i)
Keep bystanders a safe distance away from
work area. Anyone entering the work area
must wear personal protective equipment.
Fragments of workpiece or of a broken
accessory may fl y away and cause injury
beyond immediate area of operation.
j)
Hold power tool by insulated gripping
surfaces
only,
operation where the cutting accessory may
contact hidden wiring or its own cord.
Cutting accessory contacting a "live" wire may
make exposed metal parts of the power tool
"live" and shock the operator.
k) Position the cord clear of the spinning
accessory.
If you lose control, the cord may be cut or
snagged and your hand or arm may be pulled
into the spinning accessory.
l)
Never lay the power tool down until the
accessory has come to a complete stop.
The spinning accessory may grab the surface
and pull the power tool out of your control.
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
into 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
fl ammable materials.
Sparks could ignite these materials.
p) Do not use accessories that require liquid
coolants.
Using water or other liquid coolants may result
in electrocution or shock.
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

when
performing
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.
an
a) Maintain a fi rm 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 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
snagging 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.
SAFETY WARNINGS SPECIFIC
FOR GRINDING OPERATIONS
a) Use
only
recommended for your power tool and the
specifi c guard designed for the selected
wheel.
Wheels for which the power tool was not
designed cannot be adequately guarded and
are unsafe.
b) Wheels
must
recommended applications. For example:
do not grind with the side of cut-off wheel.
Abrasive cut-off wheels are intended for
peripheral grinding, side forces applied to these
wheels may cause them to shatter.
c) Always use undamaged wheel fl anges
that are of correct size and shape for your
selected wheel.
