Do not operate the power tool near
flammable materials. Do not operate the
power tool while placed on a combustible
surface such as wood. Sparks could ignite
these materials.
Do not use accessories that require liquid
coolants. Using water or other liquid
coolants may result in electrocution or shock.
Leave protective covers mounted. Protective
covers must be in working order and
properly installed. Loose, damaged or
improperly functioning protective covers must
be repaired or replaced.
Kickback and related warnings
Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched
or snagged rotating wheel. Pinching or
snagging causes rapid stalling of the rotating
wheel which in turn causes the uncontrolled
cutting unit to be forced upwards toward the
operator.
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. Abrasive wheels may also break
under these conditions.
Kickback is the result of power tool misuse
and/or incorrect operating procedures or
conditions and can be avoided by taking
proper precautions as given below.
Maintain a firm grip on the power tool and
position your body and arm to allow you
to resist kickback forces. The operator can
control upward kickback forces, if proper
precautions are taken.
Do not position your body in line with the
rotating wheel. If kickback occurs, it will
propel the cutting unit upwards toward the
operator.
Do not attach a saw chain, woodcarving
blade, segmented diamond wheel with
a peripheral gap greater than 10 mm or
toothed saw blade. Such blades create
frequent kickback and loss of control.
Do not "jam" the 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.
When the wheel is binding or when
interrupting a cut for any reason, switch
off the power tool and hold the cutting
unit motionless until the wheel comes to a
complete stop. Never attempt to remove
the 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 re-enter the cut. The wheel may
bind, walk up or kickback if the power tool is
restarted in the workpiece.
Support any oversized workpiece to
minimize the risk of wheel pinching and
kickback. Large workpieces tend to sag
under their own weight. Supports must be
placed under the workpiece near the line of
cut and near the edge of the workpiece on
both sides of the wheel.
To avoid danger to life from
electric shock!
Ensure that the mains lead does not enter the
working area of the disc or lie within range
of flying sparks.
Always keep the angle grinder's mains lead
in place using the clip
Always pull your angle grinder's mains plug
out of the mains socket before you carry out
any cleaning or adjustment of your product.
