FURTHER SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR ALL OPERATIONS
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 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.
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.
Do not attach a saw chain woodcarving blade or toothed saw
blade.
Such blades create frequent kickback and loss of control.

ADDITIONAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR gRINDINg AND
CUTTINg-OFF OPERATIONS
SAFETY WARNINgS SPECIFIC FOR gRINDINg AND
AbRASIVE CUTTINg-OFF OPERATIONS:
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.
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.
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.
