Information
s) Secure the workpiece. A workpiece
supported by pipe holders is held more
secure than by hand.
t) Always wait until the machine has come
to a complete stop before placing it down.
The tool insert can jam and lead to loss of
control over the power tool.
u) Never use the machine with a damaged
cable. Do not touch the damaged cable
and pull the mains plug when the cable is
damaged while working. Damaged cables
increase the risk of an electric shock.
Additional specifi c safety rules
The pipe saw must never be used in the
following cases, if:
• There is water or another liquid, explosive
gases or poisonous chemicals inside the pipe
to be cut.
• The power switch is faulty.
• The power cable is faulty,
• The blade is bent.
• The blade is blunt or in poor condition.
• The plastic components are cracked or have
parts missing.

around the pipe or if it is warped.
• The blade guard cover or moving blade
guard has been damaged or removed from
the machine.
• The locking mechanisms do not work
properly (UNLOCK-button).
• The pipe saw has become wet.
When using the pipe saw, the following
factors must always be taken into
consideration:
• Support tubes to minimise the risk of blade
pinching.
• Ensure that the pipe to be cut is empty.
• Ensure that the blade is correctly installed.
• Ensure that the diameter and thickness of the
blade are suitable for the pipe saw and that
the blade is suitable for the rpm-range of the
machine.
• Never use sideways force to stop the blade,
always allow the blade to stop freely.
• Check the attachments of the blade guards.
• Never use excessive force when using the
pipe saw.
• Never use the pipe saw to lift the pipe while it
is still attached to the pipe.
• Avoid overloading the electric motor.
• Always follow the safety and operating
instructions and current regulations.
