n) Do not operate the power tool near flammable materials. Sparks could ignite these
materials.
o) Do not use accessories that require liquid coolants. Using water or other liquid coolants
may result in electrocution or shock.
p) Your hand must hold on the handle when you are working. Loss of control can cause per-
sonal injury.
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 accessr
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. Abrsive
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 with both hands on the power tool and position your body and
arms 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 snag-
ging 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, segmented diamond wheel with a
peripheral gap greater than 10 mm or toothed saw blade. Such blades create frequent
kickback and loss of control.
Additional safety instructions for grinding and cutting-off operations
a) Use only wheel types that are specified for your power tool and the specific guard de
signed 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 specified applications. For example: do not grind with
the side of cut-off wheel. Abrasive cut-off wheels are intended for peripheral grinding, side
