that is entering into the pinch 

point can dig into the surface of 

the material causing the disc to 

climb out or kick out. The disc 

may either jump toward or away 

from the operator, depending on 

direction of the disc’s movement 

at the point of pinching. Abrasive 

discs 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.

a) 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.

b) Never place your hand near 

the rotating accessory. Accessory 

may kickback over your hand.

c) 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 disc’s movement 

at the point of snagging.

d) use special care when working 

on corners, sharp edges etc. 

Avoid bouncing and snagging the 

accessory. Corners, sharp edges 

or bouncing have a tendency to 

snag the rotating accessory and 

cause loss of control or kickback.

e) Do not attach a saw chain 

woodcarving blade or toothed 

saw blade. Such blades create 

frequent kickback and loss of 

control.

Additional safety instructions 

for grinding and cutting-off 

operations 

safety warnings specific for 

Grinding and Abrasive Cutting-Off 

Operations:

a) use only disc types that are 

recommended for your power tool 

and the specific guard designed 

for the selected disc. Discs for 

which the power tool was not 

designed cannot be adequately 

guarded and are unsafe.

b) the guard must be securely 

attached to the power tool and 

positioned for maximum safety, 

so the least amount of disc is 

exposed towards the operator. The 

guard helps to protect operator 

from broken disc fragments and 

accidental contact with disc.

c) Discs must be used only for 

recommended applications. for 

example: do not grind with the 

side of cut-off disc. Abrasive 

cut-off discs are intended for 

peripheral grinding, side forces 

applied to these discs may cause 

them to shatter.

d) Always use undamaged disc
