mask, hearing protectors, gloves and workshop
apron capable of stopping small abrasive or
work piece fragments. The eye protection must
be capable of stopping flying debris generated
by various operations.
The eye protection must
be capable of stopping flying debris generated by
various operations. The dust mask or respirator
must be capable of filtering out particles generated
by your operation. Prolonged exposure to high
intensity noise may cause hearing loss.
8.
Keep bystanders a safe distance away from work
area. Anyone entering the work area must wear
personal protective equipment.

addition, people with pacemakers should:
• Avoid operating alone.
• Do not use with power switch locked on.
• Properly maintain and inspect to avoid
electrical shock.
• Any power cord must be properly
grounded. Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter
