Cut-off-Machine Safety Manual
English

Warning!
To reduce the risk of injury from loss of
control from reactive forces, including
kickback:
1. Hold the cut-off machine firmly with
both hands.
2. Maintain good balance and footing
at all times. Never cut while
standing on a ladder.
3. Position the cut-off machine in such
a way that your body is clear of the
cutting attachment. Avoid standing
in direct line with the wheel. Never
bend over the cutting attachment,
especially when the guard is pulled
back towards the top and there is a
risk of reactive forces.
4. Do not cut above shoulder height.
5. Do not cut wood or any other
material for which the abrasive
wheel is not authorized.
6. Never use circular saw blades,
carbide-tipped blades, rescue
blades, wood-cutting blades or
toothed blades of any nature. Their
use increases the risk of injury from
blade contact, thrown tips and
reactive forces, including kickback.
7. Begin cutting and continue at full
throttle.
8. Do not overreach.
9. Use your cut-off machine for cutting
only. It is not designed for prying or
shoveling away any objects.
10. Be especially alert for reactive
forces, including kickback, when
cutting with the front and upper
quadrant of the wheel.
11. Be alert to shifting of the work piece
or anything that could cause the cut
to close and pinch the wheel,
especially in the upper quadrant.
Support the work piece in such a
way that the cut remains open.
Never make a cut that results in a
binding of the wheel.
12. Use wet cutting if feasible. In a pinch
situation the water can act as a
lubricant and reduce the energy of
reactive forces.
13. Release the pressure on the cut-off
machine as you reach the end of the
cut. Too much pressure may cause
the operator to lose control of the
cut-off machine when the abrasive
wheel completes the cut. The
abrasive wheel may contact the
operator or strike some foreign
object and shatter.
14. Use extreme caution when
reentering a cut and do not turn the
wheel at an angle or push the wheel
into the cut as this may result in a
pinching of the wheel.
Gyroscopic Forces
Be alert for gyroscopic forces that are
caused by the rapid spinning of the cut-
off wheel. These forces result in
opposition to directional change, e.g.
when the operator attempts to move the
machine in a sideways direction.
