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 conditions and can
be avoided by taking proper precautions as given below.
• 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.
• Support panels or any oversized workpiece to minimize
the risk of wheel pinching and kickback. Large workpieces
tend to sag under their own weight. Supports must be
placed under the workpiece near the line of cut and near

the edge of the workpiece on both sides of the wheel.
• Use extra caution when making a "pocket cut" into
existing walls or other blind areas. The protruding wheel
may cut gas or water pipes, electrical wiring or objects
that can cause kickback.
