Warning!
Never operate the cut-off machine with
the starting-throttle lock engaged as this
does not permit proper control of the
speed of the unit and may lead to
serious injury.
!
Warning!
Sparks from cutting metal
can burn or cause
clothing to catch fire.
Always direct sparks
away from the operator or
any flammable
surroundings. Never cut metal while
standing on a flammable surface, such
as wood or tar paper. Where there is a
risk of fire, have appropriate fire
extinguishing equipment readily
available.
!
Warning!
To reduce the risk of injury from fire, do
not cut into any pipe, drum or other
container without first ensuring that it
does not contain a volatile or flammable
substance.
!
Warning!
When cutting into existing walls, floors or
similar structures, be alert for hidden
hazards such as electrical cables, water
and gas pipes and flammable
substances. Make sure that power,
water and gas have been shut off and
pipes drained before starting to cut.
Operating Instructions
!
Warning!
The wheel guard is adjustable. It is
extremely important that the wheel
guard is in place and set to suit the type
of work and your stance. The guard
should always be adjusted so that the
user is not endangered by particles of
the material being cut, sparks or pieces
of damaged wheels either directly or by
ricochet. Failure to follow this instruction
could result in serious or fatal injury.
!
Warning!
Always check the wheel before use and
after unintentionally striking any object;
frequently check it during use when it is
stopped. Look for cracks, and make sure
that it is undamaged and in good
condition and that no pieces have
broken off. See sections on "Abrasive
Wheels" and "Reactive Forces" in this
manual. Check the wheel guard for
cracks. If you discover any breaks or
cracks, fit a new guard before further
use.
