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 reenter 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 minimise 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.
Safety Warnings Specifi c for Sanding
Operations
a) Do not use excessively oversized sanding
disc paper. Follow manufacturer’s
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.
Safety Warnings Specifi c for
Polishing Operations
a) Do not allow any loose portion of the
polishing bonnet or its attachment strings
to spin freely. Tuck away or trim any loose
attachment strings.
Loose and spinning
attachment strings can entangle your fingers or
snag on the workpiece.
Safety Warnings Specifi c for Wire
Brushing Operations
a) Be aware that wire bristles are thrown by
the brush even during ordinary operation.
Do not overstress the wires by applying
excessive load to the brush.
The wire bristles
can easily penetrate light clothing and/or skin.
b) If the use of a guard is recommended for
wire brushing, do not allow any interference
of the wire wheel or brush with the guard.
Wire wheel or brush may expand in diameter
due to work and centrifugal forces.

regulations and the implementation of safety
