GENERAL SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS
READ THIS OWNER’S MANUAL
COMPLETELY AND MAKE SURE YOU UNDERSTAND
ALL OF IT’S SAFETY GUIDELINES.
1. KEEP GUARDS IN PLACE and in working order.
2. REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS AND WRENCHES.
Always check to see that keys and adjusting
wrenches are removed from tool before turning it on.
3. KEEP WORK AREA CLEAN. Cluttered areas and
benches invite accidents.
4. DO NOT USE IN DANGEROUS ENVIRONMENT. Do
not use power tools in damp or wet locations, or
expose them to rain. Keep work area well lighted.
5. KEEP CHILDREN AWAY. All visitors should keep a
safe distance from the work area.
6. MAKE WORKSHOP CHILD PROOF with padlocks,
master switches or by removing starter keys.
7. DO NOT FORCE TOOL. It will do the job better and
be safer at the rate for which it was designed.
8. USE THE RIGHT TOOL.
Do not force tool or attach-
ment to do a job for which it was not designed.
9. WEAR PROPER APPAREL.
Do not wear loose
clothing, gloves, neckties, rings, bracelets, or other
jewelry which may get caught in moving parts.
Non-slip footwear is recommended. Wear protective
hair covering to contain long hair.
10. ALWAYS USE SAFETY GLASSES.
Also use face or
dust mask if cutting operation is dusty. Everyday
eyeglasses only have impact resistant lenses, they
are NOT safety glasses.
11. SECURE WORK.
Use clamps or a vise to hold work
when practical. This safety precaution allows for
proper tool operation freeing both hands to operate
tool.
12. DO NOT OVERREACH. Keep proper footing and
balance at all times.
13. MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE.
Keep tools sharp
and clean for best and safest performance. Follow
instructions for lubricating and changing acces-
sories.
14. DISCONNECT TOOLS FROM OUTLET
before
servicing; when changing accessories, such as
blades, bits, cutters, etc.
15. REDUCE THE RISK OF UNINTENTIONAL STARTING.
Make sure switch is in the “off” position before
