i) Keep bystanders a safe distance away from
work area. Anyone entering the work area
must wear personal protective equipment.
Fragments of workpiece or of a broken accessory
may fly away and cause injury beyond immediate
area of operation.
Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfac-
j)
es only, when performing an operation where
the cutting accessory may contact hidden wir-
ing or its own cord. Contact with a live power line
can also electrify metal device parts and lead to
an electric shock.
Always hold the electric tool firmly when start-
k)
ing it. When running up to full speed, the reaction
torque of the motor can cause the electric tool to
turn.
l) If possible, use clamps to hold the workpiece
in place. Never hold a small workpiece in one
hand and the electric tool in the other while
using it. By clamping small workpieces, you have
both hands free for better control of the electric
tool. When cutting round workpieces such as
wooden dowels, bar stock or pipes, they tend to
roll away, causing the tool attachment to jam and
be flung towards you.
m) Keep the power cable away from rotating tool
attachments. If you lose control of the device, the
cable can be severed or caught and your hand or
arm pulled into the rotating tool attachment.
Never lay the power tool down until the acces-
n)
sory has come to a complete stop. The spinning
accessory may grab the surface and pull the pow-
er tool out of your control.
o) After changing tool attachments or adjust-
ments to the device, tighten the collet nut,
clamping chuck or other fasteners securely.
Loose fasteners can shift unexpectedly and cause
loss of control; unattached rotating components
will be thrown out violently.
p) Do not run the power tool while carrying 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 vents. The
q)
motor's fan will draw the dust inside the housing
and excessive accumulation of powdered metal
may cause electrical hazards.
r) Do not operate the power tool near flammable
materials. Sparks could ignite these materials.

s) Do not use accessories that require liquid
coolants. Using water or other liquid coolants may
result in electrocution or shock.

Kick-back and corresponding safety instructions
Kick-back is the sudden reaction resulting from a
caught or jammed rotating tool attachment, such as a
grinding disc, grinding belt, wire brush, etc. Catching
or jamming results in the rotating tool attachment stop-
ping abruptly. As a result, an uncontrolled electric tool
is accelerated against the direction of rotation of the
tool attachment.
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 causing 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 move-
ment at the point of pinching. Abrasive wheels may
also break under these conditions.
Kickback is the result of incorrect or deficient use of the
electrical tool. It can be prevented by suitable precau-
tionary measures, as described in the following.
a) Maintain a firm grip on the power tool and po-
sition your body and arm to allow you to resist
kickback forces. The operator can control the
kick-back forces by taking appropriate precaution-
ary measures.
b) Use special care when working corners, sharp
edges etc. Avoid bouncing and snagging the
accessory. The rotating tool attachment tends to
jam at corners, sharp edges or when it bounces
back. This causes a loss of control or kick-back.
c) Do not use a serrated saw blade. Such blades
create frequent kickback and loss of control.
Always guide the tool attachment into the ma-
d)
terial in the same direction in which the cutting
edge leaves the material (corresponds to the
same direction in which the chips are ejected).
Guiding the electric tool in the wrong direction
causes the cutting edge of the tool attachment to
break out of the workpiece, pulling the electric tool
in that feed direction.
e) Always clamp the workpiece firmly when us-
ing rotary files, cutting wheels, high-speed
milling tools or carbide milling tools. Even
with slight canting in the groove, these tool at-
tachments get caught and can cause a kick-back.
If a cutting wheel gets caught, it usually breaks.
