Do not restart the cutting operation if the cutting
wheel is in the workpiece. Let the cutting wheel
reach full speed and then carefully reenter the
cut.
The cutting wheel may bind, jump out or
kick back if the power tool is restarted with the
cutting wheel in the workpiece.
Support the panels or any oversized workpiece to
minimize the risk of wheel pinching or kickback.
Large workpieces tend to sag under their own
weight. Supports must be placed under the
workpiece near the line of cut on both sides of
the cutting wheel and at the ends of the work-
piece.
Use extra caution during “plunge cuts" in walls or
other blind areas.
The penetrating cutting wheel
may cut gas or water conduits, electrical wiring
or objects that could cause kickback.
Safety instructions, particularly for sanding
work with a sanding disc.
When sanding, do not use an excessively over-
sized sanding disc. Follow the manufacturer’s rec-
ommendations when selecting sanding discs.
Sanding discs larger than the backing pad present
a laceration hazard; they can tear, cause snag-
ging, rip off from the backing pad or cause kick-
back.
Special safety instructions for sanding work
with wire brushes.
Be aware that wire bristles are thrown by the
brush even during normal operation. Do not over-
stress the wire bristles by applying excessive load
to the brush.
The wire bristles can easily pene-
trate light clothing and/or the skin.
If the use of a guard is stipulated for sanding with
wire brushes, do not allow the wire bristles to con-
tact the guard.
The wire brush may expand in
diameter due to the work load and centrifugal
forces.
