FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION

• 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 accessory.

• Never lay the power tool down until the ac-

cessory has come to a complete stop. The

spinning accessory 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

accessory into your body.

• Regularly clean the power tool’s air vents. The

motor’s fan will draw the dust inside the housing

and excessive accumulation of powdered metal

may cause electrical hazards.

• Do not operate the power tool near ﬂ ammable

materials. Sparks could ignite these materials.

• Do not use accessories that require liquid

coolants. Using water or other liquid coolants

may result in electrocution or shock.

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 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

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 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 ﬁ rm 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 kick-

back forces, if proper precautions are taken.

• Never place your hand near the rotating acces-

sory. Accessory may kick back over your hand.

• Do not position your body in the area where

power tool will move if kickback occurs. 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

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 saw chain woodcarving blade

or toothed saw blade. Such blades create fre-

quent kickback and loss of control.

Safety Warnings Specific for Die Grinding

Operations:

• Wheels must be used only for recommended

applications. For example: do not grind with the

side of cut-off wheel. Abrasive cut-off wheels are

intended for peripheral grinding, side forces applied

to these wheels may cause them to shatter.

• Always use undamaged wheel ﬂ anges that are

of correct size and shape for your selected

wheel. Proper wheel ﬂ anges support the wheel

thus reducing the possibility of wheel breakage.

Flanges for cut-off wheels may be different from

grinding wheel ﬂ anges.

• Do not use worn down wheels from larger

power tools. Wheel intended for larger power

tool is not suitable for the higher speed of a

smaller tool and may burst.

Additional Safety Warnings Speciﬁ c for Abra-

sive Cutting-Off Operations:

• Do not jam the cut-off wheel or apply exces-

sive pressure. Do not attempt to make an

excessive depth of cut. Overstressing the

wheel increases the loading and susceptibility to

twisting or binding of the wheel in the cut and the

possibility of kickback or wheel breakage.

• Do not position your body in line with and

behind the rotating wheel. When the wheel, at

the point of operation, is moving away from your

body, the possible kickback may propel the spin-

ning wheel and the power tool directly at you.

• When wheel is binding 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 binding.

• Do not restart the cutting operation in the

workpiece. Let the wheel reach full speed and

carefully reenter 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 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 “pocketcut”

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.

Additional Safety Warnings

• Maintain labels and nameplates. These carry

important information. If unreadable or missing,

contact a MILWAUKEE service facility for a free

replacement.

• WARNING: Some dust created by power sand-

ing, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construc-

tion activities contains chemicals known to cause

cancer, birth defects or other reproductive 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 ﬁ lter out microscopic particles.
