SECTION 1: SAFETY
DISCONNECT POWER FIRST. Always disconnect
tool from power supply BEFORE making adjust-
ments, changing tooling, or servicing machine. This
prevents an injury risk from unintended startup or
contact with live electrical components.
EYE PROTECTION. Always wear ANSI-approved
safety glasses or a face shield when operating or
observing machinery to reduce the risk of eye
injury or blindness from flying particles. Everyday
eyeglasses are not approved safety glasses.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY. Tool plug must match
outlet. Double-insulated tools have a polarized
plug (one blade is wider than the other), which
must be plugged into a polarized outlet. Never
modify plug. Do not use adapter for grounded
tools. Use a ground fault circuit interrupter if
operation is unavoidable in damp locations. Avoid
touching grounded surfaces when operating tool.
OWNER’S MANUAL. Read and understand this
owner’s manual BEFORE using machine.
TRAINED OPERATORS ONLY. Untrained oper-
ators have a higher risk of being hurt or killed.
Only allow trained/supervised people to use this
power tool. When tool is not being used, discon-
nect power, and store in out-of-reach location
to prevent unauthorized use—especially around
children. Make workshop kid proof!
DANGEROUS ENVIRONMENTS. Do not use
tools in areas that are wet, cluttered, or have poor
lighting. Operating tools in these areas greatly
increases risk of accidents and injury.
MENTAL ALERTNESS REQUIRED. Full mental
alertness is required for safe operation of power
tools. Never operate under the influence of drugs
or alcohol, when tired, or when distracted.

Manual Before Operating this Power Tool

tance of the safety messages. The progression of symbols is described below. Remember that
safety messages by themselves do not eliminate danger and are not a substitute for proper
accident prevention measures. Always use common sense and good judgment.
