If you lose control, the cord may be cut or snagged
and your hand or arm may be pulled into the spinning
wheel.
n) Never lay the power tool down until the accessory
has come to a complete stop. The spinning wheel
may grab the surface and pull the power tool out of
your control.
o) Do not run the power tool while carrying it at your
side. Accidental contact with the spinning accessory
could snag your clothing, pulling the accessory into
your body.
p) Regularly clean the power tool’s air vents. The
motor’s fan will draw the dust inside the housing and
excessive accumulation of powdered metal may cause
electrical hazards.
q) Do not operate the power tool near flammable
materials. Sparks could ignite these materials.
r) Do not use accessories that require liquid
coolants. Using water or other liquid coolants may
result in electrocution or shock.
FURTHER SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR
ABRASIVE CUTTING-OFF OPERATIONS
KICKBACK AND RELATED WARNINGS
Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched or snagged
rotating wheel. Pinching or snagging causes rapid stalling
of the rotating wheel which in turn causes the uncontrolled
power tool to be forced in the direction opposite of the
wheel’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.
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 start-up.
The operator can
control torque reactions or kickback forces, if proper
precautions are taken.
b) Never place your hand near the rotating accessory.
Accessory may kickback over your hand.
c) Do not position your body in line with the rotating
wheel. 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,
segmented diamond wheel with a peripheral gap
greater than 10 mm or toothed saw blade.
Such
blades create frequent kickback and loss of control.
f) Do not “jam” the 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.
g) 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
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.
h) Do not restart the cutting operation in the
workpiece. 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
workpiece.
i) Support panels or any oversized workpiece to
minimize the risk of wheel pinching and kickback.
Large workpieces tend to sag under their own weight.
Supports must be placed under the workpiece near the
line of cut and near the edge of the workpiece on both
sides of the wheel.
j) 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.
ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES
1. Always wear a dust mask.
