1.
Hold tool 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 tool “live” and shock the operator.
2.
Maintain labels and nameplates.
These carry important information. If
unreadable or missing, contact a
MILWAUKEE service facility for a free replacement.
3.
Always wear safety goggles and dust mask. Use only in a well ventilated
area.
Using personal safety devices and in a safe environment reduce the risk for
injury.
4.
WARNING!
Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other
construction activities contains chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects or
other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:
•
lead from lead-based paint
•
crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, and
•
arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber.
Your risk from these exposures 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 those dust masks that are specifically
designed to filter out microscopic particles.
5.
Some woods contain preservatives that can be toxic.
Take extra care to
prevent inhalation and skin contact when working with these materials. Request, and
follow, any safety information available from your material supplier.
6.
Always make sure the workpiece is free from nails, screws and other
foreign objects. Keep the working edge away from the clamping surface.
Cutting these objects can cause loss of control of the tool and damage to the bit.
7.
Never hold the workpiece in one hand and the tool in the other hand when
using the tool. Never place hands near or below cutting surface.
Clamping
the material and guiding the tool with both hands is safer.
8.
Never use dull or damaged bits. Sharp bits must be handled with care.
Damaged bits can break during use. Dull bits require more force to push the tool,
which could cause the bit to break. Damaged bits can throw carbide pieces and burn
the workpiece.
9.
After changing the bit or making any adjustments, make sure the collet nut
and any other adjustment devices are securely tightened.
Loose adjustment
devices can unexpectedly shift, causing loss of control. Loose rotating components
will be violently thrown. Watch for vibration or wobbling that could indicate an improp-
erly installed bit.
10.
Maintain firm grip on router when starting motor to resist starting torque.
11.
Always keep the power supply cord away from moving parts on the tool.
Keep the cord away from the direction of the cut.
12.
Never start the tool when the bit is in contact with the material.
The bit cutting
edge may grab the material causing loss of control of the tool.
13.
Never lay the tool down until the bit has come to a complete stop.
The
spinning bit can grab the surface and pull the tool out of your control.
14.
Never touch the bit during or immediately after use.
After use the bit may be
hot enough to burn bare skin.
