Do not use accessories that require liquid
coolants.
Using water or other liquid coolants
may result in electrocution or shock.
2.3.2 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 acces-
sory.
Accessory may kickback over your hand.
c)
Do not position your body in the area where
power tool will move if kickback occurs.
Kick-
back will propel the tool in direction opposite to
the wheel’s movement at the point of snagging.
d)
Use special care when working corners, sharp
edges, etc. Avoid bouncing and snagging the
accessory.
Corners, sharp edges or bouncing
have a tendency to snag the rotating accessory
and cause loss of control or kickback.
e)
Do not attach a saw chain woodcarving blade or
toothed saw blade.
Such blades create frequent
kickback and loss of control.
2.3.3 Safety warnings specific for grinding and
abrasive cutting-off operations
a)
Use only wheel types that are recommended for
your power tool and the specific guard designed
for the selected wheel.
Wheels for which the
power tool was not designed cannot be adequately
guarded and are unsafe.
b)
The guard must be securely attached to the
power tool and positioned for maximum safety,
so the least amount of wheel is exposed towards
the operator.
The guard helps to protect opera-
tor from broken wheel fragments and accidental
contact with wheel.
c)
Wheels must be used only for recommended
applications. For example: do not grind with the
side of cut-off wheel.
Abrasive cut-off wheels are
intended for peripheral grinding, side forces ap-
plied to these wheels may cause them to shatter.
d)
Always use undamaged wheel flanges that are
of correct size and shape for your selected
wheel.
Proper wheel flanges support the wheel
thus reducing the possibility of wheel breakage.
Flanges for cut-off wheels may be different from
grinding wheel flanges.
e)
Do not use worn down wheels from larger power
tools.
Wheel intended for larger power tool is not
suitable for the higher speed of a smaller tool and
may burst.
2.3.4 Additional safety warnings specific for
abrasive cutting-off operations
a)
Do not “jam” the cut-off wheel or apply ex-
cessive pressure. Do not attempt to make an
excessive depth of cut.
Overstressing the wheel
increases the loading and susceptibility to twist-
ing or binding of the wheel in the cut and the
possibility of kickback or wheel breakage.
b)
Do not position your body in line with and behind
the rotating wheel.
When the wheel, at the point
of operation, is moving away from your body, the
possible kickback may propel the spinning wheel
and the power tool directly at you.
c)
When wheel is binding or when interrupting a
cut for any reason, switch off the power tool
and hold the power tool motionless until the
wheel comes to a complete stop. Never attempt
to remove the cut-off wheel from the cut while
