a) Maintain a firm grip on the power tool and position your body and arm toallow you to resist kick-
back 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 and Abrasive 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 ade-
quately 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 operator
from broken wheel fragments, accidental contact with wheel and sparks that could ignite clothing.
d) Wheels must be used only for 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.
e) Always use undamaged wheel flanges that are of correct size and shape for your selected wheel.
Proper wheel flanges support the wheel thus reducing the possibility of wheel breakage. Flanges for
cut-off wheels may be different from grinding wheel flanges.
f) Do not use worn down wheels from larger power tools.
Wheel intended for larger power tool is not suitable for the higher speed of a smaller tool and may
burst.
Safety Warnings Specific for Abrasive Cutting-Off Operations:
a) Do not "jam" the cut-off wheel or apply excessive pressure. Do not attempt to make an excessive
depth of cut.
Overstressing the wheel increases the loading and susceptibility to twisting or binding of the wheel
in the cut and the possibility of kickback or wheel breakage.
b) Do not position your body in line with and behind the rotating wheel. When the wheel, at the point
of operation, is moving away from your body, the possible kickback may propel the spinning wheel
and the power tool directly at you.
c) When wheel is binding or when interrupting a cut for any reason, switch off the power tool and
hold the power tool motionless until the wheel comes to a complete stop. Never attempt to remove
the cut-off wheel from the cut while the wheel is in motion otherwise kickback may occur.
Investigate and take corrective action to eliminate the cause of wheel binding.
d) Do not restart the cutting operation in the work piece. Let the wheel reach
