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.
d)
Use special care when
