m) Do not run the power tool while carrying it at your side. Accidental contact with the
spinning accessory could snag your clothing, pulling the accessory to your body.
n) Regularly clean the power tool's air vents. The motor's fan will draw the dust inside
the housing and excessive accumulation of powdered metal may cause electrical hazards.
o) Do not operate the power tool near flammable materials. Sparks could ignite these
materials.
p) Do not use accessories that require liquid coolants. Using water or other liquid coo-
lants may result in electrocution or shock.
4.2 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 condi-
tions and can be avoided by taking proper precautions as given below.
a) 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.
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 the opposite direction 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 or toothed saw blade. Such blades
create frequent kickback and loss of control.
4.3 Safety Warnings Specific for Grinding and Cutting-Off Operations:
a) 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.
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 fragments, accidental contact with the wheel and sparks
which could ignite clothing.
