handle, if provided, for maximum control over
kickback or torque reaction during start-
up. The operator can control torque reactions or
kickback forces, if proper precautions are taken.
b) Never place your hand near the rotating
accessory. Accessory may kickback over your hand.
c) Do not position your body in line with the
rotating wheel. Kickback will propel the tool in
direction opposite to the wheel's movement at the
point of snagging.
d) 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.
e) Do not attach a saw chain, woodcarving
blade, segmented diamond wheel with a
peripheral gap greater than 10 mm or toothed
saw blade. Such blades create frequent kickback
and loss of control.
f) Do not "jam" the wheel or apply excessive
pressure. Do not attempt to make an excessive
depth of cut. Overstressing 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.
g) 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 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.
h) Do not restart the cutting operation in the
workpiece. Let the wheel reach full speed and
carefully re-enter the cut. The wheel may bind,
walk up or kickback if the power tool is restarted in
the workpiece.
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.
(2.8) WARNING: the operation of any power
tool can result in foreign objects being thrown
towards your eyes, which could result in severe eye
damage. Before beginning power tool operation,
always wear safety goggles or safety glasses with
side shield or a full face shield where necessary.

ADDITIONAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING: Always disconnect the Disc Cutter
from the mains supply before changing discs,
servicing, cleaning or adjusting the Disc Cutter.
• Keep your hands away from cutting area and
the cutting disc. Keep your second hand on
the auxiliary handle or motor housing. If both
hands are holding the machine, they cannot
come into contact with the diamond disc.
• Never engage the spindle lock button while
the machine is running. Serious damage could
occur to the machine and potentially a very
hazardous situation arise for the operator.
• Only use diamond discs or other approved
cutting discs as specified by the manufacturer.
Do not operate the cutter while applying water.
The cutting discs are 'dry cut' discs.
• Always check the diamond disc before starting
the machine. If it is cracked, broken or bent,
do not use it. Carefully start the machine and
check for any unusual noises, vibration or other
abnormalities.
• Be careful when cutting metal. Using the
diamond disc to cut metal (reinforcing rods
embedded in concrete) will shorten its service
life and could lead to disc damage.
• Allow the Cutting Disc to reach full speed
before beginning a cut. Start working only
when maximum speed is reached.
• Do not use excessive force. Excessive force
overloads the motor and reduces working
efficiency and service life. Always cut concrete,
tile or stone to a maximum cutting depth of
50mm or less. If the cutting depth is more than
50mm, cut the workpiece 2 or 3 times. If the
workpiece is cut with a cutting depth of more
than 50mm, the service life of the diamond disc
will be re¬duced and the motor may seize.
