possible arbor hole damage. See the
chapter "Diamond Cutting Wheels."
Check the wheel for cracks and make
sure that no pieces have broken off the
wheel before use. Never use any wheel,
diamond or composite, that has been
damaged.
Always mount the diamond cutting
wheel so that the arrow on the wheel
points in the direction of the rotation of
the spindle.
THE USE OF THE POWER TOOL
Transporting the STIHL Cutquik
WARNING
To reduce the risk of injury from
unintended activation and/or contact
with a moving wheel, always shut off the
engine before putting the machine down
or carrying it. The abrasive cutting wheel
continues to rotate (coast down) for a
few seconds after the throttle trigger is
released and before the brake engages.
If faster stoppage time is required, bring
the wheel to a stop by lightly contacting
the bottom of the wheel with a hard
surface. Carrying a cut-off machine with
the wheel turning or the engine running
is extremely dangerous. Contact with a
moving wheel, even if the engine is
turned off, can result in severe personal
injury or death, and accidental
acceleration of the engine can cause the
wheel to rotate if the engine is still
running.
Avoid touching the hot muffler or
allowing it to touch you.
TS 440
WARNING
Always protect the cutting wheel from
accidentally hitting the ground or any
other objects, which can increase the
risk of serious personal injury or death
from a shattered composite cutting
wheel, from loss of diamond cutting
wheel segments or from loss of control.
Transporting by hand: When carrying
your cut-off machine by hand, the
engine must be shut off and the rotating
wheel stopped, and the cut-off machine
must be correctly positioned. Grip the
front handle and place the muffler at the
side away from the body with the cutting
attachment to the rear.
Transporting by vehicle: Properly secure
your cut-off machine to prevent turnover,
fuel spillage and damage to the cut-off
machine. Never transport your cut-off
machine with a cutting wheel mounted.
A wheel damaged during transportation
can cause serious personal injury or
death.
Fuel
Your STIHL cut-off machine uses an oil-
gasoline mixture for fuel. See the
chapter "Fuel" in this instruction manual.
WARNING
Gasoline is an extremely
flammable fuel. If spilled
and ignited by a spark or
other ignition source, it
can cause fire and seri -
ous burn injury or
property damage. Use
extreme caution when
handling gasoline or an
oil-gasoline fuel mix. Do
not smoke or bring any
fire or flame near the fuel
or the power tool. Do not
remove the fuel filler cap
or attempt to refuel near
any ignition source. Note
that combustible fuel
vapor may escape from
the fuel system or gas
can during fueling
operations.
WARNING
Dust or other debris may collect on the
powerhead, especially around the
carburetor, and may absorb gasoline,
resulting in a risk of fire. Clean dust and
debris from the powerhead regularly.
Fueling Instructions
WARNING
To reduce the risk of personal injury and
property damage, fuel your cut-off
machine in well-ventilated areas,
outdoors. Always shut off the engine and
allow the machine to cool before
refueling. Never remove the fuel cap
near any ignition source.
