Additional safety instructions
for grinding and cutting-off op-
erations
Safety warnings specific for grinding and
abrasive cutting-off operations:
a) Use only wheel types that are recom-
mended for your power tool and only
for recommended applications.
For example: do not grind with the
side of a cut-off wheel. Abrasive cut-off
wheels are intended for peripheral grinding,
side forces applied to these wheels may cause
them to shatter.
b) For threaded abrasive cones and plugs
use only undamaged wheel mandrels
with an unrelieved shoulder flange that
are of correct size and length. Proper man-
drels will reduce the possibility of breakage.
c) Do not "jam" a cut-off wheel or apply
excessive pressure. Do not attempt to
make an excessive depth of cut. Over-
stressing the wheel increases the loading and
susceptibility to twisting or snagging of the wheel
in the cut and the possibility of kickback or wheel
breakage.
d) Do not position your hand in line with
and behind the rotating wheel. When
the wheel, at the point of operation, is moving
away from your hand, the possible kickback may
propel the spinning wheel and the power tool
directly at you.
e) When wheel is pinched, snagged 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 other-
wise kickback may occur. Investigate and
take corrective action to eliminate the cause of
wheel pinching or snagging.
f) 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.
General power tool safety warnings
g) Support panels or any oversized work-
piece 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.
h) Use extra caution when making a
"pocket cut" into existing walls or
other blind areas. The protruding wheel
may cut gas or water pipes, electrical wiring
or objects that can cause kickback.
Additional safety instructions
for wire brushing operations
Safety warnings specific for wire brushing
operations:
a) Be aware that wire bristles are thrown
by the brush even during ordinary op-
eration. Do not overstress the wires
by applying excessive load to the brush.
The wire bristles can easily penetrate light cloth-
ing and / or skin.
b) Allow brushes to run at operating speed
for at least one minute before using
them. During this time no one is to stand
in front or in line with the brush. Loose
bristles or wires will be discharged during the
run-in time.
c) Direct the discharge of the spinning wire
brush away from you. Small particles and
tiny wire fragments may be discharged at high
velocity during the use of these brushes and
may become imbedded in your skin.
Safety notices specific to
rotary tools
When you use the drill / grinder wear the fol-
lowing protective equipment: safety glasses and
protective gloves.
CAUTION! RISK OF INJURY! The tool
continues to rotate after it has been switched
off! Avoid contact with rapidly rotating drill /
grinder components.
