Kickback And Related Warnings - Würth EWS 10-115 COMPACT Originalbetriebsanleitung

Position the cord clear of the spinning
k)
accessory.
If you lose control over the device, the mains lead
may be severed or caught up and may pull your
hand or arm into the rotating attachment.
Never lay the power tool down until
l)
the accessory has come to a complete
stop. The spinning accessory may catch the sur-
face and pull the power tool out of your control.
Do not run the power tool while carry-
m)
ing 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
n)
vents. The motor fan draws dust into the hous-
ing, and a heavy accumulation of metal dust may
pose electric hazards.
Do not operate the power tool near
o)
flammable materials. Sparks could ignite
these materials.
Do not use accessories that require
p)
liquid coolants. Using water or other liquid
coolants may result in electrocution or shock.

Kickback and Related Warnings

Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched or
snagged rotating wheel, backing pad, brush or
any other accessory. Pinching or snagging causes
rapid stalling of the rotating accessory which in turn
causes the uncontrolled power tool to be forced in
the direction opposite of the accessory's rotation at
the point of the binding. For example, if an abrasive
wheel is snagged or pinched by the workpiece, the
edge of the wheel that is entering into the pinch
point can dig into the surface of the material caus-
ing 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. Kickback is the result
of power tool misuse and/or incorrect operating
procedures or conditions. It can be avoided by
taking proper precautions as given below.
Special safety instructions
a)
tool and position your body and arm
to allow you to resist kickback forces.
Always use auxiliary handle, if provid-
ed, for maximum control over kickback
or torque reaction during start-up. The
operator can control torque reactions or kickback
forces, if proper precautions are taken.
b)
ing accessory. The accessory may kickback
over your hand.
Do not position your body in the area
c)
where power tool will move if kickback
occurs. Kickback will propel the power tool in
the opposite direction of the accessory's move-
ment at the point of jamming.
d)
sharp edges etc. Avoid bouncing and
snagging the accessory. The rotating attach-
ment tends to jam at corners or sharp edges or
if it rebounds from the workpiece. This causes a
loss of control or recoil.
e)
ing blade or toothed saw blade. Such
attachments frequently cause a recoil or the loss
of control over the electric tool.
Special safety precautions for grind-
ing and abrasive cut-off operations:
a)
approved for your electric tool and the
safety hoods intended for these grinding
wheels. Grinding wheels that are not approved
for the electric tool cannot be adequately shield-
ed and are unsafe.
b)
tached so that the grinding surface is
located beneath the safety hood. An
incorrectly attached grinding wheel protruding
over the edge of the safety hood cannot be
shielded adequately.
Maintain a firm grip on the power
