OPERATING
Work area safety
• Observe your surroundings to ensure that nothing can
affect your control of the machine.
• Ensure that no one/nothing can come into contact with the
cutting equipment or be hit b
y parts if the blade breaks.
• Do not use the machine in bad weather, such as dense
f
og, heavy rain, strong wind, intense cold, etc. Working in
bad weather is tiring and can lead to dangerous
conditions, e.g. slippery surfaces.
• Never start to work with the power cutter before the
w
orking area is clear and you have a firm foothold. Look
out for any obstacles with unexpected movement. Ensure
when cutting that no material can become loose and fall,
causing operating injury.Take great care when working on
sloping ground.
• Ensure that the working area is sufficiently illuminated to
create a saf
e working environment.
• Make sure that no pipes or electrical cables are routed in
the w
orking area or in the material to be cut.
At a low water pressure, for example when the water tank is
used, the restr
ictor can be dismantled to give the correct
water flow.
Basic working techniques
• This machine is only to be used with Husqvarna´s
specially developed diamond blades intended for Cut-n-
Break. The blades have an integrated belt pulley and are
approved for freehand cutting. The machine shall not be
used with any other type of blade, or for any other type of
cutting.
• Remain at a distance from the blades when the engine is
r
unning.
• Never move the machine when the cutting equipment is
rotating.
• Never use the kickback zone of the blade for cutting. See
instr
uctions under the heading "Kickback".
• Never cut above shoulder height. Never cut from a ladder.
Use a platf
orm or scaffold when working at high altitude.
• Support the work piece in such a way that it is possible to
predict what will happen, and so that the cut remains open
while cutting.
• Always hold the machine in a firm grip with both hands.
Hold it so that the thumbs and fingers g
rip round the
handles.
• Stand at a comfortable distance from the work piece.
• Check that the blades are not in contact with anything
when the machine is star
ted.
• Apply the cutting blade gently with high rotating speed (full
throttle) Maintain full speed until cutting is complete
. Let
the machine work without forcing or pressing the blade.
• Cut in the same direction when cutting into an existing cut.
Mak
e certain that the cut is wide enough and that the
blades are not angled in the cut. This can cause kickback.
• Always cut from top to bottom (A). Remove the cutter and
use a cro
wbar to remove the material that remains
between the cut (B).
• Follow the same saw cut, but further in the work piece (C),
and repeat the w
ork with the crowbar.
!
WARNING! The safety distance for the power
cutter is 15 metres. You are responsible to
ensure that animals and onlookers are not
within the working area. Do not start cutting
until the working area is clear and you are
standing firmly.
!
WARNING! When cutting vertically, always
cut from the top of the cut and down. Never
cut from the bottom of the cut and up. This
can cause a kickback and result in personal
injury.
!
WARNING! Do not pull the power cutter to
one side, this can cause the blades to jam or
break resulting in personal injury.
