h) Wear personal protective equipment 4.Depending on application, use face shield,
safety goggles or safety glasses. As appropriate, wear dust mask, hearing
protectors, gloves and shop apron capable of stopping small abrasive or
workpiece fragments. The eye protection must be capable of stopping flying
debris generated by various operations. The dust mask or respirator must be
capable of filtrating particles generated by your operation. Prolonged exposure to
high intensity noise may cause hearing loss.
i) Keep bystanders a safe distance away from work area. Anyone entering the work
area must wear personal protective equipment. Fragments of the workpiece or of
a broken accessory may fly away and cause injury beyond the immediate area of
operation.
j) Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces only, when performing an operation
where the cutting accessory may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. A cutting
accessory contacting a "live" wire may make exposed metal parts of the power
tool "live" and could give the operator an electric shock.
k) 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.
l ) 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.
m) 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.
n) 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.
o) Do not operate the power tool near flammable materials. Sparks could ignite
these materials.
p) Do not use accessories that require liquid coolants. Using water or other liquid
coolants may result in electrocution or shock.
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.
