Safety Warnings Specific for Grinding and Abrasive Cutting-Off Operations:
1. 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 areunsafe.
2. 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 adequately protected.
3. 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 the operator from broken wheel fragments, accidental contact with
wheel and sparks that could igniteclothing.
4. 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.
5. 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 wheelflanges.
6. 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 mayburst.
Additional Safety Warnings Specific for AbrasiveCutting-Off Operations:
1. 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.
2. 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.
3. 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 takecorrective action to eliminate the cause of wheel binding.
4. 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 theworkpiece.
5. 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.
6. 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.
