1 .
Maintain a firm grip on the power tool and
position your body and arm to allow you to
resist kickback forces. Alw ays use auxiliary
handle, if provided, for maximum control over
kickback or torque reaction during start-up.
The operator can control torque reactions or kick
-
back forces, if proper precautions are taken.
2 .
Never place your hand near the rotating acces-
sory.
Accessory may kickback over your hand.
3 .
Do not position your body in the area w here
pow er tool w ill move if kickback occurs.
Kickback will propel the tool in direction opposite
to the wheel’s movement at the point of snagging.
4 .
Use special care w hen w orking 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.
5 .
Do not attach a saw chain w oodcarving blade
or toothed saw blade.
Such blades create fre
-
quent kickback and loss of control.
Safety Warnings Specific for rinding and Abrasive
Cutting-Off Operations:
1 .
Use only w heel types that are recommended
for your power tool and the specific guard
designed for the selected w heel.
Wheels for
which the power tool was not designed cannot be
adequately guarded and are unsafe.
2 .
The grinding surface of centre depressed w heels
must be mounted below the plane of the guard lip.
An improperly mounted wheel that projects through the
plane of the guard lip cannot be adequately protected.
3 .
The guard must be securely attached to the
pow er tool and positioned for maximum safety,
so the least amount of w heel is exposed tow ards
the operator.
The guard helps to protect the opera
-
tor from broken wheel fragments, accidental contact
with wheel and sparks that could ignite clothing.
4 .
Wheels must be used only for recommended
applications. For example: do not grind w ith the
side of cut-off w heel.
Abrasive cut-off wheels are
intended for peripheral grinding, side forces applied
to these wheels may cause them to shatter.
5 .
Always use undamaged wheel anges that are of
correct size and shape for your selected w heel.
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.
6 .
Do not use w orn dow n w heels from larger pow er
tools.
Wheel intended for larger power tool is not suitable
for the higher speed of a smaller tool and may burst.
Additional Safety Warnings Specific for Abrasive
Cutting-Off Operations:
1 .
Do not “jam“ the cut-off w heel or apply exces-
sive pressure. Do not attempt to make an
excessive depth of cut.
Overstressing the wheel
increases the loading and susceptibility to twisting
or binding of the wheel in the cut and the possibil
-
ity of kickback or wheel breakage.
2 .
Do not position your body in line w ith and
behind the rotating w heel.
When the wheel, at
the point of operation, is moving away from your
body, the possible kickback may propel the spin
-
ning wheel and the power tool directly at you.
3 .
When w heel is binding or w hen interrupting
a cut for any reason, sw itch off the pow er
tool and hold the pow er tool motionless until
the w heel comes to a complete stop. Never
attempt to remove the cut-off w heel from the
cut w hile the w heel is in motion otherw ise
kickback may occur.
Investigate and take correc-
tive action to eliminate the cause of wheel binding.
4 .
Do not restart the cutting operation in the w ork-
piece. Let the w heel reach full speed and carefully
re-enter the cut.
The wheel may bind, walk up or
kickback if the power tool is restarted in the workpiece.
5 .
Support panels or any oversized w orkpiece to
minimize the risk of w heel pinching and kick-
back.
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.
6 .
Use extra caution w hen making a “pocket cut”
into existing w alls or other blind areas.
The
protruding wheel may cut gas or water pipes, elec
-
trical wiring or objects that can cause kickback.
Safety Warnings Specific for Sanding Operations:
1 .
Do not use excessively oversized sanding
disc paper. Follow manufacturers recommen-
dations, w hen 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 Specific for Wire Brushing Operations:
1 .
Be aw are that w ire bristles are throw n by the
brush even during ordinary operation. Do not
overstress the w ires by applying excessive
load to the brush.
The wire bristles can easily
penetrate light clothing and/or skin.
2 .
If the use of a guard is recommended for w ire
brushing, do not allow any interference of the
w ire w heel or brush w ith the guard.
Wire wheel
or brush may expand in diameter due to work load
and centrifugal forces.
Additional Safety Warnings:
1 .
When using depressed centre grinding w heels,
be sure to use only fiberglass-reinforced wheels.
2 .
NEVER USE Stone Cup type w heels w ith this
grinder.
This grinder is not designed for these
types of wheels and the use of such a product
may result in serious personal injury.
3 .
Be careful not to damage the spindle, the
ange (especially the installing surface) or the
lock nut. Damage to these parts could result in
w heel breakage.
4 .
Make sure the w heel is not contacting the
w orkpiece before the sw itch is turned on.
5 .
Before using the tool on an actual w orkpiece,
let it run for a w hile. Watch for vibration or
w obbling that could indicate poor installation
or a poorly balanced w heel.
6 .
Use the specified surface of the wheel to per
-
form the grinding.
7 .
Do not leave the tool running. Operate the tool
only w hen hand-held.
8 .
Do not touch the w orkpiece immediately after
operation; it may be extremely hot and could
burn your skin.
