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. 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. The operator can control kickback forces, if proper precautions are taken. ·Use special care when working 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. ·Do not attach a toothed saw blade. Such blades create frequent kickback and loss of control. ·Always feed the bit into the material in the same direction as the cutting edge is exiting from the material (which is the same direction as the chips are thrown). Feeding the tool in the wrong direction causes the cutting edge of the bit to climb out of the work and pull the tool in the direction of this feed. ·When using rotary files, cut-off wheels, highspeed cutters or tungsten carbide cutters, always have the work securely clamped. These wheels will grab if they become slightly canted in the groove, and can kickback. When a cut-off wheel grabs, the wheel itself usually breaks. When the rotary file, high-speed cutters or tungsten carbide cutter grabs, it may jump from the groove and you could lose control of the tool. Safety Warnings Specific for Grinding and Abrasive Cutting-Off Operations: ·Use only wheel types that are recommended for your power tool and only for recommended applications. For example: do not grind with the side of a cut-off wheel. Abrasive cut-off wheels are intended for peripheral grinding, side forces applied to these wheels may cause them to shatter. ·For threaded abrasive cones and plugs use only undamaged wheel mandrels with an unrelieved shoulder flange that are of correct size and length. Proper mandrels will reduce the possibility of breakage. ·Do not "jam" a cut-off wheel or apply excessive pressure. Do not attempt to make an excessive depth of cut. Overstressing the wheel increases the loading and susceptibility to twisting or snagging of the wheel in the cut and the possibility of kickback or wheel breakage. ·Do not position your hand in line with and behind the rotating wheel. When the wheel, at the point of operation, is moving away from your hand, the possible kickback may propel the spinning wheel and the power tool directly at you. ·When wheel is pinched, snagged or when in- terrupting 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 binding. ·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 minimise the risk of wheel pinching and kick- back. 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 pro- truding wheel may cut gas or water pipes, electrical wiring or objects that can cause kickback. Safety Warnings Specific for Wire Brushing Operations: ·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 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 frag- ments may be discharged at high velocity during the use of these brushes and may become imbedded in your skin. Additional Safety Warnings ·Maintain labels and nameplates. These carry important information. If unreadable or missing, contact a 0,/:$8.( ( service facility for a replacement. · WARNING Some dust created by ing, sawing, grinding, power sanddrilling, and other construction activities contains chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects or other repro- ductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are: ·lead from lead-based paint ·crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, and ·arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber. Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are spe- cially designed to filter out microscopic particles. 4 ADDITIONAL BATTERY SAFETY RULES WARNING To reduce injury, and the risk product of fire, personal damage due to a short circuit, never immerse your tool, battery pack or charger in fluid or allow a fluid to flow inside them. Corrosive or conductive fluids, such as seawater, certain industrial chemicals, and bleach or bleach-containing products, etc., can cause a short circuit.

Installing Collets The collet must be attached to the collet nut before installing the collet asembly to the tool. Be sure that the collet size matches the size of the mandrel you will use, otherwise the collet may break. 1. To assemble, place collet on an even surface, and place the nut over the collet. 2. Press down on the nut to snap the nut and collet together. 3. To disassemble, use a rod to push the collet out of the nut. 5 Installing Accessories 1. Remove dust and debris from the collet body before inserting accessory. 2. Insert the collet with the collet nut attached into the collet body. Thread the collet nut onto the spindle but do not tighten it yet. 3. Clean the accessory mandrel, then insert it a minimum of 25 mm (1") into the collet. The mandrel will overhang the collet and the acces- sory about 13 mm (1/2").

Follow manufacturer's care and use instructions. General Operation 1. If you have just installed an accessory or are beginning a period of work, test it by letting it spin for one minute before applying it to the workpiece. WARNING Never use an accessory that has been dropped. Out-of-balance or damaged accessories can mar workpiece, damage the tool, and cause stress that may cause accessory failure. 2. Use a clamp, vise or other practical means to hold your work, freeing both hands to control the tool. 3. WARNING Hold tool securely hands. Start the tool. with both 4. To start the tool, grasp the handle the switch to ON. WARNING To reduce the risk of injury, always securely tighten the collet to the grinders and clean mandrels before inserting them into the collet. Otherwise the high-speed rotation of the tool could force the accessory to Installing/Removing/Cleaning the Dust Screen Using the dust screen will increase the performance and extend the life of the tool. 1.

To clean the dust screen, tap against a hard sur- face, or blow clean with compressed air. 5. Allow accessory to come to full speed before beginning work. 6. Control pressure and surface contact between accessory and workpiece. WARNING Never bang accessories onto work. Too much pressure causes accessory failure or slows speed. 7. To stop the tool, release the switch. Make sure the tool comes to a complete stop before laying the tool down. 8. To lock-on the switch, slide the switch to ON and press down on the front of the switch. To stop the tool, press and release the switch. Make sure the tool comes to a complete stop before laying down the tool. 6 MAINTENANCE WARNING To reduce the risk of injury, always unplug the charger and remove the battery pack from the charger or tool before performing any maintenance.
