▪
The backlash occurs due to an incorrect use of the power tool
or due to a not proper working procedure which can cause
serious injuries to the user. To avoid the backlash, the
following precautions must be considered:
- Always use the auxiliary handle to have as much control as
possible over the backlash forces or reaction torques while
operating the equipment;
- Place and keep the rotating accessory in the right position
and well tightened;
- Do not place yourself in the area where the power tool will
move in case of a backlash;
▪ Never place your hands near the rotating accessory once it
may revert over them. Keep your hands away from the
rotating accessories;
▪ When the rotating accessory gets stuck, switch off the power
tool. In case of losing control, unplug the power cord
immediately;
▪
To avoid displacements or projections use a fixing tool or a
bench vice to ensure a safe performance. Place/maintain the
object in a correct and stable position;
▪
Never leave the equipment before the rotating accessory is
completely stopped. The rotating accessory may touch the
surface, making you lose the control over the machine;
▪
Make sure that the ventilation grids are not blocked while
operating the machine. Do not place any objects over the
grids;
▪
The drills chucks and the power tool itself may get hot during
the work. Any accidental contact may burn;
▪
Make sure that you don't damage the electrical circuits, gas
and water pipes when operating the equipment. Any of
these damages may cause fires, explosions, electrical shocks
or several expensive losses;
▪
Avoid using the machine on surfaces coated with paints
containing lead or other materials harmful to health. Any
contact or inhalation of dust may cause allergic reactions and
/ or breathing diseases. Wear a mask and work with a dust
extraction device if the machine allows it;
▪
Materials containing asbestos cannot be worked. Asbestos is
carcinogenic.
