m) 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.

n) 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.

o) 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.

p) Do not operate the power tool near ﬂ ammable

materials.

Sparks could ignite these materials.

q) 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 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 ﬁ rm grip with both hands 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.

b) Never place your hand near the rotating accessory.

Accessory may kickback over your hand.

c) 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.

d) 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.

e) Do not attach a saw chain woodcarving blade,

segmented diamond wheel with a peripheral gap

greater than 10 mm or toothed saw blade.

Such blades create frequent kickback and loss of

control.

SAFETY WARNINGS SPECIFIC FOR

GRINDING AND ABRASIVE CUTTING-

OFF OPERATIONS

a) Use only wheel types that are speciﬁ ed for your

power tool and the speciﬁ c guard designed for the

selected wheel.

Wheels for which the power tool was not designed

cannot be adequately guarded and are unsafe.

b) 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 protected.

c) 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 the operator from broken

wheel fragments, accidental contact with wheel and

sparks that could ignite clothing.

d) Wheels must be used only for speciﬁ ed applications.

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

wheel.

Abrasive cut-oﬀ wheels are intended for peripheral

grinding, side forces applied to these wheels may cause

them to shatter.

e) Always use undamaged wheel ﬂ anges that are of

correct size and shape for your selected wheel.

Proper wheel ﬂ anges support the wheel thus reducing

the possibility of wheel breakage. Flanges for cut-oﬀ

wheels may be diﬀ erent from grinding wheel ﬂ anges.

f) Do not use worn down wheels from larger power

tools.

A wheel intended for larger power tool is not suitable for

the higher speed of a smaller tool and may burst.

g) When using dual purpose wheels always use the

correct guard for the application being performed.

Failure to use the correct guard may not provide the

desired level of guarding, which could lead to serious

injury.

ADDITIONAL SAFETY WARNINGS

SPECIFIC FOR ABRASIVE CUTTING-

OFF OPERATIONS

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

pressure. Do not attempt to make an excessive

depth of cut.

Overstressing 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.

b) 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.

c) When the wheel is binding or when interrupting

a cut for any reason, switch oﬀ the power tool

and hold it motionless until the wheel comes to a

complete stop. Never attempt to remove the cut-

oﬀ wheel from the cut while the wheel is in motion

otherwise kickback may occur.

Investigate and take corrective action to eliminate the

cause of wheel binding.

d) 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.
