General Safety
Warning: when using electric tools, basic
safety precautions should always be
followed to reduce the risk of re, electric
shock and personal injury. Please read all
of these instructions before attempting to
operate this machine. Save this manual for
future reference.
• Keep work area clear. Cluttered work
areas invite accidents.
• Consider work area environment. Do not
expose tools to rain. Do not use tools in
damp or wet locations. Keep work area
well lit. Never use tools near ammable
liquids or gases.
• Protect yourself against electric shock.
Avoid body contact with earthed or
grounded surfaces.
• Keep other people away. Do not let others,
especially children, come close to the
work, and touch the tool or power cable.
Keep them away from the work area.
• Store idle tools. When not in use, tools
should be stored in a dry locked-up place,
out of children’s reach.
• Never force the tools. Your tools will be
more ecient and safer when used at the
rate for which they were intended.
Personal Safety
• Stay alert, watch what you are doing and
use common sense when operating a
power tool. Do not use a power tool while
you are tired or under the inuence of
drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment
of inattention while operating power tools
may result in serious personal injury.
• Use personal protective equipment.
Always wear eye protection. Protective
equipment such as dust mask, non-
skid safety shoes, hard hat, hearing
protection, anti-vibration gloves used
for appropriate conditions will reduce
personal injuries.
• Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure
the switch is in the o-position before
connecting to power source and/or
battery pack, picking up or carrying the
tool. Carrying power tools with your
nger on the switch or energising power
tools that have the switch on invites
accidents.
• Remove any adjusting key or wrench
before turning a power tool on. A wrench
or a key left attached to a rotating part
of the power tool may result in personal
injury.
• Do not overreach. Keep proper footing
and balance at all times. This enables
better control of the power tool in
unexpected situations.
• Dress properly. Do not wear loose
clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair,
clothing and gloves away from moving
parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long
hair can be caught in moving parts.

Safe Use Of Power Tools
Do not force the power tool. Use the correct
power tool for your application. The correct
tool will do the job better and safer at the
rate for which it was designed.
• Do not use the power tool if the switch
does not turn it on and o. Any power tool
that cannot be controlled with the switch
is dangerous and must be repaired.
• Disconnect the plug from the power source
and/or the battery pack from the power
tool before making any adjustments,
changing accessories, or storing power
tools. Such preventive safety measures
reduce the risk of starting the power tool
accidentally.
• Store idle power tools out of the reach
of children and do not allow persons
unfamiliar with the power tool or these
instructions to operate the tool. Power
tools are dangerous in the hands of
untrained users.
• Maintain power tools. Check for
misalignment or binding of moving parts,
breakage of parts and any other condition
that may aect the power tool’s operation.
If damaged, have the power tool repaired
before use. Many accidents are caused
by poorly maintained power tools.
• Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly maintained cutting tools with
sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind
and are easier to control.
• Use the power tool, accessories and
tool bits etc. in accordance with these
instructions, taking into account the
working conditions and the work to be
performed. Use of the power tool for
operations dierent from those intended
could result in a hazardous situation.

another battery pack.
• Use power tools only with specically
designated battery packs. Use of any
other battery packs may create a risk of
injury and re.
• Keep battery pack and charger away
from other metal objects, like paper clips,
coins, keys, nails, screws or other small
metal objects, that can make a connection
from one terminal to another. Shorting the
terminals together may cause burns or a
re.
• Under abusive conditions, liquid may be
ejected from the battery; avoid contact.
If contact accidentally occurs, ush with
water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally
seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the
battery may cause irritation or burns.

by way of the arbour hole of the accessory.
Additional Safety & Working
Instructions
Accessories not matching the mounting
hardware of the tool will run o balance,
with excessive vibration and cause loss of
control.
• Do not use any damaged accessory. All
accessories should be inspected before use
and checked for chips and cracks. If the tool
or accessory is dropped, please inspect for
damage before using. After inspecting and
installing an accessory, place yourself and
anyone else in close proximity, away from
the rotating accessory and run the tool for
one minute at maximum load speed.
• Wear personal protective equipment i.e.
hearing protectors, eye protection (face
shield, safety goggles or safety glasses),
gloves, dust mask and a workshop apron
that is capable of stopping small abrasive
or workpiece fragments. The dust mask or
respirator must be able to ltrate particles
produced by the operating tool. Please note
that prolonged exposure to high intensity
noise may cause hearing loss.
• Any person entering the work area must
also wear personal protective equipment.
Fragments of the workpiece of form a
broken accessory may y o and cause
injury to persons beyond the immaculate
area of operation.
• Do not activate the power tool while it is
being carried. Accidental contact with the
rotating accessory could snag on your

