The following 

instructions must be followed at all times. 

Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock,

fire, and/or serious personal injury.  

There are certain applications for which this tool was designed. We strongly recommend that this tool not be modified

and/or used for any other application other than that for which it was designed. If you have any questions about its

application, do not use the tool until you have contacted us and we have advised you.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

                                                  

GENERAL SAFETY 

KNOW YOUR POWER TOOL. 

Read the owner’s manual 

carefully. Learn the tool’s applications, work capabilities, 

and its specific potential hazards.

BEFORE USING YOUR MACHINE

To avoid serious injury and damage to the tool, read and 

follow all of the Safety and Operating Instructions before 

operating the machine.

1.  Some dust created by using power tools contains 

chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, 

birth defects, or other reproductive harm.

Some examples of these chemicals are:

•  Lead from lead-based paints.

•  Crystalline silica from bricks, cement, and other 

•  masonry products.

•  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 specially designed to filter out microscopic 

particles.

2.  

READ 

the entire Owner’s Manual. 

LEARN

 how to use 

the tool for its intended applications.

3.  

GROUND ALL TOOLS.

 If the tool is supplied with a 3 

prong plug, it must be plugged into a 3-contact electrical 

receptacle. The 3rd prong is used to ground the tool and 

provide protection against accidental electric shock. 

DO 

NOT 

remove the 3rd prong. See Grounding Instructions 

on the following pages.

4.  

AVOID A DANGEROUS WORKING ENVIRONMENT. 

DO NOT

 use electrical tools in a damp environment or 

expose them to rain.

5.  

DO NOT

 use electrical tools in the presence of 

flammable liquids or gases.

6.  

ALWAYS

 keep the work area clean, well lit, and 

organized. 

DO NOT

 work in an environment with floor 

surfaces that are slippery from debris, grease, and wax.

7.  

KEEP VISITORS AND CHILDREN AWAY.

 

DO NOT 

permit people to be in the immediate work area, 

especially when the electrical tool is operating.

8.  

DO NOT FORCE THE TOOL

 to perform an operation 

for which it was not designed. It will do a safer and 

higher quality job by only performing operations for 

which the tool was intended.

9.  

WEAR PROPER CLOTHING. DO NOT

 wear loose 

clothing, gloves, neckties, or jewelry. These items can 

get caught in the machine during operations and pull the 

operator into the moving parts. The user must wear a 

protective cover on their hair, if the hair is long, to 

prevent it from contacting any moving parts.

10.  

CHILDPROOF THE WORKSHOP AREA

 by 

removing switch keys, unplugging tools from the 

electrical receptacles, and using padlocks.

11.  

ALWAYS UNPLUG THE TOOL FROM THE 

ELECTRICAL RECEPTACLE

 when making adjust-

ments, changing parts or performing any maintenance.

                          in conjunction with other symbols or pictographs.

 

 

       Indicates an imminently hazardous situation, which, if not avoided, could result in death or 

 

 

       serious injury.

 

 

       Indicates a potentially hazardous situation, which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious  

 

 

       injury.

 

 

       Indicates a potentially hazardous situation, which, if not avoided, could result in minor or 

 

 

       moderate injury.

             NOTICE:
