2) 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 the 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.

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

The operator can control torque

reactions or kickback forces, if proper precautions are

taken.

b) Never place your hand near the rotating accessory.

The 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 the 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

or toothed saw blade. Such blades create frequent

kickback and loss of control.

3) SAFETY WARNINGS SPECIFIC FOR SANDING

OPERATIONS

a) When sanding, do not use excessively oversized

sanding disc paper. Follow the manufacturers’

recommendations when selecting sanding paper.

Larger sanding paper extending beyond the sanding

pad presents a laceration hazard and may cause

snagging, tearing of the disc, or kickback.

obtained from your SKIL dealer

• For mounting/using non-SKIL accessories observe the

instructions of the manufacturer concerned

OUTDOOR USE

• Connect the tool via a fault current (FI) circuit breaker

with a triggering current of 30 mA maximum

BEFORE USE

• Before using the tool for the rst time, it is recommended

to receive practical information

• Always check that the supply voltage is the same as

the voltage indicated on the nameplate of the tool (tools

with a rating of 230V or 240V can also be connected to

a 220V supply)

or call the local utility company for assistance

(contact with electric lines can lead to re or electrical

shock; damaging a gas line can result in an explosion;

penetrating a water pipe will cause property damage or

an electrical shock)

• Do not work materials containing asbestos

(asbestos is considered carcinogenic)

• Dust from material such as paint containing lead, some

wood species, minerals and metal may be harmful

(contact with or inhalation of the dust may cause allergic

reactions and/or respiratory diseases to the operator or

bystanders); wear a dust mask and work with a dust

extraction device when connectable

• Certain kinds of dust are classied as carcinogenic

(such as oak and beech dust) especially in conjunction

with additives for wood conditioning; wear a dust

mask and work with a dust extraction device when

connectable

• Follow the dust-related national requirements for the

materials you want to work with

• Do not clamp the tool in a vice

• Use completely unrolled and safe extension cords with a

capacity of 16 Amps (U.K. 13 Amps)

DURING USE

• Do not touch the moving sanding disc

• Do not continue to use worn, torn or heavily clogged

sanding discs

• Inrush currents cause short-time voltage drops; under

unfavourable power supply conditions, other equipment

may be aected (if the system impedance of the power

supply is lower than 0,25 Ohm, disturbances are unlikely

to occur); if you need further clarication, you may

contact your local power supply authority

• If the cord is damaged or cut through while working, do

not touch the cord, but immediately disconnect the plug

• Never use the tool when cord is damaged; have it

replaced by a qualied person

immediately switch o the tool and disconnect the plug

• In case of current interruption or when the plug is

accidentally pulled out, unlock the on/o switch S ②
