Kickback And Related Warnings - jcb 18AG Instructions D'utilisation

Wear personal protective equipment.
m
Depending on application, use
face shield, safety goggles or safety
glasses. As appropriate, wear dust
mask, hearing protectors, gloves
and workshop apron capable of
stopping small abrasive or workpiece
fragments. The eye protection must be
capable of stopping flying debris generated
by various operations . The dust mask
or respirator must be capable of filtrating
particles generated by your operation.
Prolonged exposure to high intensity noise
may cause hearing loss.
Keep bystanders a safe distance away
m
from work area. Anyone entering
the work area must wear personal
protective equipment. Fragments of
workpiece or of a broken accessory may fly
away and cause injury beyond immediate
area of operation.
Hold the power tool by insulated
m
gripping surfaces only, when
performing an operation where the
cutting tool may contact hidden
wiring. Contact with a "live" wire will also
make exposed metal parts of the power
tool "live" and could give the operator an
electric shock.
Never lay the power tool down until
m
the accessory 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
m
carrying it at your side. Accidental
contact with the spinning accessory could
snag your clothing, pulling the accessory into
your body.
8
Regularly clean the power tool's
m
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
m
flammable materials. Sparks could ignite
these materials.
Do not use accessories that require
m
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
m
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
m
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.
