Do not attach a saw chain woodcarving blade or toothed saw blade.
Such blades create frequent kickback and loss of control over the power
tool.
Additional safety instructions for grinding and cutting off operations
Use only wheel types that are recommended for your power tool and
the specific guard designed for the selected wheel. Wheels for which
the power tool was not designed cannot be adequately guarded and are
unsafe.
The guard must be securely attached to the power tool and positioned
for maximum safety, so the least amount of wheel is exposed towards
the operator. The guard helps to protect operator from broken wheel
fragments and accidental contact with wheel.
Wheels must be used only for recommended applications. For
example: do not grind with the side of the cut-off wheel. Abrasive cut-
off wheels are intended for peripheral grinding; side forces applied to these
wheels may cause them to shatter.
Always use undamaged wheel flanges that are of correct size and
shape for your selected wheel. Proper wheel flanges support the wheel
thus reducing the possibility of wheel breakage. Flanges for cut-off wheels
may be different from grinding wheel flanges.
Do not use worn down wheels from larger power tools. Wheels
intended for larger power tools are not suitable for the higher speed of a
smaller tool and may burst.
Additional safety warnings specific for abrasive cutting off operations
Do not "jam" the cut-off wheel or apply excessive pressure. Do not
attempt to make an excessive depth of cut. Overstressing the wheel
increases the loading and susceptibility to twisting or binding of the wheel in
the cut and the possibility of kickback or wheel breakage.
Do not position your body in line with and behind the rotating wheel.
When the wheel, at the point of operation, is moving away from your body,
the possible kickback may propel the spinning wheel and the power tool
directly at you.
When wheel is binding or when interrupting a cut for any reason,
switch off the power tool and hold the power tool motionless until the
wheel comes to a complete stop. Never attempt to remove the cut-off
wheel from the cut while the wheel is in motion otherwise kickback
may occur. Investigate and take corrective action to eliminate the cause of
wheel binding.
Do not restart the cutting operation in the workpiece. Let the wheel
reach full speed and carefully reenter the cut. The wheel may bind, walk
up or kickback if the power tool is restarted in the workpiece.
Support panels or any oversized workpiece to minimize the risk of
heel pinching and kickback. Large workpieces tend to sag under their
20
