The word kickback is used to describe the sudden reaction 
that causes the power cutter and cutting blade to be thrown 
from an object when the upper quadrant of the blade, known 
as the kickback zone, touches an object.

•

Never start to cut with the upper quadrant of the blade as 
shown in the figure, also known as the kickback zone.

•

Always hold the machine in a firm grip with both hands. 
Hold it so that the thumbs and fingers grip round the 
handles.

•

Keep a good balance and a firm foothold.

•

Always cut at maximum speed.

•

Stand at a comfortable distance from the work piece.

•

Take care when inserting the blade in an existing cut.

•

Never cut above shoulder height.

•

Be alert to movement of the work piece or anything else 
that can occur, which could cause the cut to close and 
pinch the blade.

Pull in occurs when the disc’s lower section suddenly stops or 
when the cut closes. (To avoid, see the heading ”Basic rules” 
and ”Jamming/rotation”, here below.)

If the cut is pressed together this can lead to jamming. The 
machine can be pulled down suddenly with a very powerful 
jerk.

Support the work piece in such a way that the cut remains 
open during the cutting operation and when the cut is 
finished.

Cutting blades are available in two basic designs; abrasive 
discs and diamond blades.

Always remove the cutting blade when the machine is 
transported.

Make sure that the right bushing is used for the cutting blade 
to be fitted on the machine. See the instructions under the 
heading Assembling the cutting blade.

High-quality blades are often most economical. Lower quality 
blades often have inferior cutting capacity and a shorter 
service life, which results in a higher cost in relation to the 
quantity of material that is cut.

After using an abrasive disc with water cooling, run the disc 
dry for about half a minute. If an abrasive disc is stored in 
humid conditions, this can cause imbalance and result in 
injury.
