MAKITA offers the right accessories for all wet cutting applications (see also "SPECIAL ACCESSORIES"). Remove foreign objects such as sand, stones and nails found within the working area. Caution: Watch out for electric wires and cables! The rapid rotation of the cutting disc at the point of contact throws fragments out of the cut groove at high speed. For your safety, swing the protection hood down as far as possible (), so that material fragments are thrown forward, away from the operator. Mark the cut, and then make a groove about 5 mm (just under /5") along the entire length of the planned cut. This groove will then guide the Power Cut accurately guring the actual cutoff. - For long, straight cuts we recommend using a trolley (4, see also "SPECIAL ACCESSORIES"). This makes it much easier to guide the unit straight. Perform the cut with a steady back-and-forth motion. When cutting slabs to size, you need not cut through the entire material thickness (creating unnecessary dust). Instead, simply make a shallow groove, and then knock off the excess material cleanly on a flat surface (25). NOTE: CAREFUL! Transport and storage - When cutting into lengths, cutting through material, making cutouts, etc. , always make sure to plan the direction and sequence of cuts in such a way that the disc does not get jammed by the cut-off piece, and that no persons can be injured by falling pieces. Always turn off the Power Cut when transporting it or moving it from place to place on a site (6). Carry the unit only by the tubular (middle) handle with the cutting disc pointing behind you (6). Avoid touching the exhaust muffler (burn hazard!) When moving the Power Cut over longer distances, use a wheelbarrow or wagon. Never carry or move the unit with the engine on or the disc moving! 4 - When transporting the Power Cut in a vehicle, make sure it is securely positioned in such a way that no fuel can leak out. Always remove the cutting disc before transporting the unit in a vehicle. Before transporting in a vehicle, allow the Power Cut to cool off completely. Note: Mufflers with catalytic converters take longer to cool off!The Power Cut should be stored safely in a dry place. Always dismount the cutting disc before storage. Before long-term storage and before shipping the Power Cut, follow the instructions in the chapter on "Periodic care and maintenance". ALWAYS empty the fuel tank and run the carburetor dry.
