Personal Safety
1.
Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool.
Do not use the tool while tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication.
A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
2.
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothes or jewellery. Contain long hair. Keep your hair,
clothes, and gloves away from moving parts.
3.
Avoid accidental starting. Be sure switch is off before plugging in. Carrying tools with your
finger on the switch or plugging in tools that have the switch on may invite accidents.
4.
Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before turning the tool on. A wrench or a key that is
left attached to a rotating part of the tool may result in personal injury.
5.
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Proper footing and balance
enable better control of the tool in unexpected situations.
6.
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Contain long hair. Keep your hair,
clothing, and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be
caught in moving parts.
7.
Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard
hat, or hearing protection must be used for appropriate conditions. Ordinary eye or sun
glasses are NOT suitable for eye protection.
Tool Use and Care
1.
Use clamps or other practical way to secure and support the workpiece to a stable platform.
Holding the workpiece by hand or against your body is unstable and may lead to loss of
control.
2.
Do not force the tool. Use the correct tool for your application. The correct tool will do the
job better and safer at the rate for which it is designed.
3.
Do not use the tool if the switch cannot be turned on or off. Any tool that cannot be
controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired before use.
4.
Disconnect the plug from the power source before making any adjustment, changing
accessories, or storing the tool. Such preventive safety measures can reduce the risk of
starting the tool accidentally.
