Maintenance / Cleaning; Overload Protection; Safety Clutch; Accessories - Metabo MFE 40 Instructions D'utilisation Originales

Once the groove is complete, switch off the
tool and hold it steady until the diamond cut-off
wheel comes to a stop. Never attempt to remove
the cutting disc from the cut while the wheel is
in motion otherwise kickback may occur.
Remove the machine from the cut. Put the machine
down on its side.
You can remove the remaining strip between the
two chases with the chase extraction chisel
provided.
Grooves of greater depth cannot be cut into
hard material (e.g. cement) in one movement.
8. Maintenance, Cleaning
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.
It is possible that particles deposit inside the power
tool during operation. This impairs the cooling of the
power tool.
The power tool should be cleaned regularly, often
and thoroughly through all front and rear air vents
using a vacuum cleaner. Prior to this operation,
separate the power tool from the power source and
wear protective goggles and a dust mask.

9. Overload protection

9.1

Safety clutch

There is an automatic safety coupling built-in to the
gears of the wall chaser. This protects the operator
from the high torque that may, for example, occur if
the diamond cut-off wheel is canted during work.
The safety coupling protects and at the same time
takes the strain off the motor and the gears of the
machine. When the safety coupling engages,
immediately switch the motor off (do not allow the
coupling to drag!),

Load of the machine is too high! Reduce the
