▪ The kickback is a sudden reaction that happens when
the power tool is switched on and the disc gets
jammed. The rotating accessory kickback forces the
power tool to rotate in the opposite direction to the
rotation of the accessory;
▪ The kickback occurs due to an incorrect use of the
power tool or due to an improper working procedure
which can cause serious injuries to the user. Loss of
control can result in serious injury. To avoid the
kickback, the following precautions must be
considered:
- Always use the auxiliary handle for maximum
control over kickback or torque during acceleration
and start-up of the angle grinder;

position and tighten it firmly;

tool will move if kickback occurs;
