–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 ro
tating 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 con
trol.
Safety warnings specific for Grinding and
Abrasive Cutting-Off Operations
–Use only wheel types that are recommen
ded 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 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 protec
ted.
–The guard must be securely attached to
the power tool and positioned for maxi
mum safety, so the least amount of wheel
is exposed towards the operator. The
guard helps to protect the operator from
broken wheel fragments, accidental con
tact with wheel and sparks that could ignite
clothing.
–Wheels must be used only for recommen
ded applications. For example: do not
grind with the side of cut-off wheel. Abra
sive 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 se
lected wheel. Proper wheel flanges sup
port the wheel thus reducing the possibility
of wheel breakage. Flanges for cut-off
wheels may be different from grinding
wheel flanges.
–Do not use worn down wheels from larger
power tools. Wheel intended for larger
power tool is not suitable for the higher
speed of a smaller tool and may burst.
Additional safety warnings specific for Abra
sive Cutting-Off Operations
–Do not “jam” the cut-off wheel or apply
excessive pressure. Do not attempt to
make an excessive depth of cut. Over
stressing the wheel increases the loading
and susceptibility to twisting or binding of
the wheel in the cut and the possibility of
kickback or wheel breakage.
–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.
–When wheel is binding or when interrupt
ing a cut for any reason, switch off the
power tool and hold the power tool mo
tionless until the wheel comes to a com
plete stop. Never attempt to remove the
cut-off wheel from the cut while the wheel
is in motion otherwise kickback may oc
cur. Investigate and take corrective action
to eliminate the cause of wheel binding.
–Do not restart the cutting operation in the
workpiece. Let the wheel reach full speed
and carefully re-enter the cut. The wheel
may bind, walk up or kickback if the power
tool is restarted in the workpiece.
–Support panels or any oversized work
piece to minimize the risk of wheel pinch
ing and kickback. Large workpieces tend to
sag under their own weight. Supports must
be placed under the workpiece near the
line of cut and near the edge of the work
piece on both sides of the wheel.
–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.
Safety Warnings Specific for Wire Brushing
Operations
–Be aware that wire bristles are thrown by
the brush even during ordinary operation.
Do not overstress the wires by applying
excessive load to the brush. The wire bris
tles can easily penetrate light clothing
and/or skin.
–If the use of a guard is recommended for
wire brushing, do not allow any interfer
ence of the wire wheel or brush with the
guard. Wire wheel or brush may expand in
diameter due to work load and centrifugal
forces.
