c)
The guard must be securely attached to the power tool and positioned for maximum
safety, so the least amount of wheel is exposed towards the operator. The guard
helps to protect the operator from broken wheel fragments, accidental contact with
wheel and sparks that could ignite clothing.
d)
Wheels must be used only for recommended applications. For example: do not grind
with the side of cut-off wheel. Abrasive cut-off wheels are intended for peripheral
grinding, side forces applied to these wheels may cause them to shatter.
e)
Always use undamaged wheel flanges that are of correct size and shape for your
selected wheel. 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.
f)
Do not use worn down wheels from larger power tools. Wheel intended for larger
power tool is not suitable for the higher speed of a smaller tool and may burst.
6. ADDITIONAL SAFETY WARNINGS FOR ABRASIVE AND
CUTTING OFF OPERATIONS
a)
Do not “jam” the cut-off wheel or apply excessive 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 possibility of
kickback or wheel breakage.
b)
Do not position your body in line with and behind the rotating wheel.
When the wheel,
at the point of operation, is moving away from your body, the possible kickback may
propel the spinning wheel and the power tool directly at you.
c)
When wheel is binding or when interrupting a cut for any reason, switch off the power
tool and hold the power tool motionless until the wheel comes to a complete stop.
Never attempt to remove the cut-off wheel from the cut while the wheel is in motion
otherwise kickback may occur.
Investigate and take corrective action to eliminate
the cause of wheel binding.
d)
Do not restart the cutting operation in the work-piece. Let the wheel 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 work-piece.
e)
Support panels or any oversized work-piece to minimize the risk of wheel pinching
and kickback.
Large work-pieces tend to sag under their own weight. Supports must
be placed under the work-piece near the line of cut and near the edge of the work-
piece on both sides of the wheel.
f)
Use extra caution when making a “pocket cut” into existing walls or other blind areas.
The protruding wheel may cut gas or water pipes, electrical wiring or objects that can
cause kickback.
Safety Warnings Specific for Grinding Operations
:
a)
Use only wheel types that are recommended for your power tool and the specific
guard designed for the selected wheel.
Wheels for which the power tool was not
designed cannot be adequately guarded and are unsafe.
b)
The guard must be securely attached to the power tool and positioned for maximum
safety, so the least amount of wheel is exposed towards the operator.
The guard helps
to protect operator from broken wheel fragments and accidental contact with
wheel.
c)
Wheels must be used only for recommended applications.
For example: do not grind
with the side of cut-off wheel.
Abrasive cut-off wheels are intended for peripheral
grinding, side forces applied to these wheels may cause them to shatter.
d)

selected wheel.
