12. 

Avoid accidental starting.

  

Be sure the Power Switch is off before plugging    

in. 

 Carrying power tools with your finger on the Power Switch, or plugging in  

 

power tools with the Power Switch on, invites accidents.

13. 

Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before turning the power tool on.  

A    

wrench or a key that is left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result 
in personal injury.

14. 

Do not overreach.  Keep proper footing and balance at all times. 

 Proper  

 

footing and balance enables better control of the power tool in unexpected

 

situations.

15. 

Use safety equipment.  Always wear eye protection. 

 Dust mask, non-skid  

 

safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection must be used for appropriate

 

conditions.

TOOL USE AND CARE

16. 

Use clamps (not included) or other practical ways to secure and support    
the workpiece to a stable platform.

  Holding the work by hand or against your    

body is unstable and may lead to loss of control.

17. 

Do not force the tool.  Use the correct tool for your application. 

 The correct    

tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it is designed.

18. 

Do not use the power tool if the Power Switch does not turn it on or off.  

 

 

Any tool that cannot be controlled with the Power Switch is dangerous and must    
be replaced.

19. 

Disconnect the Power Cord Plug from the power source before making any 
adjustments, changing accessories, or storing the tool.  

Such preventive  

 

safety measures reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally.

20. 

Store idle tools out of reach of children and other untrained persons.  

Tools   

are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

21. 

Maintain tools with care.  Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.

  Properly  

 

maintained tools with a sharp cutting edge are less likely to bind and are easier    
to control.  Do not use a damaged tool.  Tag damaged tools “Do not use” until  

 

repaired.

22. 

Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, and   
any other condition that may affect the tool’s operation.  If damaged, have    
the tool serviced before using.

  Many accidents are caused by poorly main-

tained tools.
