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.
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
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 re-enter the cut. The
wheel may bind, walk up or kickback
if the power tool is restarted in the
workpiece.
e) 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.
f) 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.
3. Specific Safety Rules
- 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 fitted 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.
- 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
