 The part of the work piece to be sawn off must be able to move freely. It may not be held
or clamped, and no length stop may be used in this regard. It could wedge against the
cut-off wheel and pose a risk of accident.
 When using this device keep your fingers a safe distance from the cutting area.
9.3 Never saw with an unsupported hand
 Never cut more than one work piece at a time.

Only remove filings, waste and work pieces when the machine has come to a complete
stop.
Never touch the cut material until it has cooled down.
– Risk of burns!
9.4 Operation:
Always observe the safety warnings and applicable regulations.

Before beginning to saw, ensure that the cut-off wheel protective hood is in the correct
position.
 Start the cut-off saw by pressing switch (A) on the inside of the D-handle.
 You must wait until the cut-off wheel has achieved the maximum number of revolutions
before using the saw.
 Slowly and evenly push the saw head downward on the D-handle.
 After sawing you must bring the saw head back to the starting position.
 Use the switch to power the saw off.
 Always wait until the cut-off wheel has come to a complete stop before switching on the
device again or making adjustments.
Always check the condition of the cut-off wheel before doing any work with
this device. Only work with a flawless cut-off wheel!
Never let other people stand behind the saw or close to the work piece, as
there is a risk of waste material being thrown out.
