FOR USE OF THE CUT-OFF MACHINE
WARNING
Death or serious bodily injury could result from
improper or unsafe use of the cut-off machine.
To avoid these risks, follow these basic safety
instructions:
1. Always use proper guard with grinding wheel.

DOUBLE INSULATION FOR SAFER
OPERATION
To ensure safer operation of this power tool, metabo HPT
has adopted a double insulation design. "Double
insulation" means that two physically separated insulation
systems have been used to insulate the electrically
conductive materials connected to the power supply from
the outer frame handled by the operator. Therefore, either
the symbol " " or the words "Double insulation" appear
on the power tool or on the nameplate.
Although this system has no external grounding, you must
still follow the normal electrical safety precautions given in
this Instruction Manual, including not using the power tool
in wet environments.
To keep the double insulation system effective, follow
these precautions:
○ Only metabo HPT AUTHORIZED SERVICE CENTER
should disassemble or assemble this power tool, and
only genuine metabo HPT replacement parts should
be installed.
○ Clean the exterior of the power tool only with a soft
cloth moistened with soapy water, and dry thoroughly.
Never use solvents, gasoline or thinners on plastic
components; otherwise the plastic may dissolve.
