If possible, avoid using the upper
–
quarter of the abrasive cutting
wheel for cutting. Use extreme
caution when guiding the abrasive
cutting wheel into a cut, do not twist
or push into the cut
Avoid any wedge effect - the
–
severed part must not brake the
abrasive cutting wheel
Always be aware that the object to
–
be cut may move and other factors
may cause the cut to close and jam
the abrasive cutting wheel.
The object to be cut must be
–
secured and supported so that the
kerf remains open during and after
cutting
Objects to be cut must therefore be
–
fully supported and must be
secured against rolling away,
slipping off or vibrations

An exposed pipe must be provided
–
with a stable support that will bear
its weight, using wedges if
necessary – always bear in mind a
proper support and the nature of the
ground – material may crumble
away
Always work with water and wet
–
cutting when using diamond
abrasive cutting wheels
Depending on the version, resin
–
abrasive cutting wheels are suitable
only for dry cutting or only for wet
cutting. Always use wet cutting with
composite resin abrasive cutting
wheels that are suitable only for wet
cutting
Pulling away
The cut-off machine pulls forward, away
from the user, when the abrasive cutting
wheel touches the object to be cut from
above.
