FURTHER SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR ALL

OPERATIONS

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 firm grip 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.

TO USE THE GRINDER

Attention:

Do not switch the grinder on whilst the disc is in contact with the workpiece.

Allow the disc to reach full speed before starting to grind.Hold your angle grinder with

one hand on the main handle and other hand firmly around the auxiliary

handle.Always position the guard so that as much of the exposed disc as possible is

pointing away from you.Be prepared for a stream of sparks when the disc touches the

metal.For best tool control, material removal and minimum overloading, maintain an

angle between the disc and work surface of approximately 15°-30° when grinding.Use

caution when working into corners as contact with the intersecting surface may cause
