KICKBACK PRECAUTIONS
Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched or snagged cutting
accessory caught on the material. The material can be ejected
and inflict a serious injury on the user or a bystander. Kickback
can also damage the tool or workpiece.
Kickback can be avoided by taking proper precautions:
1. Maintain a firm grip on the material and position your body
and arms to allow you to resist a kickback. Kickback can
propel the material in the direction of the cutting
accessory’s rotation.
1.1 Position the workpiece so the sanding belt is pulling
the workpiece away from you, against the work table or
work guard.
2.1 The sanding disc rotates counter clockwise. Only sand
on the left side of the wheel as the downward force will
help to maintain control of the workpiece. Using the
right side may flip the workpiece upward and cause an
injury if control is lost.
2. Use special care when working on corners, sharp edges or
flexible material. These workpieces have a tendency to
snag the cutting accessory.
3. Only use cutting accessories designed for the tool.
VIBRATION PRECAUTIONS
1. This tool vibrates during use. Repeated or long-term
exposure to vibration may cause temporary or permanent
physical injury, particularly to the hands, arms and
shoulders.
2. Anyone using vibrating tools regularly or for an extended
period should first be examined by a doctor and then have
regular medical check-ups to ensure medical problems are
not being caused by or worsened from tool use.
