4.1 Proper use
Cut-off saw
The cut-off saw must only be used outdoors for cutting/cutting to length
suitable materials with the cutting blade approved for the unit.
Non-approved work methods:
The cutting blades of the cut-off saw must not be used as a grinding
tool (removing material with the side surface of the cutting blade). This
may cause the cutting blade to break! It is prohibited to attach saw
blades, knives or brushes to the cut-off saw.
Non-approved operators:
Persons unfamiliar with the operator's manual, children, juveniles as
well as persons under the influence of alcohol, drugs or medication
must not attempt to operate the unit.
4.2 General notes
4.2.1 To ensure safe handling, the operating person must read the op-
erator's manual (even if that person is experienced in using a cut-
off saw), to become familiar with the cut-off saw. Operators can en-
danger themselves and others if they are unaware or insufficiently in-
formed about how to properly use the unit.
4.2.2 Only lend the cut-off saw to experienced users. Give the operator's
manual to the user along with the tool.
4.2.3 First time users should receive instruction from a skilled technician re-
garding the characteristics of engine-driven cutting.
4.2.4 Children and juveniles under the age of 18 must not attempt to operate
the cut-off saw. Juveniles who are at least 16 years old are excepted
from this rule if they are working under the supervision of qualified per-
sonnel for educational purposes.
4.2.5 Working with the cut-off saw requires special precautions.
4.2.6 Work only if you are in good physical condition. Fatigue can lead to
carelessness. Take special precautions, particularly as you finish your
work. Carry out all work calmly and circumspectly. The operator is re-
sponsible for others in the area.
