Husqvarna K 4000 Cut-n-Break Operator's Manual page 13

• The machine is only designed for cutting hard
materials, such as concrete, brick, masonry as well as
cast iron and cement pipes.
WARNING! A power cutter is a
!
dangerous tool if used carelessly or
incorrectly and can cause serious, even
fatal injuries. It is extremely important
that you read and understand the
contents of this Operator's Manual.
• Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power
tool for your application. The correct power tool will
do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was
designed.
• Do not use the power tool if the switch does not
turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be
controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be
repaired.
• Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or
the battery pack from the power tool before
making any adjustments, changing accessories,
or storing power tools. Such preventive safety
measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool
accidentally.
• Store idle power tools out of the reach of children
and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the
power tool or these instructions to operate the
power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands
of untrained users.
• Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or
binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and
any other condition that may affect the power
tool´s operation. If damaged, have the power tool
repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by
poorly maintained power tools.
• Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are
less likely to bind and are easier to control.
• Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc.
in accordance with these instructions, taking into
account the working conditions and the work to
be performed. Use of the power tool for operations
different from those intended could result in
hazardous situations.
WARNING! Under no circumstances may
!
the design of the machine be modified
without the permission of the
manufacturer. Always use genuine
accessories. Non-authorized
modifications and/or accessories can
result in serious personal injury or the
death of the operator or others.
• Make sure that no pipes or electrical cables are routed
in the working area or in the material to be cut.
OPERATING
• Always check and mark out where gas pipes are
routed. Cutting close to gas pipes always entails
danger. Make sure that sparks are not caused when
cutting in view of the risk of explosion. Remain
concentrated and focused on the task. Carelessness
can result in serious personal injury or death.
• Inspect new blades for transport or storage damage.
• The guard for the cutting equipment must always be
on when the machine is running.
Service
• Have your power tool serviced by a qualified
repair person unsing only identical replacement
parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool
is maintained.
Always use common sense
It is not possible to cover every conceivable situation you
can face. Always exercise care and use your common
sense. If you get into a situation where you feel unsafe,
stop and seek expert advice. Contact your dealer, service
agent or an experienced user. Do not attempt any task
that you feel unsure of!
