Safety notices specific to the device
where it seized. This can also result in grinding discs
breaking.
Kickback is the result of misuse or incorrect use of
the power tool. It can be avoided by taking the
precautions described below.
a) Maintain a firm grip on the power tool
and position your body and arms to
allow you to brace yourself against
the force of kickback. Always use the
additional handle, if applicable, to
maintain the greatest possible control
over the force of kickback or moment
of reaction whilst running up. The oper-
ator can control kickback and reactive forces
through suitable precautions.
b) Never move your hands near rotating
tools. The tool can move across your hand
during kickback.
c) Avoid the area in front of and behind
the rotating cut-off wheel. Kickback will
move the power tool in the direction opposite the
rotation of the grinding disc where it is seized.
d) Proceed with particular care near cor-
ners, sharp edges, etc. Prevent the tool
from rebounding off the work piece and
jamming. The rotating tool has a tendency
to jam with corner, sharp edges or if it rebounds.
This causes a loss of control or kickback.
e) Do not use chain- or toothed saw blades
or segmented diamond discs with
grooves more than 10 mm wide. These
tools will cause kickback or loss of control over
the power tool.
f) Avoid the cut-off disc seizing or apply-
ing excessive contact pressure. Do not
make overly deep cuts. Overloading the
cut-off wheel will increase stress on the disc and
the tendency to twist or seize, thus the potential
of kickback or the abrasive wheel breaking.
g) If the cut-off wheel seizes or you sus-
pend work, switch off the device and
hold it still until the disc stops. Never
attempt to withdraw the running cut-
off wheel from the cut, as this may re-
sult in kickback. Determine and correct the
cause for the jam.

h) Do not restart the power tool so long
as it is in the work piece. Allow the
cut-off wheel to reach its maximum
speed before you carefully continue
cutting. The disc may otherwise get caught,
jump out of the work piece, or kick back.
i) Support boards or large work pieces
to minimise the risk of kickback due
to a jammed cut-off wheel. Large work
pieces can bend under their own weight. The
work piece must be supported at both sides of
the disc, both near the cut and near the edge.
Be particularly careful when making
j)
"Pocket cuts" into existing walls or
other areas which cannot be inspected.
The plunging cut-off wheel can cause kickback
when cutting gas or electrical lines, water pipes
or other objects.
