performed. Use of the power tool for operations different from those intended could
result in a hazardous situation.
h) Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean and free from oil and grease.
Slippery handles and grasping surfaces do not allow for safe handling and control
of the tool in unexpected situations.
Service

replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
Usage

30cm in length. Exceeding designated material specifications greatly increases
this risk and damages the tool. Do not attempt to cut rebars. Harder, thicker or
thinner than those specified.
Use eye protection
Wear safety goggles , safety glassed with side shields or a face shield when using
cutter.
Provide safety barriers
Erect safety screens to protect co-workers from possible flying ends. Place safety
screen under the rebar when working in high places.
Exercise proper control
Hold cutter firmly and maintain proper footing and balance. Do not over-reach
when working in high place , secure cutter to scaffolding with a safety rope. Check
that power cord is not fouled and keep cord away from sharp edges and heat.
Check that all adjusting wrenches have been removed before using cutter.
