Machine & Workshop Safety Instructions
Read and understand all warnings and operating instructions before using this equipment. Failure to follow all
instructions listed below, may result in electric shock, fire, and/or serious personal injury or property damage.
Machinery can be dangerous if safe and proper operating procedures are not followed. As with all machinery, there are
certain hazards involved with the operation of the product. Using the machine with respect and caution will considerably
lessen the possibility of personal injury. However, if normal safety precautions are overlooked or ignored, personal
injury to the operator may result. Safety equipment such as guards, push sticks, hold-downs, feather boards, goggles,
dust masks and hearing protection can reduce your potential for injury. But even the best guard won’t make up for poor
judgment, carelessness or inattention. Always use common sense and exercise caution in the workshop. If a procedure
feels dangerous, don’t try it. Figure out an alternative procedure that feels safer. REMEMBER: Your personal safety is
your responsibility.
OWNER’S MANUAL. Read and understand this owner’s manual BEFORE using machine.
TRAINED OPERATORS ONLY. Untrained operators have a higher risk of being hurt or killed. Only allow
trained/supervised people to use this machine. When machine is not being used, disconnect power, remove switch keys,
or lock-out machine to prevent unauthorized use—especially around children. Make your workshop kid proof!
DANGEROUS ENVIRONMENTS. Do not use machinery in areas that are wet, cluttered, or have poor lighting. Operating
machinery in these areas greatly increases the risk of accidents and injury.
MENTAL ALERTNESS REQUIRED. Full mental alertness is required for safe operation of machinery. Never operate
under the influence of drugs or alcohol, when tired, or when distracted.
ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT INJURY RISKS. You can be shocked, burned, or killed by touching live electrical components
or improperly grounded machinery. To reduce this risk, only allow qualified service personnel to do electrical installation
or repair work, and always disconnect power before accessing or exposing electrical equipment.
DISCONNECT POWER FIRST. Always disconnect machine from power supply BEFORE making adjustments, changing
tooling, or servicing machine. This prevents an injury risk from unintended start-up 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.
