information must be observed.
General Safety Instructions
For your own protection and for the protection of your electrical tool, pay
attention to all parts of the text that are marked with this symbol!
WARNING – Reading the operating instructions will reduce the risk of
injury.
WARNING – Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations and
specifications provided with this power tool.
Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock,
fire and/or serious injury. ”
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference. Pass on your
electrical tool only together with these documents.
Special Safety Instructions
4.1 Cut-off machine safety warnings
a) Position yourself and bystanders away from the plane of the rotating wheel.
The guard helps to protect the operator from broken wheel fragments and
accidental contact with wheel.
b) Use only bonded reinforced cut-off wheels for your power tool. Just because
an accessory can be attached to your power tool, it does not assure safe
operation.
c) The rated speed of the accessory must be at least equal to the maximum
speed marked on the power tool. Accessories running faster than their rated
speed can break and fly apart.
d) Wheels must be used only for recommended applications. For example: do not
grind with the side of a cut-off wheel. Abrasive cut-off wheels are intended
for peripheral grinding, side forces applied to these wheels may cause them to
shatter.
e) Always use undamaged wheel flanges that are of correct diameter for your
selected wheel. Proper wheel flanges support the wheel thus reducing the
possibility of wheel breakage.
f) The outside diameter and the thickness of your accessory must be within
the capacity rating of your power tool. Incorrectly sized accessories cannot
be adequately guarded or controlled.
g) The arbour size of wheels and flanges must properly fit the spindle of the
power tool. Wheels and flanges with arbour holes that do not match the
mounting hardware of the power tool will run out of balance, vibrate
excessively and may cause loss of control.
h) Do not use damaged wheels. Before each use, inspect the wheels for chips
and cracks. If the power tool or wheel is dropped, inspect for damage or
install an undamaged wheel. After inspecting and installing the wheel,
position yourself and bystanders away from the plane of the rotating wheel and
run the power tool at maximum no load speed for one minute. Damaged wheels
will normally break apart during this test time.
i) Wear personal protective equipment. Depending on application, use face
shield, safety goggles or safety glasses. As appropriate, wear dust mask,
hearing protectors, gloves and shop apron capable of stopping small abrasive
or workpiece fragments. The eye protection must be capable of stopping flying
debris generated by various operations. The dust mask or respirator must be
capable of filtrating particles generated by your operation. Prolonged
exposure to high intensity noise may cause hearing loss.
j) Keep bystanders a safe distance away from work area. Anyone entering the
work area must wear personal protective equipment. Fragments of workpiece or
of a broken wheel may fly away and cause injury beyond immediate area of
operation.
k) Position the cord clear of the spinning accessory. If you lose control, the
cord may be cut or snagged and your hand or arm may be pulled into the
spinning wheel.
l) Regularly clean the power tool’s air vents. The motor’s fan can draw the
dust inside the housing and excessive accumulation of powdered metal may cause
electrical hazards.
m) Do not operate the power tool near flammable materials. Do not operate the
power tool while placed on a combustible surface such as wood. Sparks could
ignite these materials.
n) Do not use accessories that require liquid coolants. Using water or other
liquid coolants may result in electrocution or shock.
4.2 Kickback and related warnings
Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched or snagged rotating wheel. Pinching
or snagging causes rapid stalling of the rotating wheel which in turn causes
the uncontrolled cutting unit to be forced upwards toward the operator.
For example, if an abrasive wheel is snagged or pinched by the workpiece, the
edge of the wheel that is entering into the pinch point can dig into the
surface of the material causing the wheel to climb out or kick out. Abrasive
wheels may also break under these conditions.
Kickback is the result of power tool misuse and/or incorrect operating
procedures or conditions and can be avoided by taking proper precautions as
given below.
a) Maintain a firm grip on the power tool and position your body and arm to
allow you to resist kickback forces. The operator can control upward kickback
forces, if proper precautions are taken.
b) Do not position your body in line with the rotating wheel. If kickback
occurs, it will propel the cutting unit upwards toward the operator.
c) Do not attach a saw chain, woodcarving blade, segmented diamond wheel with
a peripheral gap greater than 10 mm or toothed saw blade. Such blades create
frequent kickback and loss of control.
d) Do not „jam“ the wheel or apply excessive pressure. Do not attempt to make
an excessive depth of cut. Overstressing the wheel increases the loading and
susceptibility to twisting or binding of the wheel in the cut and the
possibility of kickback or wheel breakage.
e) When the wheel is binding or when interrupting a cut for any reason, switch
off the power tool and hold the cutting unit motionless until the wheel comes
to a complete stop. Never attempt to remove the wheel from the cut while the
wheel is in motion otherwise kickback may occur. Investigate and take
corrective action to eliminate the cause of wheel binding.
f) Do not restart the cutting operation in the workpiece. Let the wheel reach
full speed and carefully re-enter the cut. The wheel may bind, walk up or
kickback if the power tool is restarted in the workpiece.
g) Support any oversized workpiece to minimize the risk of wheel pinching and
kickback. Large workpieces tend to sag under their own weight. Supports must
be placed under the workpiece near the line of cut and near the edge of the
workpiece on both sides of the wheel.
4.3 Additional Safety Instructions
Always wear eye protection and hearing protection. Put on other protective
gear if necessary, such as dust masks, gloves,helmet and apron. When judging
if face or dust masks are necessary, take into consideration whether the
workpiece to be machined or its coating are potentially harmful to health. Put
on protective clothing in case of doubt.
Wear ear protectors when working for long periods of time. High noise levels
over a prolonged period of time may affect your hearing.
Do not work with magnesium.
Do not use power tools in a damp or wet environment.
Do not use the machine in environments where there is the risk of explosion,
in which sparks can cause fire, explosions or the like.
