Shaping pipe
N Mark a cutting line
N Grind a guide groove along the 
marked cutting line – do this by 
starting at the apex and cut outward 
on both sides
N Cut into pipes, round bodies, etc. in 
the area at the ends of the cutting 
line, so that the material does not 
break away
N Make cuts deeper with even back 
and forth motions – start at the apex 
and cut outwards on both sides – 
feed with full cutting depth along the 
guide groove – for small corrections 
of direction, do not tilt the cutting 
wheel, but always position it anew 
instead – if necessary, leave small 
ridges that hold the part that is to be 
separated in position. Break these 
ridges later
Cutting wheels are exposed to 
extremely high loads especially during 
freehand cutting.
The cutting wheels, which have been 
developed by STIHL in cooperation with 
renowned manufacturers of abrasive 
wheels, are of high quality and tailored 
precisely to the respective intended use 
as well as the engine performance of the 
cut-off machine.
They are of consistently outstanding 
quality.
Transport and storage
– Do not expose cutting wheels to 
direct sunshine or other thermal 
stresses during transport and 
storage
– Avoid jolting and impacts
– Stack cutting wheels flat on a level 
surface in the original packaging in 
a dry place where the temperature 
is as constant as possible
– Do not store cutting wheels in the 
vicinity of aggressive fluids
– Store cutting wheels in a frost-free 
place
Manual cutting along this line 
requires particular caution and 
precision.
