operation. Prolonged exposure to high
intensity noise may cause hearing loss.
i) keep bystanders a safe distance away
from 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.
j) hold the power tool by insulated
gripping surfaces only, when
performing an operation where
the cutting accessory may contact
hidden wiring or its own cord. Cutting
accessory contacting a ''live'' wire may
make exposed metal parts of the power
tool ''live'' and could give the operator
an electric shock.
k) 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 accessory.
l) 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.
m) 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.
n) 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.
o) Do not operate the power tool near
flammable materials. Sparks could
ignite these materials.
p) 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. 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
SANdINg OPERATIONS
a) Do not use excessively oversized
sanding disc paper. follow
manufacturers recommendations,
when selecting sanding paper. Larger
sanding paper extending beyond the
sanding pad presents a laceration
hazard and may cause snagging,
tearing of the disc or kickback.
AddITIONAL SAFETY INFORmATION
• Never use this power tool for grinding,
wire brushing, polishing or cutting-off
operations.
• Air vents often cover moving parts
and should be avoided. Loose clothes,
jewelry or long hair can be caught in
moving parts.
· 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 work area and
near the edge of the workpiece on both
sides of the wheel.
wARNINg:
glasses. Everyday eyeglasses are NOT
safety glasses. Also use face or dust
mask if cutting operation is dusty.
ALWAYS WEAR CERTIFIED SAFETY
EQUIPMENT:
• ANSI Z87.1 eye protection (CAN/CSA Z94.3),
