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.

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GRINDINGAND

ABRASIVECUTTING-OFFOPERATIONS

a) 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.

b) 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.

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recommended

applications.For example: Do not grind with the side of

a cut-o wheel. Abrasive cut-o wheels are intended for

peripheral grinding; side forces applied to these wheels

may cause them to shatter.

e) Alwaysuseundamagedwheelflangesthatareof

correctsizeandshapeforyourselectedwheel.

Proper wheel anges support the wheel thus reducing

the possibility of wheel breakage. Flanges for cut-o

wheels may be dierent from grinding wheel anges.

f) Donotuseworndownwheelsfromlargerpower

tools.A wheel intended for a larger power tool is not

suitable for the higher speed of a smaller tool and may

burst.

4)ADDITIONALSAFETYWARNINGSSPECIFICFOR

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the

powertool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.

e) Supportpanelsoranyoversizedworkpieceto

minimizetheriskofwheelpinching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 workpiece on both

sides of the wheel.

f) 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.
