Personal Safety
1. Stay alert, watch what you are doing, and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use tools when tired or
under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A momentary lack of attention while operating a power tool may result
in serious personal injury.
2. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Contain long hair. Keep hair, clothing, and gloves away from moving
parts. Loose clothing, jewelry, or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
3. Avoid accidental starting. Make sure the trigger switch is off before plugging the tool in. Carrying tools with the trigger held
on or plugging in tools with the trigger switch on invites accidents.
4. Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before turning on the tool. A wrench or key that is left attached to a rotating part of the
tool may result in personal injury.
5. Do not overreach. Keep a proper footing and balance at all times. Proper footing and balance enables better control of the
tool in unexpected situations.
6. Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Dust mask, non-slip safety shoes, hardhat, or hearing protection must be
used for appropriate conditions.
Tool Use and Care
1. Use clamps or other practical means 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.
2. 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.
3. Do not use the tool if the switch does not turn it on or off. Any tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous
and must be repaired.
4. Disconnect the plug from the power source before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing the tool. Such
preventative safety measures reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally.
5. Store idle tools out of reach of children and untrained persons. Tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users. Keep
visitors away from the power tools and work area.
6. Maintain tools with care. 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
maintained tools. Inspect power cords periodically and replace if damaged.
7. Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for your model. Use the power tools and accessories
in accordance with these instructions and in the manner intended for the particular type of tool, taking into account the
working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool or accessories for operations different from
intended could result in a hazardous situation.
