REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS AND WRENCHES.
Form the habit of checking to see that keys and adjusting wrenches
are removed from the tool before turning it on.
•
KEEP THE WORK AREA CLEAN.
Cluttered areas and benches invite accidents.
•
DO NOT USE IN A DANGEROUS ENVIRONMENT.
Don’t use power tools in damp or wet locations, or expose them
to rain. Keep work area well lighted.
•
KEEP CHILDREN AWAY.
All visitors should be kept safe distance from the work area.

USE THE RIGHT TOOL.
Don’t force a tool or attachment to do a job for which it was not designed.
•
USE THE PROPER EXTENSION CORD.
Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. When using an
extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. An undersize cord will
cause a drop in the line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating.
For runs up to 25 feet, use a 16 AWG or
larger gauge cord. For runs up to 50 feet, use a 16 AWG or larger cord.
For runs up to 100 feet, use a 14 AWG or
larger cord. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.

WEAR PROPER APPAREL.
Do not wear loose clothing, gloves, neckties, rings, bracelets, or other jewelry which may
get caught in moving parts. Nonslip footwear is recommended. Wear protective hair covering to contain long hair.

both hands to operate the tool.

Serious injury could occur if the tool is tipped or if the cutting tool is unintentionally
contacted.
•
CHECK DAMAGED PARTS.
Before further use of the tool, a guard or other part that is damaged should be carefully
checked to determine that it will operate properly and perform its intended function. Check for alignment of moving
parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, mounting, and any other conditions that may affect its operation. A
guard or other part that is damaged should be properly repaired or replaced.

Your risk of exposure varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to these
chemicals, work in a well-ventilated area and work with approved safety equipment, such as face or dust masks that are
specifically designed to filter out microscopic particles.
