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.
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.
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.
Do not operate the power tool near

flammable materials. Sparks could ignite
these materials.
Do not use accessories that require liquid

coolants. Using water or other liquid
coolants may result in electrocution or
shock.
Special safety instructions for grinding
Sanding tools may be used for the

recommended applications only.
For example: Never sand with the side
area of a diamond sanding pad. Diamond
sanding pads are designed to remove
material with the underside of the
sanding pad. If a lateral force is applied to
these sanding tools, they may shatter.
Always use undamaged clamping

flanges in the correct size and shape for
the insertion tool you have selected.
Suitable flanges support the insertion
tools and therefore reduce the risk of a
break.
Do not use worn insertion tools from

larger electric power tools. Insertion tools
for larger electric power tools are not
designed for the higher speeds of smaller
electric power tools and may break.
Kickback and Related Warnings
Kickback is the sudden reaction to a
pinched or snagged rotating insertion tool,
such as a sanding disc, sanding pad, wire
brush, etc. Pinching or snagging may cause
a rotating insertion tool to stop abruptly.
For example, if an abrasive wheel is
snagged or pinched by the workpiece, the
edge of the wheel that is entering into the
16
LD 18-7 125 R/LD 18-7 150 R
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.
For example, if a sanding disc is snagged
or pinched by the workpiece, the edge of the
sanding disc which is entering the
workpiece may become caught and cause
the sanding disc to break off or kick back.
The sanding disc then moves towards
or away from the operator, depending
on the direction in which the disc is rotating
at the point of pinching. Sanding discs may
also break under these conditions.
A recoil occurs if the electric power tool
is used incorrectly or improperly.
A recoil can be prevented by appropriate
precautions as described below.
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 provi-ded, for
maximum control over kick-back 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 rotating

accessory. Accessory may kickback over
your hand.
Do not position your body in the area

where power tool will move if kickback
occurs. Kickback propels the electric
power tool in the direction opposite to the
movement of the sanding disc at the
point of pinching.
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. This causes a
loss of control or kickback.
Do not attach a saw chain woodcarving

blade or toothed saw blade. Such blades
create frequent kickback and loss of
control.