Kielder WT Ltd KWT-013-IMH22
•Always wait until the tool has stopped
completely before setting it down.
•Hold power tools by the insulated gripping
surface as the tool may contact hidden wiring
when working into areas such as walls or
oors. Contact with a ‘live’ wire will make
exposed metal parts of the tool ‘live’ and
shock the operator.
•Be aware that this tool is always in an
operating condition as it does not have to be
plugged into an electrical socket.
Operational Safety - Kickback
& Related Warnings
• Kickback is a sudden reaction to a snagged
rotating wheel or any other accessory.
Snagging causes the rotating accessory
to stall sharply, which in turn results in the
uncontrolled power tool to be forced in the
opposite direction of the accessory rotation.
If an abrasive wheel is snagged or pinched
by the workpiece, the edge of the wheel
that enters the pinch point can dig into the
material’s surface causing the wheel to kick
out. The wheel may jump toward or away
from the operator, depending on the direction
of the wheel’s movement at the point of
pinching. Abrasive wheels may break as a
result.
Kickback is the result of power tool
misuse/incorrect operating procedures
and can be avoided by taking the
following precautions:-
•Maintain a rm grip on the power tool and
position your body and arm to allow you to
resist kickback. The operator can control
torque reactions or kickback forces if the
proper precautions are followed.
• Do not put your hand near the rotating
accessory as the accessory may kickback
over your hand.
• Do not position your body in an area where
the power tool will move if kickback happens.
A kickback will move the tool in the opposite
direction to the wheel’s movement at the
point of snagging.
• Use special care when working on sharp
edges and corners to avoid bouncing or
snagging the accessory which may cause
kickback or loss of control.
• Do not attach a toothed saw blade or saw
chain woodcarving blade as these blades
frequently cause kickback and loss of
control.
Warnings Specic to Abrasive
Disc Operations
• Use only wheel types that are compatible
with your power tool together with the
specially designed guard for the selected
wheel. Wheels that haven’t been designed
for use on the tool are not safe as they
cannot be guarded securely.
• The grinding surface of centre recessed
wheels must be mounted below the plane
of the guard lip to provide adequate
protection.
• The guard should be securely attached
to the power tool and positioned so that
the least amount of wheel is exposed.
The guard protects the operator from
any broken wheel fragments as well as
preventing accidental contact with wheel
and sparks that could ignite clothing.
• Wheels must only be used for specied
applications. Do not grind with the side of
the cut-o wheel. Side forces applied to
abrasive cut-o wheels may cause them to
shatter.
• Use undamaged wheel anges of the
correct size and shape for the selected
wheel. Wheel anges support the wheel and
reduce the possibility of breakage. Flanges
for cut-o wheels may be dierent from
grinding wheel anges.
• Don’t use worn down wheels from larger
power tools as these are not suitable for the
higher speed of a small tool and may break.

• When the battery pack is not being used,
the battery should be stored so that foreign
substances like dust and water do not
contaminate the unit.
• When the battery pack is being charged,
ensure that the terminals are free of dust
and water. Clean the terminals before using
the battery if any foreign substances are
seen.
• During charging the charger and battery
may become slightly warm. This is normal.
DO NOT charge the battery for a long
period.
• The life of the battery pack may be
adversely aected by dust or water during
operation.
• If the motor or battery becomes hot, the
protection function will activate and the
motor or battery will stop operating.
• Before inserting the battery pack, always
check to ensure that the tool is turned o.
• For safe use ensure that the battery pack is
installed properly and securely to the main
unit before operating.
• Do not use other than the Kielder battery
packs that are designed for use with this
rechargeable tool.
• Kielder is not responsible for any damage
or accident caused by the use
of recycled or counterfeit battery

• Do not attempt to dismantle or modify the
battery pack.
• Do not subject the battery pack to shocks or
drive nails or similar items into it.
• Do not allow metal objects to touch the
terminals on the battery pack.
CAUTION!
This product is powered
by a rechargeable battery
system, please pay
attention to these additional instructions:
WARNING!
Do not touch grinding
disc, workpiece or any o-
cuts until they have cooled down. These
items can become extremely hot while
working and pose a signicant burn risk.
Additional Safety Warnings
Specic For Abrasive Cut
O Operations
• Do not apply excessive pressure or attempt
to make an excessive cut as this will ‘jam’
the cut-o wheel. Over-stressing the wheel
increases the load with potential for 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 as the wheel,
at the point of operation, is moving away
from your body. The possible kickback may
propel the spinning wheel and the power
tool towards you.
• When the wheel is binding or when
interrupting a cut, switch o the power tool
and hold it motionless until the wheel comes
to a stop. Do not remove the cut-o wheel
from the cut while the wheel is in motion,
otherwise kickback may occur. If the wheel is
binding, investigate and take action to clear
the cause.
• Do not restart the cutting action in the
workpiece. The wheel may bind or kickback
if the power tool is restarted in the workpiece.
• Ensure any large workpieces are supported
to reduce the risk of wheel pinching and
kickback. Larger workpieces can sag under
their own weight and supports should be put
under the workpiece near the line of cut and
near the edge on both sides of the wheel.
• Take care when making a ‘pocket cut’ into
walls or other blind areas. The wheel may
cut into gas or water pipes, electrical wiring
or objects that can cause kickback.
