n) 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.
o) Do not operate the power tool near
fl ammable materials. Sparks could ignite
these materials.
p) 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 fi rm 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 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.
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 or toothed saw blade. Such blades
create frequent kickback and loss of control.
Safety warnings specifi c for grinding and
abrasive cutting-off operations:
a) Use only WHEEL TYPES that are
recommended for your power tool and
the specifi c guard designed for the
selected wheel. Wheels for which the power
tool was not designed cannot be adequately
guarded and are unsafe.
b) The grinding surface of centre depressed
wheels must be mounted below the plane
of the guard lip. An improperly mounted
wheel that projects through the plane of the
guard lip cannot be adequately protected.
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 diff erent 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.
Additional Safety Warnings Specifi c for
Abrasive 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.
