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 testtime.

Wear personal protective equipment. Depending on appli-

cation, use face shield, safety goggles or safety glasses.

Where 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 opera-

tion. Prolonged exposure to high intensity noise may

cause hearing loss.

Keep bystanders a safe distance away from work area.

Anyone entering the work area must wear personal pro-

tective equipment. Fragments of workpiece or of a bro-

ken accessory may fly away and cause injury beyond

immediate area of operation.

Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces only,

when performing an operation where the cutting acces-

sory 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 electric shock.

Position the cord clear of the spinning accessory. If you

lose control of the power tool, the cord may be cut or

snagged and your hand or arm may be pulled into the

spinning accessory.

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.

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.

Regularly clean the power tool’s air vents. The motor’s fan

will draw the dust inside the housing and excessive accumu-

lation of powdered metal may cause electrical hazards.

Do not operate the power tool near flammable materials.

Sparks could ignite these materials.

Do not use accessories that require liquid coolants. Using

water or other liquid coolants may result in electrocution

or shock.

Kickback and related warnings

Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched or snagged

rotating wheel, backing pad, brush or any other acces-

sory. 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 mate-

rial 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 incor-

rect operating procedures or conditions and can be

avoided by taking proper precautions as given below.

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 reactions or kickback

forces, if proper precautions are taken.

Never place your hand near the rotating accessory.

Accessory may kickback over your hand.

Do not position your body in the area where power tool

will move if kickback occurs. Kickback will propel the

tool in direction opposite to the wheel’s movement at

the point of snagging.

Use special care when working corners, sharp edges, etc.

Avoid bouncing and snagging the accessory. Corners,

sharp edges or bouncing have a tendency to snag the

rotating accessory and cause loss of control or kickback.

Do not attach a saw chain woodcarving blade or toothed

saw blade. Such blades create frequent kickback and loss

of control over the power tool.

Safety warnings specific for grinding and abrasive

cutting-off operations

Use only wheel types that are recommended for your

power tool and the specific guard designed for the

selected wheel. Wheels for which the power tool was

not designed cannot be adequately guarded and are

unsafe.

The grinding surface of the centre depressed wheels

must be mounted below the plane of the guard lip. An

improperly mounted wheel that projects through the

plane of the guard lip cannot be adequately protected.

The guard must be securely attached to the power tool

and positioned for maximum safety, so the least amount

of wheel is exposed towards the operator. The guard

helps to protect operator from broken wheel fragments,

accidental contact with wheel and sparks that could ignite

clothing.

Wheels must be used only for recommended applications.

For example: do not grind with the side of the cut-off

wheel. Abrasive cut-off wheels are intended for periph-

eral grinding; side forces applied to these wheels may

cause them to shatter.

Always use undamaged wheel flanges that are of correct

size and shape for your selected wheel. Proper wheel

flanges support the wheel thus reducing the possibility of

wheel breakage. Flanges for cut-off wheels may be differ-

ent from grinding wheel flanges.

Do not use worn down wheels from larger power tools.

Wheels intended for larger power tools are not suitable

for the higher speed of a smaller tool and may burst.

Additional safety warnings specific for abrasive

cutting off operations

Do not “jam” the cut-off wheel or apply excessive pres-

sure. Do not attempt to make an excessive depth of cut.

Overstressing the wheel increases the loading and sus-

ceptibility to twisting or binding of the wheel in the cut

and the possibility of kickback or wheel breakage.
