ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS AND SAFETY
Be sure your extension cord is properly wired and in good
condition. Always replace a damaged extension cord or
have it repaired by a qualified person before using it. Pro-
tect your extension cords from sharp objects, excessive
heat and damp or wet areas.
Use a separate electrical circuit for your tools. This circuit
must not be less than a #12 wire with a 20 A time lag fuse
or a #14 wire with a 15 A time lag fuse.
NOTE: When using an extension cord on a circuit with a
#14 wire, the extension cord must not exceed 25 feet in
length. Before connecting the tool to the power line, make
sure the switch is in the OFF position and the electric cur-
rent is rated the same as the current stamped on the mo-
tor nameplate, running at a lower voltage will damage the
motor.
CAUTION In all cases, make certain the receptacle
is properly grounded. If you are not sure, have a
qualified electrician check the receptacle.

guard in place. Carbide is a very hard but brittle material. Care
should be taken while mounting, using, and storing carbide
tipped blades to prevent accidental damage. Slight shocks,
such as striking the tip while handling, can seriously damage
the blade. Foreign objects in the workpiece, such as wire or
nails, can also cause tips to crack or break off. Before using,
