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 otherwise kickback may occur.
Investigate and take corrective action to eliminate the cause of
wheel pinching or snagging.
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.
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 the wheel.
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 kick-
back.
Safety warnings specific for wire brushing
operations:
Be aware that wire bristles are thrown by the brush even dur-
ing ordinary operation. Do not overstress the wires by apply-
ing excessive load to the brush. The wire bristles can easily
penetrate light clothing and/or skin.
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.
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.
