DUST AND SILICA WARNING
Grinding/cutting/drilling of masonry, concrete, metal, and other materials can generate dust, mists
and fumes containing chemicals known to cause serious or fatal injury or illness, such as respiratory
disease, cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. If you are unfamiliar with the risks
associated with the particular process and/or material being cut or the composition of the tool being
used, review the material safety data sheet and/or consult your employer, the material
manufacturer/supplier, governmental agencies such as OSHA and NIOSH and other sources on
hazardous materials and make certain to comply with all product warnings and instructions for the
safe and effective use of the material being cut. California and some other authorities, for instance,
have published lists of substances known to cause cancer, reproductive toxicity, or other harmful
effects.
Control dust, mist, and fumes at the source where possible. In this regard use good work practices
and follow the recommendations of the manufacturer/supplier, OSHA/NIOSH, and occupational and
trade associations. Water should be used for dust suppression when wet cutting is feasible. When the
hazards from inhalation of dust, mists and fumes cannot be eliminated through engineering controls
such as vacuum and/or water mist, the operator and any bystanders should always wear a respirator
approved by NIOSH/MSHA for the material being cut.


1. Work area safety
a. Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
b. Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of
flammable liquids, gases, or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or
fumes.
c. Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause
you to lose control.
2. Electrical safety
a. Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use
any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching
outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
b. Avoid body contact with earthed (grounded) surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges,
and refrigerators. There is increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
c. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will
increase the risk of electric shock or equipment failure.
d. Do not abuse the power cord. Never use the power cord for carrying, pulling or
unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges, or moving parts.
Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
e. While operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use.
Use of an extension cord suitable for outdoor use, and of the correct length and gauge reduces
the risk of electric shock.
f. If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a ground fault circuit
interrupter (GFCI) protected supply. Use of an GFCI reduces the risk of electric shock. The
CE414-350 is equipped with a GFCI ensure that it is operating properly before use.
3. Personal safety
a. 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 influence of drugs, alcohol, or

medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal
injury.
b. Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment such
as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate
conditions will reduce personal injuries.
c. Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off position before connecting
to power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools
with your finger on the power switch or energising power tools that have the switch on invites
accidents. Keep your finger off the power switch unti you are ready to use the tool and all
conditions for use are safe.
d. Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key
left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.
e. Do no overreach. Always keep proper footing and balance. This enables better control of the
power tool in unexpected situations.
f. Dress properly. Do no 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 and may result in injury.
g. If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection systems,
ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of dust collection can reduce dust-related
hazards.
4. Power tool use and care
a. Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. The correct
power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
b. Do not use the power tool if the power switch does not turn it on and off. Any power tool
that cannot be controlled with the power switch is dangerous and must be repaired before use.
c. Disconnect the power 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
preventative safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
d. Store unused power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar
with the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are
dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
e. Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of
parts and any other condition that may affect the power tool’s operation. If damaged, have
the power tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power
tools.
f. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges
are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
g. Use 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 different from these intended could result in hazardous situation.
5. Service
a. Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical
replacement parts. This ensure the safety of the power tool is maintained.

Kickback and Related Warnings

Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched or snagged rotating wheel. Pinching or snagging
causes rapid stalling of the rotating wheel which in turn causes the uncontrolled power tool to
be forced in the direction opposite of the wheel’s rotation at the point of the binding.
For example, if an abrasive wheel is 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.
WARNING: Avoid cutting in the upper quadrant of the blade,
especially when beginning the cut. This area is highly likely
to lead to kickback.
WARNING: When cutting plastics, do not allow the plastic to
melt. If the plastic melts, it can stick to the blade, leading to
kickback.
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:
Maintain a firm grip on the power tool and position your body and arm to allow you to resist
kickback forces. Always use auxiliary handle, if provided, for maximum control over kickback or
torque reaction during start-up. The operator can control torque reactions or kickback forces if
proper precautions are taken.
Never place your hand near the rotating accessory. Accessory may kickback over your hand.
Do not position your body in line with the rotating wheel. Kickback will propel the tool in direction
opposite to the wheel’s movement at the point of snagging.
Use special care when working corners, sharp edges etc. Avoid bouncing and snagging the
accessory. Corners, sharp edges or bouncing tend to snag the rotating accessory and cause
loss of control or kickback.
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.
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.
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.
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 kickback if the power tool is restarted in the
workpiece.
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.
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
