Additional Safety Rules For 
Router Trimmers

 

m

Hold the power tool by insulated 
gripping surfaces, when performing 
an operation where the cutting 
accessory may contact hidden wiring. 

Cutting accessory contacting a “live” 
wire may make exposed metal parts of 
the power tool “live” and could give the 
operator an electric shock.

 

m

Do not use accessories which 
are not specifically designed 
and recommended by the tool 
manufacturer. 

Just because the accessory 

can be attached to your power tool, it does 
not assure safe operation.

 

m

The rated speed of the accessory 
must be at least equal to the 
maximum speed marked on the 
power tool. 

Accessories running faster 

than their rated speed can break and fly 
apart.

 

m

The outside diameter and the 
thickness of your accessory must be 
within the capacity rating of your 
power tool. 

Incorrectly sized accessories 

cannot be adequately guarded or controlled.

 

m

Do not use a damaged accessory. 
Before each use inspect the accessory 
such as router bits for chips and 
cracks or excess wear. If the power 
tool or accessory is dropped, inspect 
for damage or install an undamaged 
accessory.
