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.
1. 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.
2. Never place your hand near the rotating
accessory. Accessory may kickback over your
hand.
3. Do not position your body in the area where
power tool will move if kick- back occurs.
Kickback will propel the tool in direction opposite to
the wheel’s movement at the point of snagging.
