2 Safety
2.1 Safety instructions
The safety instructions in the section below contain all general safety instructions for
power tools that the applicable standards require to be stated in the operating instructions.
Consequently, some of the instructions might not be relevant for this tool.
2.1.1 Proper arrangement of the workplace
▶ Approval must be obtained from the site engineer or site management before beginning
drilling and sawing work. Drilling and sawing work on buildings and other structures
may influence the statics of the structure, especially when steel reinforcing bars and
load-bearing components are cut through.
▶ Ensure that good lighting is in use.
▶ Ensure that the workplace is well ventilated. Exposure to dust at a poorly ventilated
workplace may result in damage to the health.
▶ Keep the workplace tidy. Objects which could cause injury should be removed from
the working area. Untidiness at the workplace can lead to accidents.
▶ In order to avoid injuries and to prevent the diamond wire becoming trapped and
stuck, steel wedges and/or supports must be used to prevent uncontrolled movement
of objects that are being cut free.
▶ Ensure that adequately-sized supports are correctly installed so that the remaining
structure maintains its stability after completion of the cutting work and removal of the
part cut away.
▶ Never loiter in areas where loads are suspended by crane or lifting equipment.
▶ The area of the cut or the opening created by the cutting process must be safely and
visibly cordoned off in order to avoid the risk of persons falling.
