► Do not position your body in the area where the
power tool will move if kickback occurs.
Kickback will propel the tool in the direction
opposite to the wheel's movement at the point of
snagging.
► Use special care when working corners,sharp
edges, etc. Avoid bouncing and snagging the
accessory.
Corners, sharp edges or bouncing have a tendency
to snag the rotating accessory and cause loss of
control or kickback.
► Do not attach a saw chain, wood carving blade
or toothed saw blade.
Such blades create frequent kickback and loss of
control over the power tool.
► Do not "jam" the cut-off wheel or apply
excessive pressure. Do not attempt to make
an excessive depth of cut.
Over-stressing the wheel increases the loading and
susceptibility to twisting or binding of the wheel in
the cut and the possibility of kickback or wheel
breakage.
► When wheel is binding or when interrupting a
cut for any reason, switch off the power tool and
hold the power tool motionless until the wheel
comes to a complete stop. Never attempt to
remove the cut-off wheel from the cut while the
wheel is in motion, otherwise kickback may
occur.
Investigate and take corrective action to eliminate
the cause of wheel binding.
► Do not restart the cutting operation in the work
piece. Let the wheel reach full speed and care
fully re-enter the cut.
The wheel may bind, walk up or kickback if the
power tool is restarted in the workpiece.
► 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.

► 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.
3 Additional safety warnings
Wear safety goggles.
► Use suitable detectors to determine if utility
lines are hidden in the work area or call the
local utility company for assistance.
Contact with electric lines can lead to fire and
electric shock. Damaging a gas line can lead to
explosion. Penetrating a water line causes property
damage or may cause an electric shock.
► When working screed, use dust extraction. The
vacuum cleaner must be approved for the
extraction of stone dust.
Using this equipment reduces dust-related hazards.
► When working with the machine, always hold it
firmly with both hands and provide for a secure
stance. The power tool is guided more securely
with both hands.
► Secure the workpiece.
A workpiece clamped with clamping devices or
in a vice is held more secure than by hand.
► 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.
