Line cutting
Tilting or twisting in the cutting line will reduce cutting efficiency and damage the
disc.
kickback
Kickback can occur when the cutting disc contacts an object or when
the cut material closes and the disc is caught in the cut. Contact in
the upper portion can cause a quick, reverse reaction that redirects
the disc up and back toward the operator. If the cutter disc is caught,
it can be quickly pushed back towards the operator. Any of these
reactions can cause you to lose control of the cutter, possibly
resulting in serious injury.
Don't rely solely on the safety devices that come with your cutter. As
the user of the cutter, you must take several precautions to protect
yourself from accidents or injuries during use.
Reactive force
A reactive force is always present when cutting. The force pulls
the machine in the opposite direction to the direction of rotation
of the disc. Most of the time this force is insignificant. If the
blade is caught or jammed, the reactive force will be strong
and you may not be able to control the cutter.
Recoil zone
Never use the kickback area of the disc for cutting. Contact in
the kickback area can cause a quick, reverse reaction that
redirects the disc up and back toward the operator.
If the kickback area is used for cutting, the reactive force
causes the disc to climb into the cut. Do not use the recoil
zone. Use the lower dial of the disc to avoid kickback.
Avoiding recoil
The workpiece must always be supported so that the cut remains open. When the cut opens, there is no
recoil. If the cut closes and catches the disc, there is always a risk of kickback.
