English Short names D-B10 The short name on a diamond cutting wheel is a combination of letters and numerals with up to four digits: - The letters indicate the authorized use for the diamond cutting wheel. - The numerals indicate the performance class of the STIHL diamond cutting wheel. Letter Authorized use D-A Asphalt D-B Concrete BA Concrete, Asphalt SB* Rock, Concrete D-G Ductile iron (*) also can be used for structural steel up to 10 mm thick and ductile iron - not suitable for continuous cutting of such materials Radial and axial run-out A correctly mounted spindle bearing on the cut-off machine is essential for normal service life and efficient operation of the abrasive cutting wheel. 28 0000-GXX-1235-A0 Using an abrasive cutting wheel on a cut-off machine with an improper, worn or damaged spindle bearing can lead to axial and radial run-out. Excessive radial run-out (A) overloads individual diamond segments and causes them to overheat. This can lead to stress cracking in the wheel core or to softening of individual segments. The result can be broken segments that increase the risk of personal injury. Axial run-out or spindle wobble (B) also results in higher thermal stresses and wider cuts. Undercut Undercutting is a wearing away of the steel core of the wheel at or just below the diamond segments. When cutting road surfaces, do not cut through into the more abrasive ballast (gravel, crushed rock) below the paved surface, as indicated by a light colored dust. Doing so can cause undercutting. If undercutting can be detected upon visual inspection, replace the wheel. WARNING Undercutting can result in wheel breakage and/or thrown segments, which can lead to severe personal injury or death to the operator or bystanders. Immediately replace a diamond cutting wheel if undercutting is visible. Built-up edges, dressing Built-up edges are identified by a pale grey deposit on the top of the diamond segments that clogs and blunts the segments. Built-up edges can form: - when cutting extremely hard material, such as granite, - as a result of incorrect handling, such as applying excessive feed force. Built-up edges increase vibration, reduce cutting performance and cause sparking. Diamond cutting wheels must be "dressed" at the first sign of built-up edges.
