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.
Maintain a firm grip on the power
1.
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.
Never place your hand near the
2.
rotating accessory. Accessory may
kickback over your hand.
Do not position your body in line
3.
with the rotating wheel. Kickback will
propel the tool in direction opposite to the
wheel's movement at the point of snagging.
Use special care when working
4.
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.
Do not attach a saw chain,
5.
woodcarving blade, segmented
diamond wheel with a peripheral
gap greater than 10 mm or toothed
saw blade. Such blades create frequent
kickback and loss of control.
Do not "jam" the wheel or apply
6.
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.
When wheel is binding or when
7.
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 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.
Do not restart the cutting operation
8.
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
the workpiece.
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.
10. 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.
Safety warnings for diamond discs
1. Cutting-off tools are very fragile and likely to
break which is why great care must be taken
when handling the cutting-off tools. Using
damaged, incorrectly clamped or incorrectly
installed cutting-off tool is dangerous and may
cause serious injury.
2. Cutting-off tools are to be treated with care
and transported carefully. Cutting-off tools
should be stored in such a way that they
are not exposed to mechanical damage or
harmful environmental influences.
