k)  Position  the  cord  clear  of  the 

spinning  accessory.  If you lose 

control, the cord may be cut or 

snagged and your hand or arm 

may be pulled into the spinning 

accessory.

l) Never lay the power tool down 

until  the  accessory  has  come 

to  a  complete  stop. The spinning 

accessory may grab the surface 

and pull the power tool out of your 

control.

m) 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.

n)  Regularly  clean  the  power 

tool’s  air  vents.  The  motor’s  fan 

will draw the dust inside the housing 

and excessive accumulation 

of powdered metal may cause 

electrical hazards.

o) Do not operate the power tool 

near flammable materials. Sparks 

could ignite these materials.

p)  Do  not  use  accessories  that 

require  liquid  coolants. Using 

water or other liquid coolants may 

result in electrocution or shock.

Kickback and Related Warnings

Kickback is a sudden reaction to a 

pinched or snagged rotating wheel, 

backing pad, brush or any other 

accessory. Pinching or snagging 

causes rapid stalling of the rotating 

accessory which in turn causes the 

uncontrolled power tool to be forced 

in the direction opposite of the 

accessory’s  rotation  at  the  point  of 

the binding.

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  movement  at  the  point 

of pinching. 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.

a)  Maintain  a  firm  grip  on  the 

power tool and position your body 

and  arm  to  allow  you  to  resist 

kickback  forces.  Always  use 

auxiliary  handle,  if  provided,  for 

maximum  control  over  kickback 

or  torque  reaction  during  start-

up. The operator can control torque 

reactions or kickback forces, if 

proper precautions are taken.

b)  Never  place  your  hand  near 

the rotating accessory. Accessory 

may kickback over your hand.

c) Do not position your body in the
