• Do not use accessories that require liquid coolants. The use
of water or other liquid coolants may cause electric shock or
electric shock.
• Only use the types of discs specified for the power tool and
guards designed for the selected discs. Discs for which the
power tool is not designed may not be adequately protected and
are dangerous.
• The grinding surface of wheels with a centre hole must be
mounted below the plane of the guard edge. An incorrectly
mounted wheel that protrudes beyond the plane of the guard
edge cannot be adequately protected.
• The guard must be securely attached to the power tool and
positioned for maximum safety, so that as little of the disc
surface as possible is exposed towards the operator. The
guard protects the operator from disc fragments, accidental
contact with the disc and sparks that could ignite clothing.
• Discs may only be used for specific applications. For
example: do not grind with the side of a cutting disc. Cutting
abrasive discs are designed for peripheral grinding, and lateral
forces applied to these discs may cause them to fracture.
• Always use undamaged flanges that are the correct size and
shape for the selected disc. Proper disc flanges support the
disc, thereby reducing the risk of breakage. Flanges for cutting
discs may differ from flanges for grinding discs.
• Do not use worn discs intended for larger power tools. A
disc intended for a larger power tool is not suitable for the higher
speed of a smaller tool and may break.
• When using dual-purpose discs, always use a guard that is
suitable for the task at hand. Failure to use the correct guard
may result in it not providing the desired level of protection,
which could lead to serious injury.
• Do not "lock" the cutting disc or apply excessive pressure.
Do not attempt to make cuts that are too deep. Excessive
load on the disc increases its load and susceptibility to twisting
or jamming during cutting, as well as the risk of the disc
rebounding or breaking.
• Do not position your body in line with the rotating blade or
behind it. When the blade moves away from your body during
operation, any kickback may cause the rotating blade and power
tool to be thrown directly towards you.
• If the blade jams or cutting is interrupted for any reason,
switch off the power tool and hold it steady until the blade
comes to a complete stop. Never attempt to remove the
cutting disc from the cutting area while the disc is in motion,
as this may cause kickback. Investigate the cause of the disc
jamming and take action to eliminate it.
• Do not resume cutting in the workpiece. Wait until the blade
reaches full speed and then carefully resume cutting. If you
resume operation of the power tool in the workpiece, the blade
may jam, shift or kick back.
• Support panels or other oversized items to minimise the
risk of blade jamming and kickback. Large items tend to sag
under their own weight. Supports should be placed under the
item near the cutting line and the edges of the item on both sides
of the blade.
• Use extreme caution when making "pocket cuts" in existing
walls or other blind areas. A protruding blade may cut through
gas or water pipes, electrical wiring, or objects that could cause
kickback.
• Do not attempt to make curved cuts. Excessive blade load
increases pressure and susceptibility to blade twisting or
jamming during cutting, and the risk of blade kickback or
breakage, which can result in serious injury.
• Do not allow any loose parts of the polishing cap or its
fastening cords to rotate freely. Tuck away or trim any loose
fastening cords. Loose and rotating fastening cords can wrap
around your fingers or catch on the workpiece.
CAUSES AND PREVENTION OF OPERATOR KICKBACK:
• Kickback is a sudden reaction to jamming or snagging of a
rotating wheel, pad, brush or other accessory. Jamming or
snagging causes the rotating accessory to stop abruptly, which
in turn causes the uncontrolled power tool to be pushed in the
opposite direction of the accessory's rotation at the point of
jamming.
• For example, if a grinding wheel becomes caught or jammed by
the workpiece, the edge of the grinding wheel entering the point
of jamming may dig into the surface of the material, causing the
grinding wheel to jump or be thrown out. The grinding wheel may
rebound towards or away from the operator, depending on the
direction of movement of the grinding wheel at the moment of
jamming. Under such conditions, grinding wheels may also
fracture.
• Kickback is the result of improper use of the power tool and/or
incorrect procedures or working conditions and can be avoided
by taking the appropriate precautions listed below:
➢
Hold the power tool firmly with both hands and
position your body and arms so that you can
counteract the force of kickback. Always use the
auxiliary handle, if the tool has one, to gain
maximum control over kickback or torque
reaction during start-up. The operator can control
torque reactions or kickback forces if the appropriate
precautions are taken.
➢
Never place your hands near rotating
accessories. Kickback may cause the accessory to
rebound towards your hands.
➢
Do not position your body in the area where the
power tool will move in the event of kickback.
Kickback will cause the tool to be thrown in the
opposite direction to the wheel's movement at the
point of contact.
➢
Take particular care when working in corners, on
sharp edges, etc. Avoid bouncing and snagging
the accessory. Corners or sharp edges can cause
the accessory to snag or bounce, resulting in loss of
control or kickback.
➢
Do not fit a wood carving chain blade, a
segmented diamond blade with a circumferential
gap greater than 10 mm, or a toothed blade.
These blades cause frequent kickback and loss of
control.
