2. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
ES
q) Do not run the power tool while carrying it at your side. Accidental
contact with the spinning accessory could snag your clothing, pulling the
PT
accessory into your body.
r) Regularly clean the power tool's air vents. The motor's fan will draw the
IT
dust inside the housing and excessive accumulation of powdered metal may
cause electrical hazards.
EL
s) Do not operate the power tool near flammable materials. Sparks
could ignite these materials.
PL
t) Do not use accessories that require liquid coolants. Using water or
other liquid coolants may result in electrocution or shock.

KICKBACK AND RELATED WARNINGS
Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched or snagged rotating wheel, sanding
band, 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.
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. The operator can control
torque reactions or kickback forces, if proper precautions are taken.
b) 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.
c) Do not attach a toothed saw blade. Such blades create frequent kickback
and loss of control.
