where the cutting accessory may contact hid-
den wiring or its own cord. Cutting accessory con-
tacting a “live” wire may make exposed metal parts
of the power tool “live” and could give the operator
an electric shock.
Position the cord clear of the spinning acces-
sory. If you lose control, the cord may be cut or
snagged and your hand or arm may be pulled into
the spinning wheel.
Never lay the power tool down until the acces-
sory has come to a complete stop. The spinning
wheel may grab the surface and pull the power tool
out of your control.
Do not run the power tool while carrying it at
your side. Accidental contact with the spinning
accessory could snag your clothing, pulling the ac-
cessory into your body.
Regularly clean the power tool’s air vents. The

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 caus-
es 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 enter-
ing 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 pinch-
ing. Abrasive wheels may also break under these
conditions. Kickback is the result of power tool
conditions and can be avoided by taking proper
precautions as given below.

or torque reaction during start-up. The opera-
tor can control torque reactions or kickback forces,
if proper precautions are taken.
Never place your hand near the rotating acces-
sory. Accessory may kickback over your hand.
Kick-
back will propel the tool in direction opposite to
the wheel’s movement at the point of snagging.
Use special care when working corners, sharp
accessory. Corners, sharp edges or bouncing have
a tendency to snag the rotating accessory and
cause loss of control or kickback.
Such blades create fre-
quent kickback and loss of control.
