• Kickback is a sudden reaction to a
pinched or snagged rotating wheel, backing pad, brush or
any other accessory. Pinching 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. 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.
• 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.
• Never place your hand near the rotating accessory.
Accessory may kickback over your hand.
• 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.
• 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.

Before operating the tool
• Keep your hands away from the moving accessories.
• Let the accessory develop its highest speed before
making contact with the work piece.
• Never start the tool when the accessory is inside the
work piece material.
• When carving, milling or cutting use special attention to
the direction you work the material. To prevent from
kickback push the accessory towards the shooting
shavings.
• If the accessory gets stuck into the work piece,
immediately turn off the tool, disconnect, and then
release the stuck material.
