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 fi rm 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
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 specifi c guard designed
for the selected wheel.
Wheels for which the power tool was not designed
cannot be adequately guarded and are unsafe.
b) 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.
c) Always use undamaged wheel fl anges that are of
correct size and shape for your selected wheel.
Proper wheel fl anges support the wheel thus reducing
the possibility of wheel breakage. Flanges for cut-off
wheels may be diff erent from grinding wheel fl anges.
d) 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.
ADDITIONAL 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.

hand near the rotating
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
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.
GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR
CORDLESS MINI GRINDERS
– Check that speed marked on the wheel is equal to or
greater than the rated speed of the grinder;
– Ensure that the wheel dimensions are compatible with
the grinder;
– Abrasive wheels shall be stored and handled with care
in accordance with manufacturer's instructions;
– Inspect the grinding wheel before use, do not use
chipped, cracked or otherwise defective products;
– Ensure that mounted wheels and points are fi tted in
accordance with the manufacturer's instructions;
– Ensure that blotters are used when they are provided
with the bonded abrasive product and when they are
required;
– Do not use the power tool to machine materials that
contain components that are harmful to health.
– Use the designated accessory or attachment.
– Ensure that the abrasive product is correctly mounted
and tightened before use and run the tool at no-
load for 30 s in a safe position, stop immediately if
there is considerable vibration or if other defects are
detected. If this condition occurs, check the machine
to determine the cause;
– If a guard is equipped with the tool never use the tool
without such a guard;
– Do not use separate reducing bushings or adapters to
adapt large hole abrasive wheels;
– For tools intended to be fi tted with threaded hole
wheel, ensure that the thread in the wheel is long
enough to accept the spindle length;
– Check that the work piece is properly supported;
– Do not use cutting off wheel for side grinding;
– Ensure that sparks resulting from use do not create
a hazard e.g. do not hit persons, or ignite fl ammable
substances;
– Ensure that ventilation openings are kept clear when
working in dusty conditions, if it should become
necessary to clear dust, fi rst disconnect the tool from
the mains supply (use non metallic objects) and avoid
damaging internal parts;
– Always use eye and ear protection. Other personal
protective equipment such as dust mask, gloves,
helmet and apron should be worn;
– Pay attention to the wheel that continues to rotate after
the tool is switched off .
– Always charge the battery at a temperature of 0 –
40°C.
A temperature of less than 0°C will result in over
charging which is dangerous. The battery cannot be
charged at a temperature greater than 40°C.
The most suitable temperature for charging is that of
20 – 25°C.
– Do not use the charger continuously.
When one charging is completed, leave the charger for
about 15 minutes before the next charging of battery.
