Bosch Power Tools 3 609 929 B90 | (12.11.09)

f 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 re-

actions or kickback forces, if proper precau-

tions are taken.

f Never place your hand near the rotating ac-

cessory. Accessory may kickback over your

hand.

f Do not stand in line with the rotating grind-

ing disc. Kickback will propel the power tool

in the direction opposite to the grinding

disc’s movement at the point of snagging.

f Use special care when working corners,

sharp edges, etc. Avoid bouncing and snag-

ging the accessory. Corners, sharp edges or

bouncing have a tendency to snag the rotat-

ing accessory and cause loss of control or

kickback.

f Do not attach a saw chain woodcarving

blade, a segmented diamond cutting disc

blade with segments greater than 10 mm,

or a toothed saw blade. Such application

tools create frequent kickback or loss of con-

trol over the power tool.

Additional safety warnings specific for abra-

sive cutting off operations

f Do not “jam” the cut-off wheel or apply ex-

cessive pressure. Do not attempt to make

an excessive depth of cut. Overstressing the

wheel increases the loading and susceptibili-

ty to twisting or binding of the wheel in the

cut and the possibility of kickback or wheel

breakage.

f Do not position your body in line with and

behind the rotating wheel. When the wheel,

at the point of operation, is moving away

from your body, the possible kickback may

propel the spinning wheel and the power

tool directly at you.

f When wheel is binding or when interrupting

a cut for any reason, switch off the power

tool and hold the power tool motionless un-

til the wheel comes to a complete stop. Nev-

er attempt to remove the cut-off wheel from

the cut while the wheel is in motion other-

wise kickback may occur. Investigate and

take corrective action to eliminate the cause

of wheel binding.

f Do not restart the cutting operation in the

workpiece. Let the wheel reach full speed

and carefully reenter the cut. The wheel may

bind, walk up or kickback if the power tool is

restarted in the workpiece.

f Support panels or any oversized workpiece

to minimize the risk of wheel pinching and

kickback. Large workpieces tend to sag un-

der 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.

f 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.

Additional safety warnings

Wear safety goggles.

f Use suitable detectors to determine if utili-

ty lines are hidden in the work area or call

the local utility company for assistance.

Contact with electric lines can lead to fire

and electric shock. Damaging a gas line can

lead to explosion. Penetrating a water line

causes property damage or may cause an

electric shock.

f When working stone, use dust extraction.

The vacuum cleaner must be approved for

the extraction of stone dust. Using this

equipment reduces dust-related hazards.
