Warning!
To reduce the risk of injury from reactive
forces and/or loss of control :
1. Hold the cut-off machine firmly with
both hands.
2. Maintain good balance and footing
at all times. Never cut while
standing on a ladder.
3. Position the cut-off machine in such
a way that your body is clear of the
cutting attachment. Avoid standing
in direct line with the wheel. Never
bent over the cutting attachment,
especially when the guard is pulled
back towards the top and there is a
risk of reactive forces.

4. Do not cut above shoulder height.
5. Do not cut wood or any other
material for which the abrasive
wheel is not authorized.
6. Never use circular saw blades,
carbide-tipped blades, rescue
blades, wood-cutting blades or
toothed blades of any nature. Their
use increases the risk of injury from
reactive forces, blade contact and
thrown tips.
7. Begin cutting and continue at full
throttle.
8. Do not overreach.
9. Use your cut-off machine for cutting
only. It is not designed for prying or
shoveling away any objects.
10. Be especially alert for reactive
forces when cutting with the front of
the wheel.
11. Be alert to shifting of the work piece
or anything that could cause the cut
to close and pinch the wheel.
12. Release the pressure on the cut-off
machine as you reach the end of the
cut. Too much pressure may cause
the operator to lose control of the
cut-off machine when the abrasive
wheel completes the cut. The
abrasive wheel may contact the
operator or strike some foreign
object and shatter.
13. Use extreme caution when
reentering a cut and do not turn the
wheel at an angle or push the wheel
into the cut as this may result in a
pinching of the wheel.
