k) Position the cord clear of the spinning

accessory. If you lose control, the cord may be

cut or snagged and your hand or arm may be

pulled into the spinning accessory.

l) Never lay the power tool down until the

accessory has come to a complete stop.

The spinning accessory may grab the surface

and pull the power tool out of your control.

m) Do not run the power tool while carrying

it at your side. Accidental contact with the

spinning accessory could snag your clothing,

pulling the accessory into your body.

n) Regularly clean the power tool’s air vents.

The motor’s fan will draw the dust inside

the housing and excessive accumulation of

powdered metal may cause electrical hazards.

o) Do not operate the power tool near

flammable materials. Sparks could ignite

these materials.

p) Do not use accessories that require liquid

coolants. Using water or other liquid coolants

may result in electrocution or shock.

FURTHER SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

FOR ALL OPERATIONS

Causes and Operator Prevention

of Kickback

Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched or

snagged rotating wheel, backing pad, brush or any

other accessory. Pinching or snagging causes rapid

stalling of the rotating accessory which in turn causes

the uncontrolled power tool to be forced in the

direction opposite of the accessory’s rotation at the

point of the binding.

For example, if an abrasive wheel is snagged or

pinched by the workpiece, the edge of the wheel

that is entering into the pinch point can dig into the

surface of the material causing the wheel to climb

out or kick out. The wheel may either jump toward or

away from the operator, depending on direction of the

wheel’s movement at the point of pinching. Abrasive

wheels may also break under these conditions.

Kickback is the result of power tool misuse and/or

incorrect operating procedures or conditions and can

be avoided by taking proper precautions as given

below:

a) 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 reaction or kickback forces, if proper

precautions are taken.

running faster than their rated speed can break

and fly apart.

e) The outside diameter and the thickness of

your accessory must be within the capacity

rating of your power tool. Incorrectly sized

accessories cannot be adequately guarded or

controlled.

f) Threaded mounting of accessories must

match the grinder spindle thread. For

accessories mounted by flanges, the

arbour hole of the accessory must fit the

locating diameter of the flange. Accessories

that do not match the mounting hardware of

the power tool will run out of balance, vibrate

excessively and may cause loss of control.

g) Do not use a damaged accessory. Before

each use inspect the accessory such

as abrasive wheel for chips and cracks,

backing pad for cracks, tear or excess

wear, wire brush for loose or cracked

wires. If power tool or accessory is

dropped, inspect for damage or install an

undamaged accessory. After inspecting

and installing an accessory, position

yourself and bystanders away from the

plane of the rotating accessory and run

the power tool at maximum no-load speed

for one minute. Damaged accessories will

normally break apart during this test time.

h) Wear personal protective equipment.

Depending on application, use face

shield, safety goggles or safety glasses.

As appropriate, wear dust mask, hearing

protectors, gloves and workshop apron

capable of stopping small abrasive or

workpiece fragments. The eye protection

must be capable of stopping flying debris

generated by various operations. The dust

mask or respirator must be capable of

filtrating particles generated by your operation.

Prolonged exposure to high intensity noise may

cause hearing loss.

i) Keep bystanders a safe distance away

from work area. Anyone entering the

work area must wear personal protective

equipment. Fragments of workpiece or of a

broken accessory may fly away and cause injury

beyond immediate area of operation.

j) Hold power tool by insulated gripping

surfaces only, when performing an

operation where the cutting accessory

may contact hidden wiring or its own cord.

Cutting accessory contacting a "live" wire may

make exposed metal parts of the power tool

"live" and could give the operator an electrical

shock.
