depth of cut. Overstressing the wheel increases the loading and susceptibility to twisting or binding the
wheel in the cut and the possibility of kickback or wheel breakage.
• When wheel is binding or when interrupting a cut for any reason, switch off the power tool and
hold the power tool motionless until the wheel comes to a complete stop. Never attempt to
remove the cut-off 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.
• 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.
• Support panels or 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.
• Use extra caution when making a "pocket cut" into existing walls or other blind areas. The
protruding wheel may cut gas or water pipes, electrical wiring or objects that can cause kickback.
Cut-Off Machine Safety Warnings - Additional Safety Rules
WARNING: Avoid cutting in the upper quadrant of the
blade, especially when beginning the cut. This area is
highly likely to lead to kickback.
WARNING: When cutting plastics, do not allow the plastic
to melt. If the plastic melts, it can stick to the blade,
leading to kickback.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

The network voltage must conform to the voltage indicated on the tool name plate. Under no
circumstances should the tool be used when the power supply cable is damaged. A damaged cable
must be replaced immediately by an authorized Customer Service Center. Do not try to repair the
damaged cable yourself. The use of damaged power cables can lead to an electric shock.
WARNING: Never operate a damaged machine. Always tag a damaged machine and take it out of
service until repairs can be made.
WARNING: These machines are equipped with a Portable
Residual Current Device (PRCD) also known as a Ground Fault
Circuit Interrupter (GFCI). Always use this device whenever
using the machine to reduce the risk of shock hazards.
Always position the PRCD as close as possible to the power
source. Test and reset the PRCD device before each use. Press
the "Test" button to test. Press the "Reset" button to energize
the circuit to the machine.
