Kickback and lock-in
When working with the Power Cutter there is a danger of kickback and lock-in. -
Kickback occurs when the top of the cutting disc is used for cutting (15). -
This causes the Power Cutter to be thrown back toward the user with great force -
and out of control. Risk of injury!
To prevent kickback, observe the following:
Never cut with the section of the cutting disc shown in gure 15. -
Be especially careful when reinserting the disc into cuts that have already
been started!
Lock-in occurs when the cut narrows (crack, or workpiece under stress). -
This causes the Power Cutter to suddenly jump forward, out of control and with -
great force. Risk of injury!
To prevent lock-in, observe the following:
When reinserting the disc into previous cuts, have the Power Cutter running at -
top speed. Always cut at top speed.
Always support the workpiece so that the cut is under tension (16), so that the -
cut does not press together and jam the cutting disc as it proceeds through the
material.
When starting a cut, apply the disc to the workpiece with care. -
Do not just shove it into the material.
Never cut more than one piece at a time! When cutting, make sure that no other -
workpiece comes into contact.
Working behavior / Method of working
Before starting work, check the work area for any hazards (electrical wires, -
inammable substances). Clearly mark the work area (for example with warning
signs or by cordoning off the area).
When working with the Power Cutter hold it rmly by the front and rear handles. -
Never leave the Power Cutter unattended!
Whenever possible run the Power Cutter at the rated arbour speed (see -
“Technical data”).
Only use the Power Cutter during good light and visibility periods. -
Be aware of slippery or wet areas, and of ice and snow (risk of slipping).
Never work on unstable surfaces. Make sure that there are no obstacles in the -
working area, risk of stumbling. Always ensure that you have a safe footing.
Never cut above your shoulder height (17). -
Never stand on a ladder to cut (17). -
Never use the Power Cutter while standing on scaffolding. -
Do not lean over too far when working. When putting down and picking up the -
Power Cutter, do not bend over from the waist, but instead bend in the knees.
Save your back!
Guide the Power Cutter in such a way that no part of your body is within the -
extended swing range of the disc (18).
Use cutting discs only for the materials for which they are designed! -
Do not use the Power Cutter to lift up and shovel away pieces of material and -
other objects.
Important! Before cutting, remove all foreign objects, such as rocks, gravel, nails
etc. from the cutting area. Otherwise, such objects can be ung away by the disc
with great speed. Injury hazard!
When cutting workpieces down to length use a rm support. If necessary, secure -
the workpiece from slipping, but do not steady it with your foot or allow another
person to hold it.
When cutting round items, always secure them against rotation. -
When guiding the Power Cutter by hand, use the side mounting position of the -
cutter attachment only when actually necessary.
Otherwise, always use the central position. This gives the unit a better balance,
for reduced operator fatigue.
