Warning!
Use of the wrong abrasive wheel or the
cutting of material for which the wheel
was not designed may cause the wheel
to shatter causing serious or fatal injury.
Only use the abrasive wheel approved
for the type of material to be cut. There
are different types of abrasive wheels,
each specially marked. With respect to
composite wheels, for example:
1. Stone
Also can be used for concrete,
masonry, reinforced concrete and
brick cutting.
2. Steel
Can be used for all ferrous metal
cutting.
3. Asphalt
Also can be used for aggregate
concrete cutting.
4. Ductile iron
Also can be used for certain grades
of cast iron (SG 17-24), bronze and
copper cutting.
For cutting composite materials please
ask your STIHL dealer.
Diamond Abrasive Wheels
Diamond abrasive wheels have a much
better cutting performance than
composite abrasive wheels. The
diamond wheels are steel centered, and
diamond particles are imbedded in their
cutting edges.
They can be used for concrete, asphalt,
natural stone, clay pipe, brick and the
like.

They are not normally suitable for cutting
metal or other materials.
Wet or dry cutting is possible. Water
attachments are included with your
STIHL cut-off machine. See the
appropriate section of your instruction
manual.
Warning!
Do not remount a used diamond abra-
sive wheel without first inspecting for
under-cutting, flatness, core fatigue,
segment damage or loss, signs of over-
heating (discoloration) and 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.
Always fit the wheel so that the arrow on
the wheel points in the direction of the
rotation of the spindle.

Transporting the STIHL Cutquik
Warning!
To reduce the risk of injury from unin-
tended activation and / or contact with a
moving wheel, always stop the engine
before putting a cut-off machine down or
carrying it. The abrasive wheel contin-
ues to rotate (coast down) for a short
while after the throttle trigger is released
(flywheel effect). Bring the wheel to a
stop by lightly contacting the bottom of
the wheel with a hard surface or wait
until the wheel comes to a complete
stop on its own. Carrying a cut-off
machine with the engine running is
extremely dangerous. Accidental accel-
eration of the engine can cause the
wheel to rotate. Avoid touching the hot
muffler.
By hand: When carrying your cut-off
machine by hand, the engine must be
stopped and the cut-off machine must
be in the proper position. Grip the front
handle and place the muffler at the side
away from the body.
Warning!
Always protect the cutting wheel from
hitting the ground or any other objects.
Damaged wheels may shatter and
cause serious or fatal injury.
By vehicle: Properly secure your cut-off
machine to prevent turnover, fuel
spillage and damage to the cut-off
machine. Never transport with cutting
wheel mounted. A wheel damaged
