SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Dry cutting with diamond blade
WARNING! Diamond blades get very hot
!when used. A heated blade can be deformed and cause damage to the machine as well as the user.
When dry cutting, lift the blade out from the cut every
Wet cutting with diamond blade (K3000 Wet)
Water cooling, which is used when cutting concrete, cools the blade and increases its service life while also reducing the formation of dust.
WARNING! Diamond blades get very hot
!when used. A heated blade can be deformed and cause damage to the machine as well as the user.
When wet cutting, the blade is continuously cooled to prevent overheating.
Water connection with flow limiter (K3000 Wet)
There is a flow limiter in the water connector that gives a constant flow, irrespective of the water pressure. Le limiteur de débit ne peut être démonté.
General working instructions
WARNING! This section describes basic
!safety directions for using a power cutter. This information is never a substitute for professional skills and experience. If you get into a situation where you feel unsafe, stop and seek expert advice. Contact your dealer, service agent or an experienced power cutter user. Do not attempt any task that you feel unsure of!
Cutting technique
The technique described below is of a general character. Check information for each blade regarding individual cutting characteristics (for example, diamond blades requires less feeding pressure than an abrasive discs).
•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.
•Ensure that the cutting blade is fitted correctly.
•Always hold the machine in a firm grip with both hands. Hold it so that the thumbs and fingers grip round the handles.
•Check that the blade is not in contact with anything when the machine is started
•Start cutting with the machine running at maximum speed.
•Start cutting smoothly, allowing the machine to work without forcing or pressing in the blade. Always cut at maximum speed.
•Move the blade slowly forwards and backwards to achieve a small contact area between the blade and the material to be cut. This reduces the temperature of the blade and ensures effective cutting.
