use this machine single handed. Always
use both hands to operate the machine.
• Do not touch any rotating parts.
• Make sure the wool bonnet is not contacting
the workpiece before the machine is switched
on.
• Do not touch the workpiece immediately after
operation. It may be hot.
• Warning: The wheel still rotates after the
machine has been switched off
• Hold the machine by the insulated grips when
performing an operation where contact can be
made with hidden wiring or its own cord.
• Before use, inspect the disc for any damage.
Do not use discs which are crack-ed, ripped or
otherwise damaged.
• Before use, let the machine run idle for 30
seconds. Immediately switch off the machine
in case of abnormal vibrations or occurrence of
another defect. Carefully inspect the machine
and disc before switching the machine on
again.
• Always wear safety goggles and hearing
protection.
• Ensure that mounted wheels and points are
fitted in accordance with the manufacturer’s
instructions.
• For tools intended to be fitted with threaded
hole wheel, ensure that the thread in the wheel
is long enough to accept the spindle length.
• Ensure that ventilation openings are kept clear
when working in dusty conditions. If it should
become nessesary to clear dust, first
disconnect the tool from the mains supply (use
non metallic objects) and avoid damaging
internal parts.
• Though poor conditions of the electrical mains,
shortly voltage drops can appear when starting
the equipment. This can influence other
equipment (eq. blinking of a lamp). If the
mains-impedance Zmax <0.348 Ohm, such
disturbances are not expected. (In case of
need, you may contact your local supply
authority for further information.
Immediately switch off the machine when:
• Excessive sparking of the carbon brushes and
verticiliosis in the collector.
• Interruption of the mains plug, mains lead or
mains lead damage.
• Defect switch
• Smoke or stench of scorched isolation
Electrical safety
When using electric machines always observe the
safety regulations applicable in your country to
reduce the risk of fire, electric shock and perso nal
injury. Read the following safety instructions and
also the enclosed safety instructions.
Always check that the power supply
corres ponds to the voltage on the rating
plate.
Your machine is double insulated;
therefore no earthwire is required.
