4. 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.
Do not attach a saw chain woodcarving blade,
5.
segmented diamond wheel with a peripheral
gap greater than 10 mm or toothed saw blade.
Such blades create frequent kickback and loss of
control.
Safety warnings specific for grinding and cut-
ting-off operations:
1. Use only wheel types that are specified
for your power tool and the specific guard
designed for the selected wheel. Wheels for
which the power tool was not designed cannot be
adequately guarded and are unsafe.
2. The grinding surface of centre depressed
wheels must be mounted below the plane of
the guard lip. An improperly mounted wheel that
projects through the plane of the guard lip cannot
be adequately protected.
The guard must be securely attached to the
3.
power tool and positioned for maximum safety,
so the least amount of wheel is exposed
towards the operator. The guard helps to protect
the operator from broken wheel fragments, acci-
dental contact with wheel and sparks that could
ignite clothing.
4. Wheels must be used only for specified appli-
cations. For example: do not grind with the
side of cut-off wheel. Abrasive cut-off wheels
are intended for peripheral grinding, side forces
applied to these wheels may cause them to
shatter.
Always use undamaged wheel flanges that are
5.
of correct size and shape for your selected
wheel. Proper wheel flanges support the wheel
thus reducing the possibility of wheel breakage.
Flanges for cut-off wheels may be different from
grinding wheel flanges.
6. Do not use worn down wheels from larger
power tools. A wheel intended for larger power
tool is not suitable for the higher speed of a
smaller tool and may burst.
7. When using dual purpose wheels always use
the correct guard for the application being
performed. Failure to use the correct guard may
not provide the desired level of guarding, which
could lead to serious injury.
Additional safety warnings specific for cutting-off
operations:
Do not "jam" the cut-off wheel or apply exces-
1.
sive 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 possibil-
ity of kickback or wheel breakage.
2. 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 spin-
ning wheel and the power tool directly at you.
3. When the wheel is binding or when interrupt-
ing a cut for any reason, switch off the power
tool and hold it 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 take corrective action to
eliminate the cause of wheel binding.
4. 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.
5. Support panels or any oversized workpiece to
minimize the risk of wheel pinching and kick-
back. 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.
Use extra caution when making a "pocket cut"
6.
into existing walls or other blind areas. The
protruding wheel may cut gas or water pipes, elec-
trical wiring or objects that can cause kickback.
Do not attempt to do curved cutting.
7.
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, which can lead to serious injury.
8. Before using a segmented diamond wheel,
make sure that the diamond wheel has the
peripheral gap between segments of 10 mm or
less, only with a negative rake angle.
Additional Safety Warnings:
1. When using depressed centre grinding wheels,
be sure to use only fiberglass-reinforced
wheels.
2. NEVER USE Stone Cup type wheels with this
grinder. This grinder is not designed for these
types of wheels and the use of such a product
may result in serious personal injury.
3. Be careful not to damage the spindle, the
flange (especially the installing surface) or the
lock nut. Damage to these parts could result in
wheel breakage.
4. Make sure the wheel is not contacting the
workpiece before the switch is turned on.
5. Before using the tool on an actual workpiece,
let it run for a while. Watch for vibration or
wobbling that could indicate poor installation
or a poorly balanced wheel.
6. Use the specified surface of the wheel to per-
form the grinding.
7. Do not leave the tool running. Operate the tool
only when hand-held.
8. Do not touch the workpiece immediately after
operation; it may be extremely hot and could
burn your skin.
9. Do not touch accessories immediately after
operation; it may be extremely hot and could
burn your skin.
10. Observe the instructions of the manufacturer
for correct mounting and use of wheels.
Handle and store wheels with care.
