e. Do not attach a saw chain woodcarving blade, segmented
diamond wheel with a peripheral gap greater than 10 mm or
toothed saw blade. Such blades create frequent kickback and
loss of control.
f. Do not "jam" the 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
binding of the wheel in the cut and the possibility of kickback or
wheel breakage.
g. 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 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.
h. 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 kick back if the power tool is re-
started in the workpiece.
i. 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.
j. 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.
