h.  Wear personal protective equipment. Depending 

on  the  application,  use  face  shield,  safety 

goggles  or  safety  glasses. 

As appropriate, 

wear a dust mask, hearing protectors, gloves and 

workshop apron capable of stopping small abrasive 

or workpiece fragments. The eye protection must 

be  capable  of  stopping  flying  debris  generated  by 

various operations. The dust mask or respirator 

must be capable of filtrating particles generated by 

your operation. Prolonged exposure to high-intensity 

noise may cause hearing loss.

i.  Keep bystanders a safe distance away from the 

work area. 

Anyone entering the work area must wear 

personal protective equipment. Fragments of the 

workpiece or of a broken accessory may fly away and 

cause injury beyond the immediate area of operation.

j.  Hold  the  power  tool  by  insulated  gripping 

surfaces  only,  when  performing  an  operation 

where the cutting tool may contact hidden wiring 

Contact with a "live" wire will also make exposed 

metal parts of the power tool "live" and could give the 

operator an electric shock.

k.  Always hold the tool firmly in your hand(s) during 

startup.

 The reaction torque of the motor, as it 

accelerates to full speed, can cause the tool to twist.

l.  Use clamps to support the workpiece whenever 

practical.  Never  hold  a  small  workpiece  in  one 

hand  and  the  tool  in  the  other  while  in  use 

Clamping a small workpiece allows you to use your 

hand(s) to control the tool. Round material such as 

dowel rods, pipes or tubing have a tendency to roll 

while being cut and may cause the bit to bind or jump 

toward you.

m. Never lay the power tool down until the accessory 

has  come  to  a  complete  stop 

The spinning 

accessory may grab the surface and pull the power 

tool out of your control.

n.  After changing bits or making any adjustments, 

make  sure  the  collet  nut,  chuck  or  any  other 

adjustment devices are securely tightened. 

Loose 

adjustment devices can unexpectedly shift, causing 

loss of control, loose rotation components will be 

violently thrown.

o.  Do not run the power tool while carrying it at your 

side.

 Accidental contact with the spinning accessory 

could snag your clothing, pulling the accessory into 

your body.

p.  Regularly  clean  the  power  tool’s  air  vents 

The 

motor’s fan will draw the dust inside the housing and 

excessive accumulation of powdered metal may 

cause electrical hazards.

q.  Do  not  operate  the  power  tool  near  flammable 

materials

. Sparks could ignite these materials.

r.  Do  not  use  accessories  that  require  liquid 

coolants.

 Using water or other liquid coolants may 

result in electrocution or shock.
