Further Safety Instructions For Abrasive Cutting Applications; Kickback And Corresponding Safety Instructions - Parkside PTS 710 B2 Bedienungs- Und Sicherheitshinweise

Hold the power tool only by the
l)
insulated handles while you are
carrying out work during which
the accessory tool may come into
contact with concealed power
cables or the tool's own power
cord. Contact with a live cable can also
make metal parts of the appliance live and
could result in an electric shock.
m) Keep the power cord away from
any rotating accessories. If you lose
control of the appliance, the cord may get
cut or caught and your hand or arm could
get caught in the rotating accessory tool.
Never put the power tool down
n)
until the accessory tool has come
to a complete standstill. The rotating
accessory tool could come into contact with
the surface and cause you to lose control of
the power tool.
Do not leave the power tool running
o)
whilst carrying it. Accidental contact
between your clothing and the rotating
accessory tool could cause your clothing
to get caught and the accessory tool to
penetrate a part of your body.
Clean the ventilation slits of your
p)
power tool regularly. The engine fan
draws dust into the housing and a strong
accumulation of metal dust can cause
electrical hazards.
Do not use the power tool in the
q)
vicinity of flammable materials.
Sparks can ignite such materials.
Do not use any accessory tools
r)
which require liquid coolant. The use
of water or other liquid coolants may lead to
an electric shock.

Kickback and corresponding safety
instructions
Kickback is a sudden reaction caused when a
rotating grinding disc catches or jams. Catching
or jamming causes the rotating accessory tool to
stop abruptly.
If this happens, an uncontrolled power tool turns
rapidly against the direction of rotation of the
accessory tool caught in the blockage.
If, for example, a grinding disc catches or jams,
the edge of the grinding disc that is projecting into
the workpiece can get caught and break off the
grinding disc or cause a kickback. The grinding
disc can then fly in the direction of the operator
or away from him, depending on the direction of
rotation of the disc at the blockage. This can also
break grinding discs.
A kickback is caused by improper or incorrect use
of the power tool. This can be avoided by taking
proper precautions as given below.
Hold the power tool firmly in both
a)
hands and position your body and
arms so they can absorb the force
of a kickback. Always use the auxiliary
handle, if available, so that you have the
maximum possible control over the kickback
force or reaction forces at full speed. By
taking adequate precautions, the operator
can stay in control of the kickback and
reaction forces.
Never hold your hand close to a
b)
rotating accessory tool. The accessory
tool could jump out of your hand if there is a
kickback.
