Never put down the electric power tool

until the insertion tool has come to
a standstill. The rotating insertion tool may
come into contact with the support
surface, possibly resulting in you losing
control of the electric power tool.
Tighten the chuck or other securing

elements firmly after changing inserts or
performing settings on the equipment.
Loose securing elements may change
their position unexpectedly and lead to
loss of control; unsecured, rotating
components will be ejected under high
force.
Never leave the electric power tool running

while you are carrying it. Your clothing
may become caught by accidental contact
with the rotating insertion tool which may
then drill into your body.
Regularly clean the ventilation slots on

your electric power tool. The motor fan
draws dust into the housing; a large build-
up of metal dust may cause electrical
hazards.
Never use the electric power tool near

combustible materials. Sparks may ignite
these materials.
Never use insertion tools which require

liquid coolants. The use of water or other
liquid coolants may result in electric shock.
Special safety instructions for sanding
Only use sanding media approved for your

power tool and only for the recommended
activities.
Recoil and appropriate safety
instructions
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
16
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.
Hold the electric power tool firmly and

position your body and arms to allow
you to absorb kickback forces. The
operator can control kickback and reaction
forces by taking appropriate precautions.
Work especially carefully near corners,

sharp edges, etc. Prevent the insertion
tool from recoiling off the workpiece and
jamming. The rotating insertion tool has a
tendency to snag on corners, sharp edges
or if it bounces. This causes a loss of
control or kickback.
Do not use a chain or toothed saw blade.

Such insertion tools frequently cause
a kickback or the loss of control of the
electric power tool.
Always direct the insert into the material in

the same direction in which the cutting
edge exits the material (equates to the
same direction in which sawdust is
discharged). Guiding the power tool in the
wrong direction will cause the cutting edge
of the insert to break out of the workpiece
and pull the power tool in the same
direction.
Always firmly clamp the workpiece when

using rotary files, cutting discs, high-speed
milling cutters or carbide milling tools. If
these tools/attachment are even slightly
tilted in the groove, they will catch and
cause a kickback. When cutting discs
catch they usually crack. When rotary files,
high-speed milling cutters or carbide
milling tools catch, the tool insert can jump
out of the groove and cause loss of control
of the power tool.
