7. Begin cutting and continue at full
throttle.
8. Do not overreach.
9. Use your cut-off machine for cutting
only. It is not designed for prying or
shoveling away any objects.
10. Be especially alert for reactive
forces when cutting with the front of
the wheel.
11. Be alert to shifting of the work piece
or anything that could cause the cut
to close and pinch the wheel.
12. Release the pressure on the cut-off
machine as you reach the end of the
cut. Too much pressure may cause
the operator to lose control of the
cut-off machine when the abrasive
wheel completes the cut. The
abrasive wheel may contact the
operator or strike some foreign
object and shatter.
13. Use extreme caution when
reentering a cut and do not turn the
wheel at an angle or push the wheel
into the cut as this may result in a
pinching of the wheel.
Maintenance, Repair and Storing
of the Cut-Off Machine
Maintenance, replacement, or repair
of the emission control devices and
systems may be performed by any
nonroad engine repair establishment
or individual. However if you claim
warranty for a component which has
not been serviced or maintained
properly or if nonapproved
replacement parts were used, STIHL
may deny warranty.
Never operate a cut-off machine that is
damaged, improperly adjusted or not
completely or securely assembled.
Follow the maintenance and repair
instructions in the appropriate section of
your owner's manual.
! Warning!
Use only STIHL replacement parts for
maintenance and repair. Use of parts
manufactured by others may cause
serious or fatal injury.
!Warning!
Always stop the engine and make sure
that the wheel is stopped before doing
any maintenance or repair work or
cleaning the cut-off machine. Do not
attempt any maintenance or repair work
not described in your owner's manual.
Have such work performed at your
STIHL service shop only.
Clean grinding dust after finishing work.
Empty the fuel tank before storing for
longer than a few days.
Store fuel only in correctly labeled and
approved containers. Avoid direct skin
contact and do not inhale the gas
vapors.
Keep the handles dry, clean and free of
oil and fuel.
Tighten all nuts, bolts and screws except
the carburetor adjustment screws after
each use.
!Warning!
Never test the ignition system with
ignition wire terminal removed from
spark plug or with unseated spark plug,
since uncontained sparking may cause
a fire.
!Warning!
To reduce the risk of fire and burn injury,
use only spark plugs authorized by
STIHL. Always press spark plug boot
snugly onto spark plug terminal of the
proper size. (Note: If terminal has
detachable SAE adapter nut, it must be
attached.) A loose connection between
spark plug terminal and ignition wire
connector in the boot may create arcing
that could ignite combustible fumes and
cause a fire. Keep spark plug clean, and
make sure ignition lead is in good
condition.
