For your own protection and for the protection of your electrical tool, pay attention to all parts of the text that are marked with this symbol! WARNING – Reading the operating instruc- tions will reduce the risk of injury. Pass on your electrical tool only together with these documents. General Power Tool Safety Warnings WARNING – Read all safety warnings and instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury. Save all warnings and instructions for future reference! The term "power tool" in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.

2.1 Work area safety

a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents. b) Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes. c) Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.

2.2 Electrical safety

a) Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock. b) Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded. c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock. d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock. e) When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock. f) If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.

a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury. b) Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries. c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before connecting to power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or energising power tools that have the switch on invites accidents. d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury. e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations. f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts. g) If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.

1. Specified Conditions of Use

2.4 Power tool use and care

a) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed. b) Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired. c) Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery pack from the power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally. d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users. e) Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the power tool's operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools. f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control. g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in accordance with these instructions, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.

a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.

3.1 Cut-off machine safety warnings

a) The guard provided with the tool must be securely attached to the power tool and positioned for maximum safety, so the least amount of wheel is exposed towards the operator. Position yourself and bystanders away from the plane of the rotating wheel. The guard helps to protect operator from broken wheel fragments and accidental contact with wheel. b) Use only diamond cut-off wheels for your power tool. Just because an accessory can be attached to your power tool, it does not assure safe operation. c) The rated speed of the accessory must be at least equal to the maximum speed marked on the power tool. Accessories running faster than their rated speed can break and fly apart. d) Wheels must be used only for recommended applications. For example: do not grind with the side of cut-off wheel. Abrasive cut-off wheels are intended for peripheral grinding, side forces applied to these wheels may cause them to shatter. e) Always use undamaged wheel flanges that are of correct diameter for your selected wheel. Proper wheel flanges support the wheel thus reducing the possibility of wheel breakage. f) The outside diameter and the thickness of your accessory must be within the capacity rating of your power tool. Incorrectly sized accessories cannot be adequately guarded or controlled. g) The arbour size of wheels and flanges must properly fit the spindle of the power tool. Wheels and flanges with arbour holes that do not match the mounting hardware of the power tool will run out of balance, vibrate excessively and may cause loss of control. h) Do not use damaged wheels. Before each use, inspect the wheels for chips and cracks. If power tool or wheel is dropped, inspect for damage or install an undamaged wheel. After inspecting and installing the wheel, position yourself and bystanders away from the plane of the rotating wheel and run the power tool at maximum no load speed for one minute. Damaged wheels will normally break apart during this test time.

i) Wear personal protective equipment.

Depending on application, use face shield, safety goggles or safety glasses. As appropriate, wear dust mask, hearing protectors, gloves and shop apron capable of stopping small abrasive or workpiece fragments. The eye protection must be capable of stopping flying debris generated by various operations. The dust mask or respirator must be capable of filtrating particles generated by your operation. Prolonged exposure to high intensity noise may cause hearing loss. j) Keep bystanders a safe distance away from work area. Anyone entering the work area must wear personal protective equipment. Fragments of workpiece or of a broken wheel may fly away and cause injury beyond immediate area of operation. k) Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces only, when performing an operation where the cutting accessory may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Cutting accessory contacting a "live" wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool "live" and could give the operator an electric shock. l) Position the cord clear of the spinning accessory. If you lose control, the cord may be cut or snagged and your hand or arm may be pulled into the spinning wheel. m) Never lay the power tool down until the accessory has come to a complete stop. The spinning wheel may grab the surface and pull the power tool out of your control. n) Do not run the power tool while carrying it at your side. Accidental contact with the spinning

accessory could snag your clothing, pulling the accessory into your body. o) Regularly clean the power tool’s air vents. The motor’s fan will draw the dust inside the housing and excessive accumulation of powdered metal may cause electrical hazards. p) Do not operate the power tool near flammable materials. Sparks could ignite these materials. q) Do not use accessories that require liquid coolants. Using water or other liquid coolants may result in electrocution or shock.

3.2 Kickback and related warnings

Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched or snagged rotating wheel. Pinching or snagging causes rapid stalling of the rotating wheel which in turn causes the uncontrolled power tool to be forced in the direction opposite of the wheel’s rotation at the point of the binding. For example, if an abrasive wheel is snagged or pinched by the workpiece, the edge of the wheel that is entering into the pinch point can dig into the surface of the material causing the wheel to climb out or kick out. The wheel may either jump toward or away from the operator, depending on direction of the wheel’s movement at the point of pinching. Abrasive wheels may also break under these conditions. Kickback is the result of power tool misuse and/or incorrect operating procedures or conditions and can be avoided by taking proper precautions as given below. a) Maintain a firm grip on the power tool and position your body and arm to allow you to resist kickback forces. Always use auxiliary handle, if provided, for maximum control over kickback or torque reaction during start-up. The operator can control torque reactions or kickback forces, if proper precautions are taken. b) Never place your hand near the rotating accessory. Accessory may kickback over your hand. c) Do not position your body in line with the rotating wheel. Kickback will propel the tool in direction opposite to the wheel’s movement at the point of snagging. d) Use special care when working corners, sharp edges etc. Avoid bouncing and snagging the accessory. Corners, sharp edges or bouncing have a tendency to snag the rotating accessory and cause loss of control or kickback. e) Do not attach a saw chain, woodcarving blade, segmented diamond wheel with a peripheral gap greater than 10 mm or toothed saw blade. Such blades create frequent kickback and loss of control. f) Do not “jam” the wheel or apply excessive pressure. Do not attempt to make an excessive depth of cut. Overstressing the wheel increases the loading and susceptibility to twisting or binding of the wheel in the cut and the possibility of kickback or wheel breakage. g) When wheel is binding or when interrupting a cut for any reason, switch off the power tool and hold the power tool motionless until the wheel comes to a complete stop. Never attempt to remove the wheel from the cut while the wheel is in motion otherwise kickback may occur. Investigate and take corrective action to eliminate the cause of wheel binding.

