Additional safety warnings
1. Watch out for flying sparks when operating. They
can cause injury or ignite combustible materials.
2. Secure work. Use clamps or a vise to hold
work when practical. It's safer than using your
hand and it frees both hands to operate tool.
3. Secure the cut-off wheel carefully.
4. Be careful not to damage the spindle, flanges
(especially the installing surface) or bolt, or
the cut-off wheel itself might break.
5. Keep guards in place and in working order.
6. Hold the handle firmly.
7. Keep hands away from rotating parts.
8. Make sure the cut-off wheel is not contacting
the work-piece before the switch is turned on.
Before each use, watch for flutter or excessive
9.
vibration that might be caused by poor instal-
lation or a poorly balanced wheel.
10. Remove material or debris from the area that
might be ignited by sparks. Be sure that others
are not in the path of the sparks. Keep a proper,
charged fire extinguisher closely available.
If the cut-off wheel stops during the opera-
11.
tion, makes an odd noise or begins to vibrate,
switch off the tool immediately.
12. Always switch off and wait for the cut-off wheel
to come to a complete stop before removing,
securing workpiece, working vise, changing
work position, angle or the cut-off wheel itself.
13. Do not touch the workpiece immediately after
operation; it is extremely hot and could burn
your skin.
14. Store wheels in a dry location only.

Tips for maintaining maximum
battery life
1. Charge the battery cartridge before completely dis-
charged. Always stop tool operation and charge the
battery cartridge when you notice less tool power.
2. Never recharge a fully charged battery cartridge.
Overcharging shortens the battery service life.
3. Charge the battery cartridge with room tempera-
ture at 10 °C - 40 °C (50 °F - 104 °F). Let a hot
battery cartridge cool down before charging it.
4. Charge the battery cartridge if you do not use
it for a long period (more than six months).
