Power tool use and care
18.
Do not force the power tool. Use the correct
power tool for your application.
The correct
power tool will do the job better and safer at the
rate for which it was designed.
19.
Do not use the power tool if the switch does
not turn it on and off.
Any power tool that cannot
be controlled with the switch is dangerous and
must be repaired.
20.
Disconnect the plug from the power source
and/or the battery pack from the power tool
before making any adjustments, changing
accessories, or storing power tools.
Such
preventive safety measures reduce the risk of
starting the power tool accidentally.
21.
Store idle power tools out of the reach of
children and do not allow persons unfamiliar
with the power tool or these instructions to
operate the power tool.
Power tools are
dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
22.
Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment
or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts
and any other condition that may affect the
power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the
power tool repaired before use.
Many accidents
are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
23.
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges
are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
24.
Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits
etc. in accordance with these instructions,
taking into account the working conditions
and the work to be performed.
Use of the power
tool for operations different from those intended
could result in a hazardous situation.
Service
25.
Have your power tool serviced by a qualified
repair person using only identical replacement
parts.
This will ensure that the safety of the power
tool is maintained.
26.
Follow instruction for lubricating and
changing accessories.
27.
Keep handles dry, clean and free from oil and
grease.

ROUTER SAFETY WARNINGS
1.
Hold power tools by insulated gripping
surfaces when performing an operation where
the cutting tool may contact hidden wiring or
its own cord.
Contact with a "live" wire will make
exposed metal parts of the tool "live" and shock
the operator.
2.
Use clamps or another practical way to secure
and support the workpiece to a stable platform.
Holding the work by hand or against your body
leaves it unstable and may lead to loss of control.
3.
Wear hearing protection during extended
period of operation.
4.
Handle the bits very carefully.
5.
Check the bit carefully for cracks or damage
before operation. Replace cracked or
damaged bit immediately.
6.
Avoid cutting nails. Inspect for and remove all
nails from the workpiece before operation.
7.
Hold the tool firmly with both hands.
8.
Keep hands away from rotating parts.
9.
Make sure the bit is not contacting the
workpiece before the switch is turned on.
10.
Before using the tool on an actual workpiece,
let it run for a while. Watch for vibration or
wobbling that could indicate improperly
installed bit.
11.
Be careful of the bit rotating direction and the
feed direction.
12.
Do not leave the tool running. Operate the tool
only when hand-held.
13.
Always switch off and wait for the bit to come
to a complete stop before removing the tool
from workpiece.
14.
Do not touch the bit immediately after
operation; it may be extremely hot and could
burn your skin.
15.
Do not smear the tool base carelessly with
thinner, gasoline, oil or the like. They may
cause cracks in the tool base.
16.
Draw attention to the need to use cutters of the
correct shank diameter and which are suitable
for the speed of the tool.
17.
Some material contains chemicals which may
be toxic. Take caution to prevent dust
inhalation and skin contact. Follow material
supplier safety data.
18.
Always use the correct dust mask/respirator
for the material and application you are
working with.
