excess wear, wire brush for loose or
cracked wires. If power tool or accesso-
ry is dropped, inspect for damage or in-
stall an undamaged accessory. After
inspecting and installing an accessory,
position yourself and bystanders away
from the plane of the rotating accesso-
ry and run the power tool at maximum
no-load speed for one minute. Damaged
accessories will normally break apart during
this test time.
– Wear personal protective equipment.
Depending on application, use face
shield, safety goggles or safety glasses.
As appropriate, wear dust mask, hear-
ing protectors, gloves and workshop
apron capable of stopping small abra-
sive or workpiece fragments. The eye
protection must be capable of stopping fly-
ing debris generated by various operations.
The dust mask or respirator must be capable
of filtrating particles generated by your op-
eration. Prolonged exposure to high intensi-
ty noise may cause hearing loss.
– Keep bystanders a safe distance away
from work area. Anyone entering the
work area must wear personal protec-
tive equipment. Fragments of workpiece
or of a broken accessory may fly away and
cause injury beyond immediate area of op-
eration.
– 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 acces-
sory.
– Never lay the power tool down until the
accessory has come to a complete stop.
The spinning accessory may grab the sur-
face and pull the power tool out of your con-
trol.
– Do not run the power tool while carry-
ing it at your side. Accidental contact with
the spinning accessory could snag your
clothing, pulling the accessory into your
body.
– Regularly clean the power tool's air
vents. The motor's fan will draw the dust in-
side the housing and excessive accumula-

tion of powdered metal may cause electrical
hazards.
– Do not operate the power tool near
flammable materials. Sparks could ignite
these materials.
– Do not use accessories that require liq-
uid 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 move-
ment at the point of pinching. Abrasive wheels
may also break under these conditions. Kick-
back is the result of power tool misuse and/or
incorrect operating procedures or conditions
and can be avoided by taking proper precau-
tions as given below.
– Maintain a firm grip on the power tool
and position your body and arm to al-
low you to resist kickback forces. Al-
ways use auxiliary handle, if provided,
for maximum control over kickback or
torque reaction during start-up. The op-
erator can control torque reactions or kick-
back forces, if proper precautions are taken.
– Never place your hand near the rotating
accessory. Accessory may kickback over
your hand.
– Do not position your body in the area
where power tool will move if kickback
occurs. Kickback will propel the tool in di-
rection opposite to the wheel's movement at
the point of snagging.
– 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
