| ENGLISCH – ORIGINAL INSTRUCTIONS
j) Keep bystanders a safe distance away from the work area. Anyone
entering the work area must wear personal protective equipment.
Fragments of workpiece or of a broken accessory may fly away and cause
injury beyond immediate area of operation.
k) Hold the power tool only by the insulated gripping surfaces when
performing an operation where the cutting tool may contact hidden wiring
or its own cord. Contact with a "live" wire will also make exposed metal parts
of the power tool "live" and shock the operator.
l) Position the cord clear of the spinning accessory. If you lose control of the
power tool, the cord may be cut or snagged and your hand or arm may be
pulled into the spinning accessory.
m) 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.
n) Do not run the power tool while carrying it at your side. Accidental
contact with the spinning accessory could snag your clothing, pulling the
accessory into your body.
o) 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.
p) Do not operate the power tool near flammable materials. Sparks could
ignite these materials.
q) Do not use accessories that require liquid coolants. Using water or other
liquid coolants may result in electrocution or shock.

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.
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 reactions or kickback forces, if proper precautions
are taken.
b) Never place your hand near the rotating accessory. The accessory may
kickback over your hand.
c) Do not position your body in the area where the power tool will move if
kickback occurs. Kickback will propel the tool in the 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 over the power tool.
f) 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.
g) 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.
h) Do not restart the cutting operation in the workpiece. Let the wheel
reach full speed and carefully reenter the cut. The wheel may bind, walk up
or kickback if the power tool is restarted in the workpiece.
i) 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.
j) 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.

ADDITIONAL SAFETY WARNINGS

a) Use suitable detectors to determine if utility lines are hidden in the work
area or call the local utility company for assistance. Contact with electric
lines can lead to fire and electric shock. Damaging a gas line can lead to
explosion. Penetrating a water line causes property damage or may cause an
electric shock.
b) When working stone, use dust extraction. The vacuum cleaner must be
approved for the extraction of stone dust. Using this equipment reduces
dust-related hazards.
c) When working with the machine, always hold it firmly with both hands
and provide for a secure stance. The power tool is guided more secure with
both hands.
d) Secure the workpiece. A workpiece clamped with clamping devices or in a
vice is held more secure than by hand.
e) Never use the machine with a damaged cable. Do not touch the damaged
cable and pull the mains plug when the cable is damaged while working.
Damaged cables increase the risk of an electric shock.
