ENGLISH
•
Do not operate the power tool near
flammable materials. Sparks could ignite
these materials.
•
Do not use accessories that require liquid
coolants. Using water or other liquid coolants
may result in electrocution or shock.
Note: The above warning does not apply for
power tools specifically designed for use with a
liquid system.
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.

Safety warnings specific for
grinding and abrasive
cutting-off operations
•
•
•
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.
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.
