Kickback and corresponding safety instructions
Kickback is a sudden reaction caused when a rotating accessory tool, e.g. grinding disc,
grinding band, wire brush, etc., catches or jams and leads to an abrupt stop of the rotating
accessory tool. If this happens, an uncontrolled power tool will turn rapidly against the
direction of rotation of the accessory tool.
If, for example, a grinding disc catches or jams, the edge of the grinding disc that is
projecting into the workpiece can get caught and break off the grinding disc or cause a
kickback. The grinding disc can then fly in the direction of the operator or away from him,
depending on the direction of rotation of the disc at the blockage. This can also break
grinding discs.
A kickback is caused by improper or incorrect use of the power tool. This can be avoided
by taking proper precautions as described below.
a)
Hold the power tool firmly in both hands and position your body and arms so they
can absorb the force of a kickback.
By taking adequate precautions, the operator can
stay in control of the kickback forces.
b)
Take special care when working on corners, sharp edges, etc. Avoid allowing the
accessory tool to bounce back from the workpiece or jam in the workpiece.
The
rotating accessory tool is more likely to jam in corners or sharp edges or if it rebounds
off them. This can cause a loss of control or kickback.
e)
Do not use toothed saw blades.
Such accessories often cause a kickback or loss of
control over the power tool.
d)
Always move the accessory tool in the same direction in the material in which the
cutting edge leaves the material (in other words, the same direction in which the dust
is thrown out).
Guiding the power tool in the wrong direction will cause the cutting
edge of the accessory tool to jump out of the workpiece which can lead to the acces-
sory tool being pulled in this direction.
e)
Always clamp the workpiece when using rotary files, cutting discs, high-speed
milling tools or hard-metal tools.
Even a minimal tilting in the groove can cause these
tools to jam and lead to a kickback. When a cutting disc jams, it usually breaks. When
a rotary file, high-speed milling tool or hard-metal milling tool jams, the accessory tool
can jump out of the groove and lead to loss of control of the power tool.
