SPECIFIC PRODUCT WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS
1.
AVOID OVERLOADING THE TOOL.
If the speed drops abnormally, decrease the
pressure immediately.
2.
ALWAYS USE SHARPENED BITS.
If the bit stops abruptly, or the bit becomes
blocked, release the trigger switch immediately.
3.
USE THE LOCKING TRIGGER SWITCH PROPERLY.
Be aware that the router
will continue to operate while the locking mechanism is engaged. Never lay the
router down or hand it to another person while the locking mechanism is engaged.
4.
BEFORE ROUTING, RUN THE TOOL FOR ABOUT 10 SECONDS
to ensure
that all moving parts are running smoothly and there are no loose parts, rattles, or
sparking that would indicate damage.
5.
WARNING:
Under no circumstance is the Router base ever to be removed from
the Router in order to use bits that are too large to use with the base assembly
attached. The removal of the Router base and using the Router “Free Hand” can
lead to serious bodily injury!!
6.

observe the minimum gauge requirements
found in the following chart. Improper extension cord use can result in electrical
hazard and poor tool performance.

AVOID WET CONDITIONS WHEN USING ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT.
8.
USE ONLY GROUNDED OUTLET
with appropriate breaker switch inline.
9.
ALWAYS INSPECT POWER CORDS AND EXTENSION CORDS
for damage
before use. Never plug in a power cord that is not in good condition.
10.
HOLD TOOL BY INSULATED GRIPPING SURFACES WHEN PERFORMING
AN OPERATION WHERE THE CUTTING TOOL MAY CONTACT HIDDEN
WIRING OR ITS OWN CORD.
Contact with a “live” wire will make exposed metal
parts of the tool “live” and shock the operator.
11.
PEOPLE WITH PACEMAKERS SHOULD CONSULT THEIR PHYSICIAN(S)
BEFORE USING THIS PRODUCT.
Electromagnetic fields in close proximity to a
heart pacemaker could cause interference to or failure of the pacemaker. In
addition, people with pacemakers should adhere to the following:
Avoid operating power tools alone.
Don’t use a power tool with the power switch locked on.
Be certain that the tool is properly grounded. A ground fault interrupt (GFCI) system
is also a good precaution. This inexpensive device is a good safety measure
