Safety Instructions

During the design and production of Husqvarna products,
great importance is placed on safety, as well as
effectiveness and ease of use. To ensure that the
machine remains safe you must pay attention to the
following points:
• Note that under no circumstances may the machine be
started without following the safety instructions. Should
the user fail to comply with these, Husqvarna Con-
struction Products Sweden AB or its representatives
are free from all liability both directly and indirectly.
Read through these operating instructions and make
sure that you understand the contents before starting
to use the machine. Should you, after reading these
safety instructions, still feel uncertain about the safety
risks involved you must not use the machine
Please contact your dealer for more information.
• Check that all couplings, connections and the blade
guard are in full working order.
• Make sure that all hoses and electrical cables are
connected to the machine correctly before you start the
machine.
• The safety distance is 4 metres in front of and to the
side of the saw.
• Make sure that there are no persons or animals in the
working area.
• Check that the blade guard and blade flange guard are
fitted correctly.
• Always saw in a manner that permits easy access to
the emergency stop.
• Never leave the machine unsupervised with the engine
running.
• Clearly mark out all cuts to be made on the floor before
you start sawing, plan these so they can be carried out
without danger to persons or the machine.
• Check with the construction drawings whether there
are electrical cables, water mains, gas pipes or
drainage pipes within the working area.
• Check that electrical cables within the working area are
not live.
• Observe care when lifting. You are handling heavy
parts, which implies the risk of crush injuries or other
injuries.
• Personal protective equipment according to the
Operator's Manual must always be used and you
should use protective clothing too. Never wear loose
fitting clothes that can catch in moving parts.

• People that need to be in close proximity of the
machine must wear hearing protection.
• The machine must not be turned, swung or moved
laterally with the blade rotating.
• Only use blades recommended by the manufacturer.
• Never saw without a blade guard.
• Never saw without coolant. A poorly cooled blade can
cause segments to come loose from the blade. The
water coolant also binds concrete dust.
• Never use a damaged or worn blade.
• Do not use the machine if it is not working properly.
• Regulations for the prevention of accidents, and other
general safety and occupational health regulations,
must always be followed.
• Store the machine in a locked space away from
children and adults untrained in use of the machine.
• Firmly secure or anchor concrete blocks that have
been cut loose. The heavy weight of cut material can
cause extensive damage if it is not moved under
controlled conditions.
• Make sure that there is always another person close at
hand when you use the machines, so that you can call
for help if an accident should occur.
WARNING!
Always use approved protective clothing
and approved protective equipment when
using the machine. Protective clothing and
protective equipment cannot eliminate
accident risks, but by using the right
clothes and equipment you can reduce the
seriousness if an accident should occur.
Ask your dealer about approved and
recommended protective clothing and
protective equipment.
