personal protective equipment. Fragments of workpiece or of a broken accessory may fly away
and cause injury beyond immediate area of operation.
j)
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.
k)
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.
l)
Do not run the power tool while carrying it at your side. Accidental contact with the spinning acces-
sory could snag your clothing, pulling the accessory into your body.
m)
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.
n)
Do not operate the power tool near flammable materials. Sparks could ignite these materials.
o)
Do not use accessories that require liquid coolants. Using water or other liquid coolants may result
in electrocution or shock.
Further Safety Instructions for All Operations
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 tool misuse and/or incorrect operating procedures or conditions 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 reaction 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 Polishing Operations
●
Do not allow any loose portion of the polishing bonnet or its attachment strings to spin freely. Tuck
away or trim any loose attachment strings. Loose and spinning attachment strings can entangle
your fingers or snag on the workpiece.
Additional Specific Safety Instructions for Polishers
●
Clean out your tool often, especially after heavy use. Dust and grit containing metal particles often
accumulate on interior surfaces and could create an electric shock hazard.
●
Do not operate this tool for long periods of time. Vibration caused by the operating action of this
tool may cause permanent injury to fingers, hands and arms. Use gloves to provide extra cushion,
take frequent rest periods and limit daily time of use.
