i ) Support panels or any oversized workpiece to
minimize the risk of wheel pinching and kickback.
Large workpieces tend to sag under their own weight.
Supports must be placed under the workpiece near the line
of cut and near the edge of the workpiece on both sides
of the wheel.
j ) Use extra caution when making a "pocket cut" into
existing walls or other blind areas. The protruding
wheel may cut gas or water pipes, electrical wiring or
objects that can cause kickback.
Additional Safety Warnings for Abrasive
Cutting‑Off Operations:
a ) This power tool is intended to function as a cut‑off
tool. Read all safety warnings, instructions,
illustrations and specifications provided with this
power tool. Failure to follow all instructions listed below
may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
b ) Operations such as grinding, sanding, wire brushing,
or polishing are not recommended to be performed
with this power tool. Operations for which the power
tool was not designed may create a hazard and cause
personal injury. Do not surface grind with side of wheel.
c ) Do not use accessories which are not specifically
designed and recommended by the tool
manufacturer. Just because the accessory can
be attached to your power tool, it does not assure
safe operation.
d ) The outside diameter and the thickness of your
accessory must be within the capacity rating of
your power tool. Incorrectly sized accessories cannot be
adequately guarded or controlled.
e ) The arbour size of wheels, flanges, backing pads or
any other accessory must properly fit the spindle of
the power tool. Accessories with arbour holes that do
not match the mounting hardware of the power tool will
run out of balance, vibrate excessively and may cause loss
of control.
f ) When using segmented diamond wheels, use only
diamond wheels with a peripheral gap not greater
than 10 mm and negative rake angle.
g ) Set the depth of cut for no more than necessary. The
less wheel exposed, the less chance of binding and
kickback. Before cutting, be sure adjust shoe assembly
is tight.
h ) Do not force the tool. Forcing a cut off tool reduces
control and cutting efficiency.
i ) If guard is not tight in position, do not use.
j ) Do not use toothed blades.
k ) Do not use this tool as a table saw.
l ) Firmly secure the workpiece.
m ) Wear protective clothing and wash exposed areas
with soap and water. Allowing dust to get into
your mouth, eyes, or lay on the skin may promote
absorption of harmful chemicals. Direct particles away
from face and body.
n ) Use the appropriate dust extractor vacuum to
remove the vast majority of static and airborne
dust. Failure to remove static and airborne dust could
contaminate the working environment or pose an
increased health risk to the operator and those in
close proximity.
o ) Use clamps or other practical ways to secure and
support the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding
the work by hand or against your body is unstable and
may lead to loss of control and injury.
p ) Air vents often cover moving parts and should be
avoided. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught
in moving parts.
CAUTION: When not in use, place tool on its side on
a stable surface where it will not cause a tripping or
falling hazard. Some tools with large battery packs will
stand upright on the battery pack but may be easily
knocked over.
Residual Risks
In spite of the application of the relevant safety regulations
and the implementation of safety devices, certain residual risks
cannot be avoided. These are:
•
Impairment of hearing.
•
Risk of personal injury due to flying particles.
•
Risk of burns due to accessories becoming hot
during operation.
•
Risk of personal injury due to prolonged use.
