2. SPECIAL SAFETY RULES
1. For your own safety, read these safety instructions before
you put the electric tool into operation. Familiarize yourself
with the tools operating range and limits, as well as the
special hazards involved in its operation.
2. Do not remove any safety devices.
3. Avoid hazardous ambient conditions. Never use electric
tools in damp or wet locations, and never expose them
to rain. Keep your work area clean. Ensure that there is
sufficient space at your place of work.
4. Make the machine child-proof. Fit a pad-lock, deactivate
the main switch or remove the
start key.
5. Do not overload your electric tool. Electric tools work
better and safer when used within their quoted capacity
range.
6. Secure your workpiece. Use clamps or a vice to hold the
workpiece securely. This is safer than using your hand.
7. Take care of your electric tools. Keep mounted
attachments such as cut-off wheels, blades and bits sharp
and clean to enable you to work well and safely. Follow the
maintenance regulations and the instructions for changing
mounted attachments such as cut-off wheels, blades
and bits. Check the electric tool’s cable regularly and
have it replaced by an authorized specialist if damaged.
Check your extension cables regularly and replace them if
damaged. Keep handles dry and free from oil and grease.
8. Do not climb on your electric tool. The tool may topple and
cause an injury.
9. Check the electric tool for damage. Each time before
reusing the electric tool, carefully check that the safety
devices or any slightly damaged parts are working as
intended. Check that the moving parts are in good
working order, that they do not jam, and that no parts are
damaged. All parts must be correctly assembled and meet
all the conditions required to ensure that the electric tool
works correctly. Unless otherwise stated in the operating
instructions, damaged safety devices and parts have to
be repaired or replaced by an authorized service center.
Have damaged switches replaced by a customer service
workshop.
10. Direction of operation: Make sure that the direction arrow
points toward the workpiece.
11. Never leave an electric tool unattended when it is running.
Always switch off your electric tool before leaving it. Wait
until the tool stops moving completely.
12. Connect your electric tool to earth. An electric tool with
a PE conductor may only be connected to a matching
socket-outlet.
13. Keep your electric tools in a safe place. When equipment is
not being used it should be kept in a dry, closed place out
of children’s reach.
14. Connect up a dust extraction system. If there are provisions
for connecting up a dust extraction and collection system,
make sure that such a system is connected and in use.
15.
CAUTION!
The use of mounted attachments and
accessories other than those intended may put you at risk
of injury.
16. Do not lose these safety regulations.
17.
CAUTION!
Never use your cut-off machine unless it is
fully assembled and installed as described in this manual.
If you are not acquainted with the use of a cut-off machine,
get advice from a supervisor, trainer or other qualified
person.
18. Wear safety goggles, a visor, a breathing mask, an apron,
safety shoes, long tight sleeves and gloves.
19. Use only recommended, reinforced cut-off wheels.
20. Securely tighten the shaft screw and all clamps before
beginning your work.
21. Make sure that the shaft lock is released before starting.
22. Always leave the safety devices in position and make sure
that they are in good working order.
23. Keep your hands away from the cut-off wheel.
24. Secure the workpiece carefully. It has to be securely
clamped in a straight position in order to prevent it from
moving and skewing while the cut is being made.
25. Never cut free-handed.
26. Never reach behind or near the cut-off wheel.
27. Make sure that the cut-off wheel stops completely before
you remove the workpiece, clamp in a new workpiece, or
adjust the angle.
28. Make sure that there are no foreign bodies on the cut-off
wheel and flange.
29. When you fit a cut-off wheel, take care to tighten the
shaft screw just enough to hold the wheel in place and
prevent it from spinning. Overtightening the shaft screw
may damage the cut-off wheel or cause it to break off the
wheel flange.
30. Use only recommended cut-off wheels that are suitable for
3800/min or higher and are marked accordingly.
31. Always check the cut-off wheel for cracks or other signs
of damage. Replace cracked or damaged cut-off wheels
immediately.
32. Use only the cut-off wheel flanges specified for your
machine.
33. Before you switch on, make sure that the cut-off wheel
does not touch the machine.
