cause the bit to bind or jump toward you.
n) Position the cord clear of the spinning accessory.
If you lose
control, the cord may be cut or snagged and your hand or arm may
be pulled into the spinning accessory.
o) 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.
p) After changing the bits or making any adjustments, make
sure the collet nut, chuck or any other adjustment devices are
securely tightened.
Loose adjustment devices can unexpectedly
shift, causing loss of control, loose rotating components will be
violently thrown.
q) 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.
r) 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.
s) Do not operate the power tool near flammable materials.
Sparks could ignite these materials.
t) 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,
sanding band, 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.
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
