SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR CUTTERS
Safety warnings for cutting equipment
The guard supplied with the tool must be safely attached to it and adjusted in a position that provides a maximum level
of safety – so that as little part of the cutting disc as possible is exposed towards the operator. Position yourself and
unauthorised persons away from the rotating disc plane. The guard helps will protect the operator from fragments of a broken
disc and accidental contact with the disc.
Use only diamond cutting discs in the cutter. Just because an accessory can be mounted in a power tool does not make it
safe to operate.
The rated speed of the accessory must be at least equal to the maximum rated speed indicated on the power tool. Acces-
sories moving faster than their rated speed may break and fall apart.
Discs must only be used for recommended applications. For example, do not grind with the side surface of discs for
cutting. Cutting grinding wheels are designed for edge grinding; lateral forces applied to them may cause them to fall apart.
Always use undamaged mounting fl anges that are the right size for the selected disc. Right fi xing fl anges strengthen the
disc and reduce the possibility of its falling apart.
The outer diameter and thickness of the accessory must be within the rated range of the power tool. It is not possible to
properly protect or operate improperly sized accessories.
The size of the disc mounting hole and fl anges must match the size of the power tool spindle. Discs and fl anges with a
fi xing hole size not suitable for the tool spindle size loose their balance and will start to vibrate during operation, which may result
in the loss of control over the tool.
Do not use damaged cutting discs. Before each use, check the discs for splinters and cracks. If any discs are dropped,
make sure they are not damaged, or mount new, undamaged discs. After you have checked and installed the discs,
make sure you and all bystanders stand outside the rotation plane of the discs, then run the power tool for one minute
at maximum speed without load. Damaged discs usually fall apart during the test.
Wear personal protective equipment. Use face shields, goggles, or safety goggles, depending on the application. If
applicable, use dust masks, hearing protection, safety gloves, and aprons capable of protecting against small pieces of
the grinding wheel or splinters generated during work. The eye protection must be capable of stopping any fl ying debris gen-
erated during di ff erent jobs. The dust mask must be capable of fi ltering out particles generated during work. Prolonged exposure
to noise can cause hearing loss.
Keep a safe distance between bystanders and the work area. Any person entering the work area must wear personal
protective equipment. Splinters produced during the work or splinters of damaged accessories
may be thrown outside the immediate vicinity of the work area.
Hold the tool by the insulated grips only, when working where the cutting accessory may come into contact with the
hidden cord or power cord of the tool. The cutting accessory coming into contact with live cable causes the metal parts of the
tool become live and electrocute the operator.
Keep the cable away from the rotating accessory. If you lose control, the cord can be cut or drawn in, and your hand or arm
can be pulled towards the rotating disc.
Never put the power tool down until the accessory has stopped completely. A rotating accessory can catch the surface and
pull the power tool, depriving you of control of it.
Never operate the power tool while holding it on your side. Accidental contact with a rotating accessory can catch your cloth-
ing by pulling the accessory towards your body.
Clean the power tool’s ventilation openings regularly. The motor fan can suck dust inside the housing, excessive accumula-
tion of powdered metal may result in the risk of electric shock.
Do not use the power tool near fl ammable materials. Do not operate the power tool if it is placed on a combustible sur-
face, for example a wooden surface. Sparks can ignite such materials.
Caution! Kickback towards the operator
The kickback towards the operator is caused by a sudden reaction to a locked or jammed rotating disc or other disc. Locking or
jamming causes the rotating disc to lock suddenly, which results in the uncontrolled cutting head being pushed up towards the
operator.
For example, if the abrasive disc is blocked or jammed in the material being processed, the disc edge which enters into
the jamming point may penetrate the surface of the material, causing the disc to get out or be ejected.
The disc can also be ejected towards or away from the operator, depending on the direction of the grinding wheel movement at
the jamming point. Abrasive discs may also break in these conditions.
The kickback towards the operator is a result of misuse of the power tool and/or improper operating procedures or conditions and
can be avoided with appropriate remedies as outlined below.
Use a fi rm grip on the power tool and the correct position of the body and arms which withstand the kickback forces. The
operator will be able to control the tool rotation or the kickback if appropriate precautions are taken.
Keep your hands away from the rotating accessory. The accessory may kick back towards your hands.
Never place your body in the rotating disc line. If a kickback occurs, it will point the cutting head towards the operator.
Pay special attention when machining corners, sharp edges, etc. Avoid raising and jamming the accessory. Corners,