Do not restart the cutting operation in the workpiece. Let the wheel reach full speed and carefully re-enter the cut. The wheel may bind, walk up or kickback if the power tool is restarted in the workpiece.

i) Support panels or any oversized workpiece

to minimize the risk of wheel pinching and kickback. Large workpieces tend to sag under their own weight. Supports must be placed under the workpiece near the line of cut and near the edge of the workpiece on both sides of the wheel. j) Use extra caution when making a “pocket cut” into existing walls or other blind areas. The protruding wheel may cut gas or water pipes, electrical wiring or objects that can cause kickback.

3.3 Additional Safety Instructions:

WARNING – Always wear protective goggles. Wear a suitable dust protection mask. Use only diamond cut-off wheels. You must not use several diamond cutting discs. Do not use bonded discs. Wear ear protectors. Use elastic cushioning layers if they have been supplied with the grinding media and if required. Observe the specifications of the accessory manufacturer! Protect the accessories from grease and physical impact. Accessories must be stored and handled with care in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions. The workpiece must lay flat and be secured against slipping, e.g. using clamps. Large workpieces must be sufficiently supported. Damaged, eccentric or vibrating tools must not be used. Ensure that the spot where you wish to work is free of power cables, gas lines or water pipes (e.g. using a metal detector). Avoid damage to gas or water pipes, electrical cables and load-bearing walls (static). Pull the plug out of the socket before making any adjustments, converting or servicing the machine.ENGLISHen

A damaged or cracked additional handle must be replaced. Never operate a machine with a defective additional handle. Prior to each use, check if there are parts missing, worn, broken, torn or damaged. Do not use a defective or incomplete guard. Use only the supplied clamping devices. Additional Warnings: California Prop 65 08_2018 Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities contains chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:

• Lead from lead-based paints,

• Crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, and

• Arsenic and chromium from chemicallytreated lumber. Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.

7.1 Switching on and off

Always guide the machine with both hands. Switch on first, then guide the accessory towards the workpiece. Avoid inadvertent starts: always switch the tool off when the plug is removed from the mains socket or if there has been a power cut. In continuous operation, the machine continues running if it is forced out of your hands. Therefore, always hold the machine with both hands using the handles provided, stand securely and concentrate. Avoid the machine swirling up or taking in dust and chips. After switching off the machine, only place it down when the motor has come to a standstill. See illustration D on page 3. Torque activation: Switching on: Slide the lock (22) in the direction of the arrow and press the trigger switch (23). Switching off: Release the trigger switch (23). Continuous operation (depending on features) Switching on: Slide the lock (22) in the direction of the arrow, press the trigger switch (23) and keep it pressed. The machine is now switched on. Now slide the lock (22) in the direction of the arrow once more to lock the trigger switch (23) (continuous operation). Switching off: Press the trigger switch (23) and release.

machine downwards. The diamond cutting discs plunges into the workpiece.

6. Attaching the Accessory

5. Slowly guide the machine in the direction of the

arrow (7): The diamond cutting disc cuts into the workpiece.

6. Pull/push machine only in direction of the

arrow (7) (work in reverse rotation). Otherwise there is the danger of the machine kicking back from the cut out of control. Guide the machine evenly at a speed suitable for the material being processed. For optimal extraction ensure that the wheels always touch the workpiece. The guide table (10) must glide on the workpiece.

7. Once the cut is complete, switch off the tool and

hold it steady until the diamond cutting disc comes to a stop. Never attempt to remove the cutting disc from the cut while the wheel is in motion otherwise kickback may occur.

8. Put machine aside.

Prior to each use, check if there are parts missing, worn, broken, torn or damaged. Do not use a defective or incomplete guard. Significantly reduced work progress and increased feed force are signs for blunt diamond cut-off wheels. Sharpen blunt diamond cut-off wheels by carrying out short cuts into abrasive materials such as sand-lime brick. Cleaning the motor: It is possible that particles deposit inside the power tool during operation. This impairs the cooling of the power tool. Conductive build-up can impair the protective insulation of the power tool and create an electrical hazard. The power tool should be cleaned regularly, often and thoroughly through all front and rear air vents using a vacuum cleaner or by blowing in dry air. Prior to this operation, separate the power tool from the power source and wear protective glasses and dust mask. Ensure appropriate suction is available when blowing out vents. Button (21) for adjusting the handle: Occasionally blow compressed air through the button (when pressed, in all 3 main handle positions). Prior to this operation, separate the power tool from the power source and wear protective glasses and dust mask.

Switching on the machine reduces the voltage briefly. Unfavourable mains power conditions may have a detrimental effect on other machines. Power impedances less than 0.2 ohm should not cause malfunctions. Use only genuine Metabo accessories. Use only accessories that fulfil the requirements and specifications listed in these operating instructions. The maximum permitted thickness of the diamond cutting disc is 3 mm (1/8"). Do not use any segmented diamond cutting discs with segment slits >10 mm. If using segmented diamond cutting discs, only a negative segment cutting angle is permitted. See www.metabo.com or the catalogue for a complete range of accessories. Repairs to electrical tools must ONLY be carried out by qualified electricians! A defective mains cable must be replaced only with a special, original mains cable from Metabo available from the Metabo service.
