These wheels will grab if they become slightly canted in the
groove, and can kickback. When cut-o wheels grab, the wheel itself
usually breaks. When a rotary le, high-speed cuer or tungsten carbide
cuer grabs, it may jump from the groove and you could lose control of
the tool.

The reacon torque of the motor, as it accelerates to full speed, can cause
the tool to twist.
If you lose
control, the cord may be cut or snagged and your hand or arm may be
pulled into the spinning accessory.
The spinning accessory may grab the surface and pull
the power tool out of your control.
Accidental contact with the spinning accessory could snag your clothing,
