carefully re-enter the cut. The wheel may bind, walk up
or kickback if the power tool is restarted in theworkpiece.
e ) Support panels or 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 thewheel.
f ) 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 causekickback.
Additional Safety Instructions for Sanding
Operations
a ) Do not use excessively oversized sanding disc
paper. Follow manufacturer’s recommendations,
when selecting sanding paper. Larger sanding paper
extending beyond the sanding pad presents a laceration
hazard and may cause snagging, tearing of the disc
orkickback.
Additional Safety Instructions for Wire
Brushing Operations
a ) Be aware that wire bristles are thrown by the brush
even during ordinary operation. Do not overstress
the wires by applying excessive load to the brush.
The wire bristles can easily penetrate llight clothing and/
orskin.
b ) If the use of a guard is recommended for wire
brushing, do not allow any interference of the
wire wheel or brush with the guard. Wire wheel
or brush may expand in diameter due to work and
centrifugalforces.
Additional Safety Rules for Grinders
a ) Do not use Type 11 (flaring cup) wheels on this tool.
Using inappropriate accessories can result ininjury.
b ) Always use side handle. Tighten the handle securely.
The side handle should always be used to maintain control
of the tool at alltimes.
