ROTARY TOOL SAFETY RULES

Safety is a combination of common sense, staying alert and knowing how your item works. 

SAVE THESE SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS. 

       

WARNING:

 Read and understand all warnings, cautions and operating instructions before using 

this tool. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in personal injury and tool damage. 

OPERATING ENVIRONMENT

1. Keep the tool away from water. Do not expose the tool to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power 
tool will increase the risk of electric shock. 

2. Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, 
gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.

 

3. Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas can cause accidents. Do not work on floor 
surfaces that are slippery with sawdust or wax.

4. Keep bystanders at a safe distance from the work area. Never allow children or pets near the tool.

PERSONAL SAFETY 

1. Stay alert. Watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a 
power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inatten-
tion while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury. 

2. Use personal protective equipment:

• Always wear safety goggles at all times that comply with ANSI Z87.1. 
• Use hearing protection such as plugs or muffs during extended periods of operation. 
• Wear a face mask or dust mask to fight the dust produced by sanding operations.

3. Do not wear loose clothing, gloves, neckties, or jewelry (rings, watches, etc.) when operating the tool. 
Inappropriate clothing and items can get caught in moving parts and draw you in. Always wear non-slip 
footwear and tie back long hair.

4. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. 

WORKPIECE INSPECTION 

1. Before operation, check the workpiece for any cracks, bumps, nails or obstructions. 

2. Check the position of all electrical wiring before drilling into walls, floors or ceilings.

3. Do not cut any material that exceeds the rotary tool or the rotary tool bit’s operation capacity. 

4. Use clamps to secure the workpiece whenever possible to prevent wobble, damage to the workpiece, 
and personal injury.
