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 cau-
sing 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 opera-
ting 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 startup.
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.
Kickback 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.
Electrical safety
Always check that the voltage of the power
supply corresponds to the voltage on the
rating plate.
• Do not use the machine if the mains cable or
the mains plug is damaged. If the supply cord of
this power tool is damaged, it must be replaced
by a specially prepared supply cord available
through the service organization.
•
Only use extension cables that are suitable for
the power rating of the machine with a minimum
thickness of 1.5 mm
2
. If you use an extension
cable reel, always fully unroll the cable.

Vibration level
The vibration emission level stated in this instruc-
tion manual has been measured in accordance
with a standardized test given in EN 62841; it may
be used to compare one tool with another and as
a preliminary assessment of exposure to vibration
when using the tool for the applications mentioned.
• the vibration emission during actual use of the
power tool can differ from the declared total
value depending on the ways in which the tool
is used;
• the need to identify safety measures to protect
the operator that are based on an estimation of
exposure in the actual conditions of use (taking
account of all parts of the operating cycle such
as the times when the tool is switched off and
when it is running idle in addition to the trigger
time).
Protect yourself against the effects of vibration by
maintaining the tool and its accessories, keeping
your hands warm, and organizing your work patterns.
