sum of the lengths of the extension cords shall not exceed 30 m. If a reel extension cord is used, it must be fully unwound before
starting work.
Turning the cutter on and o ff
Before turning the tool on, grasp the tool with both hands, with the right hand on the handle and the left hand on the upper part of
the motor housing. Hold the tool with both hands whenever the blade is spinning.
The tool is started after pressing and holding the lock button and then pressing the On/O ff switch. The disc will start spinning. It is
not necessary to hold the lock button during operation.
The tool switch cannot be locked in the “on” position. Hold the switch at all times during cutting.
The tool stops when the pressure on the power switch is released. After that, the disc can keep spinning for some time. The tool
can be put away only after the disc has come to a complete standstill.
Before starting to cut, start the cutter, allow it to reach full speed and hold it in this position for approx. 30 seconds. If increased
noise, excessive vibration, sparking, visible smoke or other signs of malfunction occur during this test, turn the tool o ff immediately
and remove all abnormalities before resuming operation.
Working with the cutter
Before cutting, mark the cutting line on the workpiece to be cut. The cutter can only cut in a straight line, perpendicular to the
surface on which the tool will be led.
Wear personal protective equipment suitable to working conditions. Always wear protective goggles, protective footwear with an
anti-slip sole, a protective stand with long sleeves and legs. Hearing and respiratory protection. Use a safety helmet if necessary
Make sure you carry out all preparatory work.
Warning! When cutting wet, make sure that the water does not come into contact with live components. In particular, water must
not enter the ventilation holes or be present on the handles. Make sure that water does not fl ow down the power cord towards the
mains outlet. Contact of water with live components may cause electric shock.
After pressing the switch, allow the cutting disc to reach the rated speed and only then start cutting. It is forbidden to fi rst apply
the disc to the workpiece and then start the tool. This can jam or damage the disc or cause damage to the workpiece. This can
lead to serious injuries.
When resuming cutting, let the disc reach its rated speed and then insert it into the cutting slot.
When cutting, the disc should be lowered with a smooth motion, avoiding excessive pressure. The pressure to be exerted on the
tool should not be greater than that which is su ffi cient to cut the workpiece. Avoid hitting the workpiece with the disc.
If you start cutting from an edge, e.g., a ceramic tile edge, place the front part of the base against the workpiece to be cut and then
guide the cutter along the cutting line (VIII).
After fi nishing cutting, place the cutter so that the disc does not come into contact with any object, then turn the power tool o ff ,
and wait for the disc to stop completely.
Disconnect the power cord plug of the power tool from the power outlet and start maintenance works. In case of wet cutting, close
the water nozzle valve before putting the tool away.
Recommendations for operating the cutter
No parts of the body should be in the cutting disc rotation plane. This will reduce the risk of injury if the disc falls apart during
operation.
The disc should be led in a straight line by moving it forward. Do not tilt the disc from the plane of its rotation during cutting. Cutting
discs are not suitable for carrying lateral loads and may fall apart during operation. This poses a threat of serious injury.
Do not exert excessive pressure on the disc. Pressure on the disc should allow e ffi cient operation with the cutting edge.
Do not reach too far, the position of the body during operation should always allow you to control the tool, even in the case of
unexpected movement of the tool. When applying the spinning disc to the workpiece, prepare for a jerk towards the front of the
tool, which will cause the edge of the disc to come into contact with the workpiece being cut.
Do not lean over the tool while working.
If water does not come out of the product or comes out from a place other than the inside of the cutting disc guard, this indicates
a malfunction and the operation of the product should be stopped, and then the water system should be checked for choking and
tightness.
If water cooling is not used during operation, secure the hose and connection so that it does not come into contact with the disc
and does not interfere with the operation of the product during operation.
Always attach the objects to be cut properly to prevent unexpected movement during cutting. Refer to the information in the sec-
tion ”Safety warnings related to cuttings discs”.
Pipes should be cut by guiding the disc along the circumference, not through the cross-section of the pipe.
Secure the pipes with wedges during cutting. Make sure the ground on which the pipe rests is not crushed during operation.
Diamond discs can be dulled during operation. If the disc becomes less e ffi cient, sharpen the disc. To do this, cut the abrasive
