• Wear personal protective equipment. Depending on how you use the machine; use
a visor/face protection or safety glasses. If necessary use a mask, ear protection,
gloves, and apron/work clothing to protect you from small shards of metal or
splinters from the work object. The eye protection you use must be able to
protect against flying debris produced in different working positions. The breathing
protection should be able to filter any particles produced by the work. Prolonged
exposure to high levels of noise can result in hearing damage.
• Keep children at a safe distance from the work area. Everyone who visits the place
of work must wear personal protective equipment. Debris from the workpiece or
from a damaged accessory can fly off and injury people outside of the immediate
work area.
• Only hold the power tool by its isolated gripping surfaces when working in
positions where the cut-off wheel might possibly cut through hidden cables or its
own mains lead. Cut-off wheels which come in contact with an electric cable can
electrify metal parts of the power tool and subject the user to an electric shock.
• Position the mains lead well away from the rotating accessory. If you lose control,
the lead can be sliced through or become entangled and pull your hand or arm
into the rotating accessory.
• Never put the power tool down before the accessory has stopped completely.
The rotating accessory can become stuck in the material resulting in loss of control.
• Do not run the power tool when you are carrying it. Unintentional contact with
the rotating accessory can cause clothing to become caught and pull the tool
towards your body.
• Regularly clean the motor's ventilation ports. The motor's fan pulls in dust, which
gets inside the outer casing and a build up of this collected metal dust can lead to
electrical dangers.
• Do not use the power tool near flammable material. Sparks can easily ignite
flammable material.
• Do not use accessories, which require liquid coolants. The use of water or other
liquid coolants can result in electric shocks or electrocution.
Kickback and related warnings
A kickback is a sudden counteraction to a jammed or stuck disc, backing plate, brush,
or some other accessory. A jammed or stuck rotating accessory results in the power
tool thrusting violently in the opposite direction of the accessory's rotation at the point
of binding.
For example, if a grinding wheel gets stuck or is jammed into the workpiece, the edge
of the grinding wheel can grab onto the workpiece and either dig itself down deeper
or kick upwards. The grinding wheel is either thrown towards or away from the user
depending on the rotation of the grinding wheel. The grinding wheel can also break
under these circumstances.
Kickbacks are the result of the power tool being used in an incorrect manner, on
incorrect objects, or under incorrect conditions and can be avoided by observing
the following precautions.
