Kickback And Related Warnings - BGS technic 9337 Manual De Instrucciones

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 the 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.
•
Never place your hand near the rotating accessory. The 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 the 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.
