16. USE RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES.
using accessories and
attachments not recommended by the manufacturer or intended for use on this type
tool, may cause damage to the machine or result in personal injury to the user.
Consult the instruction manual for recommended accessories.
17. MAKE SURE YOUR EXTENSION CORD IS THE PROPER SIZE AND
IS IN GOOD CONDITION.
When using an extension cord, be sure to use
one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. An undersized cord
will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and tool overheating.
Consult the Extension Cord Chart for the correct size based on the cord length and
nameplate ampere rating. If ever in doubt, use the next heavier wire gauge cord.
The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.
18. SECURE THE WORK-PIECE.
use clamps or a vise to hold the work-piece
when practical. using clamps or similar mechanical device is safer than using your
hand(s) and allows you to use both hands to operate the tool. Losing control of the
work-piece can cause personal injury.
19. DON’T OVERREACH
.
Maintain proper footing and balance at all times; loss of
balance can cause you to fall into the working machine, possibly causing an injury.
20. NEVER STAND ON THE TOO
L.
An injury may occur if the machine is tipped
or if you should unintentionally contact the cutting tool.
21. DO NOT FORCE THE TOOL.
The tool will perform the job better and safer
at the feed rate for which it was designed. Forcing the tool could possibly damage
the machine and may result in personal injury.
22. FEED THE WORK-PIECE IN THE CORRECT DIRECTION AND
SPEED.
Feed the work-piece into a blade, cutter, or abrasive surface against the
direction of the cutting tool’s direction of rotation only. Incorrectly feeding the
work-piece in the same direction as the cutting tool rotates causes the work-piece to
be thrown out at high speed.
23. NEVER LEAVE THE TOOL RUNNING UNATTENDED. TURN THE
POWER OFF.
Don’t leave the machine until it comes to a complete stop.
24. TURN THE MACHINE “OFF”, AND DISCONNECT THE MACHINE
FROM THE POWER SOURCE
before adjusting or changing set-ups, or when
making repairs. An accidental start-up may occur causing personal injury.
25. NEVER USE THE TOOL IN AN EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERE.
Normal
sparking of the motor could ignite fumes.
26. KEEP THE TOOL DRY, CLEAN, AND FREE FROM OIL AND
GREASE.
Always use a clean cloth when cleaning. Never use brake fluids,
gasoline, petroleum-based products, or any solvents to clean the tool.
