l When carrying out work during
which it is possible that the tool may
come across hidden power cables or
its own cable, hold the device by the
insulated surfaces only. Contact with
a power-carrying cable may also put
metal parts of the device under power
and cause an electric shock.
m Keep the power cable away from
rotating tools. If you lose control over
the device, the power cable may be
cut or caught and your hand or arm
may be pulled into the rotating tool.
n Never set the power tool down
before the tool has come to a
completed standstill. The rotating
tool may come into contact with the
surface and cause you to lose control
over the power tool.
o Never operate the power tool when
you are carrying it. Your clothing may
be caught as a result of accidental
contact with the rotating tool causing
the tool to injure you.
p Clean the ventilation slots of your
power tool regularly. The motor fans
draw dust into the housing and a
large deposit of metal dust can cause
electrical hazards.
q Never use the electrical tool in the
vicinity of flammable materials.
Sparks may set fire to these materials.
Other safety notes for cutting disc
applications
Kickback and the appropriate safety
notes
Kickback is a sudden reaction caused
as a result of a jammed or blocked
rotating cutting disc. Jamming or
blocking causes the rotating tool to
come to an abrupt stop. This causes an
uncontrolled power tool to accelerate
against the direction of rotation of the
tool at the blocked point.
For example, if a cutting disc becomes
stuck or blocked in a workpiece, the
edge of the cutting disc that dips into
the workpiece may get caught and the
cutting disc will break away or cause
kickback. The cutting disc will then
move towards the operator or away
from them in accordance with the
direction of rotation of the disc at the
blocked point. This may also cause
cutting discs to break.
A kickback is a consequence of
incorrect or faulty operation of the
power tool. It can be prevented by the
use of suitable measures, as described
below:
a Hold the power tool securely with
both hands and position your body
and arms in such a way that you are
able to absorb any kickback. Always
use the additional handle, if there is
one available, in order to ensure you
have the greatest possible control
over kickback forces or reaction
torque when the tool is at top speed.
The operator is able to master
kickback or reaction forces if they
take the appropriate care.
b Never bring your hand close to the
rotating tool insert. The tool may
move over your hand in the event of
kickback.
c Avoid the area in front of and behind
the rotating cutting disc. Kickback
pushes the power tool in the opposite
direction to the movement of the
cutting disc at the blocked point.
