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, high-speed
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 a rotary
file, high-speed cutter or tungsten carbide cutter grabs, it may
jump from the groove and you could lose control of the tool.
Safety warnings specifi c 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
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 kickback.
Safety warnings specifi c 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 fragments may
be discharged at high velocity during the use of these
brushes and may become imbedded in your skin.
ADDITIONAL SAFETY WARNINGS
■ Inspect for and remove all nails from the workpiece
before using the product. Following this rule will
reduce the risk of serious personal injury.
■ Do not reach in the area of the spinning bit. The proximity
of the spinning bit to your hand may not always be obvious.
■ The product is not intended for use as a dental drill
or in human or veterinary medical applications.
Serious injury may result.
■ Do not grind or sand heat flammable materials.
Sparks from the wheel could ignite these materials.
■ Do not bend the flex shaft with a radius less than 127 mm.
The risk of overheating will increase substantially.
■ Clamp workpiece with a clamping device. Unclamped
workpieces can cause severe injury and damage.
■ Injuries may be caused, or aggravated, by prolonged
use of a tool. When using any tool for prolonged periods,
ensure you take regular breaks.
■ Ambient temperature range for tool during operation is
between 0°C and 40°C.
■ Ambient temperature range for tool storage is between
0°C and 40°C.
■ The recommended ambient temperature range for the
charging system during charging is between 10°C and 38°C.
ADDITIONAL BATTERY SAFETY WARNINGS
■ To reduce the risk of fire, personal injury, and product
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.
■ Ambient temperature range for battery during use is
between 0°C and 40°C.
■ Ambient temperature range for battery storage is
between 0°C and 20°C.
TRANSPORTING LITHIUM BATTERIES
Transport the battery in accordance with local and national
provisions and regulations.
Follow all special requirements on packaging and labelling
when transporting batteries by a third party. Ensure that
no batteries can come in contact with other batteries
or conductive materials while in transport by protecting
exposed connectors with insulating, non-conductive caps or
tape. Do not transport batteries that are cracked or leaking.
Check with the forwarding company for further advice.
