Do not touch the bit or collet after use.
After use the bit and collet are too hot to be
touched by bare hands.
Do not alter or misuse tool. Any alteration
or modification is a misuse and may result
in serious personal injury.

▶ 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.
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
kickout. 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. The operator can
control kickback
precautions are taken.
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 toothed saw blade. Such
blades create frequent kickback and loss of
control.
Always feed the bit into the material in the
same direction as the cutting edge is
exiting from the material (which is the
same direction as the chips are thrown).
Feeding the tool in the wrong direction
causes the cutting edge of the bit to climb
out of the work and pull the tool in the
direction of this feed.
Safety Rules for Rotary Tools
forces, if proper
When using rotary files, cut-off wheels,
high-speed cutters or tungsten carbide
cutters, always have the work securely
clamped. These wheels will grab if they
become slightly canted in the groove, and
can kickback. When a cut-off wheel grabs,
the wheel itself usually breaks. When a
rotary file, high-speed cutter or tungsten
carbide cutter grabs, it may jump from the
groove and you could lose control of the
tool.
▶ Safety warnings specific for
grinding and abrasive cutting-
off operations:
Use only wheel
recommended for your power tool and
only for recommended applications. For
example: do not grind with the side of a
cut-off wheel. Abrasive cut-off wheels are
intended for peripheral grinding, side forces
applied to these wheels may cause them to
shatter.
For threaded abrasive cones and plugs use
only undamaged wheel mandrels with an
unrelieved shoulder flange that are of
correct size and length. Proper mandrels
will reduce the possibility of breakage.
Do not jam a 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
snagging of the wheel in the cut and the
possibility of kickback or wheel breakage.
Do not position your hand in line with and
behind the rotating wheel. When the wheel,
at the point of operation, is moving away
from your hand, the possible kickback may
propel the spinning wheel and the power
tool directly at you.
When wheel is pinched, snagged or when
interrupting a cut for any reason, switch
off the power tool and hold the power tool
motionless until the wheel comes to a
complete stop. Never attempt to remove
the cut-off wheel from the cut while the
wheel is in motion otherwise kickback may
occur. Investigate and take corrective action
to eliminate the cause of wheel pinching or
snagging.
Do not restart the cutting operation in the
workpiece. Let the wheel reach full speed
and carefully re-enter the cut. The wheel
may bind, walk up or kickback if the power
tool is restarted in the workpiece.
