b) Take special care when working near
corners, sharp edges, etc. Do not allow the
accessory tool to bounce back from the work-
piece or jam. The rotating accessory tool is
more likely to jam in corners or sharp edges or
if it rebounds off them . This can cause a loss of
control or kickback .
c) Always move the accessory tool into the
material in the same direction in which the
cutting edge leaves the material (in other
words, the same direction in which the dust/
chips are ejected). Guiding the power tool in
the wrong direction will cause the cutting edge
of the accessory tool to jump out of the work-
piece, which can lead to the accessory tool
being pulled in this direction .

Special safety instructions for grinding
a) Use only the grinding accessories approved
for your power tool and only for the recom-
mended applications. For instance, never
grind with the side surface of a cutting disc.
Cutting discs are designed to remove material
with the edge of the disc . Any lateral applica-
tion of force on these grinding tools can cause
them to break .
b) For conical and pencil grinders, use only
undamaged mandrels of the correct size and
length and without an undercut on the
shoulder. Using an appropriate mandrel
re duces the risk of breakages .
