Kickback And Corresponding Safety Instructions - Parkside PWSAP 20-Li D4 Originalbetriebsanleitung

l) Never put the power tool down until the
accessory tool has come to a complete stand-
still. The rotating accessory tool could come
into contact with the surface and cause you to
lose control of the power tool.
m) Do not leave the power tool running whilst
carrying it. Accidental contact between your
clothing and the rotating accessory tool could
lead to an injury (for example, a cut or puncture
wound).
n) Clean the ventilation slits of your power tool
regularly. The motor fan draws dust into the
housing, and a heavy accumulation of metal
dust can cause electrical hazards.
o) Do not use the power tool in the vicinity of
flammable materials. Sparks can ignite these
materials.
p) Do not use any accessory tools that require a
liquid coolant. The use of water or other liquid
coolants may lead to an electric shock.
Kickback and corresponding safety
instructions
A kickback is a sudden reaction caused when a
rotating accessory tool, e.g. grinding disc, grinding
plate, etc., catches or jams. Catching or jamming
leads to an abrupt stop of the rotating accessory
tool. If this happens, an uncontrolled power tool
turns rapidly against the direction of rotation of the
accessory tool caught in the blockage.
If, for example, a grinding disc catches or jams in a
workpiece, the edge of the grinding disc projecting
into the workpiece can get caught and break off
the grinding disc or cause a kickback. The grinding
disc can then fly in the direction of the operator or
away from him, depending on the direction of
rotation of the disc at the blockage. This can also
cause the grinding discs to break.
Kickbacks are caused by improper or incorrect use
of the power tool. This can be avoided by taking
proper precautions as described below.

a) Hold the power tool firmly in both hands and
position your body and arms so they can
absorb the force of the kickback. Always use
the additional handle, if available, so that
you have the maximum possible control over
the kickback force or reaction forces at full
speed. By taking adequate precautions, the
operator can stay in control of the kickback and
reaction forces.
b) Keep your hands clear of a rotating accessory
tool at all times. The accessory tool could move
over your hand in the event of a kickback.
c) Avoid having any part of your body in the
area in which the power tool is likely to move
in the event of a kickback. The kickback will
force the electrical tool in the opposite direction
to the direction of rotation of the grinding disc
at the blockage.
d) Take special care when working near corners,
sharp edges, etc. Do not allow the accessory
tool to bounce back from the workpiece or to
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 a
kickback.
e) Do not use chains or toothed saw blades.
These kinds of accessories often cause a kick-
back or loss of control over the power tool.