Do not use saw blades.
Always ensure the metal cut-off machine is stable on a flat surface; when
using the cut-off machine on a workbench, always attach the metal cut-off
machine with appropriately long, sturdy screws.
Danger of crushing! Do not reach into the area of the joint when lowering the
lever!
Never operate the machine without a protective hood (7).
Always tilt protective hood (7) all the way down.
Be sure that the movable protective hood (7) is not jammed. It must be able to
move.
Check the power tool for potential damage.
- Before continuing to use the power tool, protective mechanisms or lightly damaged parts must be carefully inspected for correct operation.
- Damaged protective mechanisms and parts must be repaired or replaced by an approved specialist workshop, as long as nothing else is specified in the instruction manual.
Machine malfunctions, incl. protective hoods or cutting discs, must
immediately be reported when they occur. The malfunction must be properly
remedied.
Regularly check the connection lead of the power tool and have it repaired by
an approved expert, should it be damaged.
Regularly check extension cables and replace them, should they be damaged.
Use only three-conductor cables.
Keep the handles dry, clean and free of oil and grease.
Do not use a low-power machine for demanding jobs.
Adhere to the instructions for lubrication and tool replacement.
Store the machine in a dry, high or secured place, outside the reach of
children.
When working in dusty conditions, ensure that ventilation openings are not
blocked. Should it be necessary to remove the dust, first disconnect the power
tool from the mains.
In case of extreme dust deposits, the machine cleaning cycles must be
shortened and/or a residual-current-operated circuit-breaker (RCCB) must be
connected upstream.
When the machine is shut down via the RCCB circuit-breaker, it must be checked
and cleaned.
Use only cutting discs recommended by the manufacturer that comply with the
specifications of the respective safety standards for grinding materials, e.g.
EN 12413.
Caution! The use of other tools and accessories can result in a risk of
injury.
Cutting discs must be stored in accordance with manufacturer specifications
and handled carefully.
Wear protective gloves when handling cut-off wheels.
Store the cutting disc in a dry place. With cutting discs for dry cuts, the
strength may be reduced by moisture or water.
Handle the cutting disc with caution. Protect the cutting disc from jolts or
impacts.
Always use equipment that fulfils the following minimum requirements:
Only cutting discs with resinoid bonding and fibre reinforcement can be used.
The maximum rotationper minute (rpm) of the cutting disc must not be lower
than the machine idling speed.
Adhere to the maximum cutting disc diameter (see technical data).
Use no cutting discs that are thicker than 3 mm (3/ 32″).
The bore of the cutting disc must fit the toolholder without any clearance. Do
not use adapters or reducers.
Observe the specifications of the tool or accessory manufacturer!
Adhere to the cutting disc instruction manual. Use elastic cushioning layers
if they have been supplied with the sanding media and if required.
Be particularly cautious with the parts that are connected to the cutting
disc. Take care not to damage the spindle, flange or screw. Damage to these
parts can cause the cutting disc to break.
It must be ensured that mounted cutting discs areinstalled in accordance with
the manufacturer specifications.
Before use, make sure the cutting discs are correctly fixed and fastened, and
operate the machine in idling mode for 30 s. Immediately switcoff the machine
if strong vibrations or other malfunctions occur. Should they occur, inspect
the machine to find the cause.
When the cutting disc is used up to the wear limit (1/ 3 of the outer
diameter), replace the cutting disc.
Pull the plug out of the plug socket before any adjustments or servicing are
performed.
The cutting disc continues to rotate after the machine has been switched off.
Engage the spindle locking knob (8) only when the motor is inoperative.
Do not touch the rotating cutting disc.
Danger of injury!
When the cutting disc vibrates too strongly in idling mode, it can lead to
breakage. In case of irregularities during use, immediately switch off the
machine and have it repaired.
Secure the workpiece. Use the vice to secure the workpiece.
Do not try to saw extremely small workpieces.
During machining, the workpiece must be firmly supported and secured against
moving.
Long workpieces must be sufficiently supported.
Begin cutting only after having reached the max. rpm.
Use only the cutting edge of the cutting disc to cut.
Do not use the lateral surface of the cutting disc for grinding jobs.
When working on workpieces with curves or inclined surfaces, make sure that no
lateral pressure is applied to the cutting disc.
Ensure that sparks produced during work do not constitute a risk to the user
or other personnel and are not able to ignite inflammable substances.
Endangered areas must be protected with flameresistant covers.
Make sure that fire-risk areas are always provided with suitable fire
extinguishers.
The workpiece can be very hot after having been machined.
Caution, risk of burning!
Reducing dust exposure:
WARNING – Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling,
and other construction activities contains chemicals known to cause cancer,
birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals
are:
– Lead from lead-based paints,
– Crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, and
– Arsenic and chromium from chemically treated lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type
of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated
area, and work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that
are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.
This also applies to dust from other materials such as some timber types (like
oak or beech dust), metals, asbestos. Other known diseases are e.g.
allergic reactions, respiratory diseases. Do not let dust enter the body.
Observe the relevant guidelines and national regulations for your material,
staff, application and place of application (e.g. occupational health and
safety regulations, disposal).
Collect the particles generated at the source, avoid deposits in the
surrounding area.
Use suitable accessories for special work. In this way, fewer particles enter
the environment in an uncontrolled manner.
Use a suitable extraction unit.
Reduce dust exposure with the following measures:
- do not direct the escaping particles and the exhaust air stream at yourself or nearby persons or on dust deposits,
- use an extraction unit and/or air purifiers,
- ensure good ventilation of the workplace and keep clean using a vacuum cleaner. Sweeping or blowing stirs up dust.
- Vacuum or wash the protective clothing. Do not blow, beat or brush.
