Kickback and related warnings
 Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched or hung rotary fitting (or other accessory). Pinching or
catching causes the rotary attachment to stop quickly, which in turn tilts the tool in the opposite direction.
 Kickback is the result of improper use of the tool and / or procedures or conditions of use and can be
avoided by taking the precautions indicated as indicated below:
- Never place your principal close to the rotary accessory. The accessory may bounce off your hand.
- Do not place your body in the area where the use will move if the rebound occurs. The rebound will
propel the tool in the opposite direction to the movement.
- Sharp parts and edges tend to catch the rotating accessory and cause loss of control or kickback.
Take extreme care when using the tool on sharp edges.
