If the insertion tool is at risk of
coming into contact with concealed
power cables or the power cord
itself, hold the power tool by the
insulated grip surfaces only.
Contact with a live cable may also cause
metal parts of the appliance to become
live and result in an electric shock.
Keep the power cord away from
rotating insertion tools.
If you lose control of the appliance, the
power cord could be severed or become
caught and your hand or arm may strike
the rotating insertion tool.
Never put down the electric power
tool until the insertion tool has come
to a standstill.
The rotating insertion tool may come into
contact with the support surface,
possibly resulting in you losing control of
the electric power tool.
Never leave the electric power tool
running while you are carrying it.
Your clothing may become caught by
accidental contact with the rotating
insertion tool which may then drill into
your body.
Regularly clean the ventilation slots
on your electric power tool.
The motor fan draws dust into the
housing; a large build-up of metal dust
may cause electrical hazards.
Never use the electric power tool
near combustible materials.
Sparks may ignite these materials.
Never use insertion tools which
require liquid coolants.
The use of water or other liquid coolants
may result in electric 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.
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.
Never place your hand near the
rotating accessory.
Accessory may kickback over your
hand.
Do not position your body in the area
where power tool will move if
kickback occurs.
Kickback will propel the tool in direction
opposite to the wheel's movement at the
point of snagging.
