READ AND UNDERSTAND THE OPERATORS INSTRUCTION MANUAL 

THOROUGHLY

 

BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO OPERATE THIS EQUIPMENT.  

Death or serious injury could occur if this machine is used improperly.

Extreme care must be taken when operating electric 

models with water present:  Ensure power cord is prop-

erly grounded, is attached to a Ground-Fault-Interrupter 

(GFI) outlet, and is undamaged.

  Check all electrical cables - be sure connections are tight and 

cable is continuous and in good condition.  Be sure cable is

   correctly rated for both the operating current and voltage of 

this equipment.

  Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can 

result in a risk of electric shock.  Check with qualified electri-

    cian or service person if there is any doubt as to whether the

   outlet is properly grounded.  Adhere to 

all

 local codes and 

ordinances.

 

NOTE:

 In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding    

provides a path of least resistance for the electric current to 

dissipate.  The motor is equipped with a grounded plug and 

must be connected to an outlet that is properly installed and 

properly grounded.  DO NOT modify the plug provided on the 

motor.  If the plug does not fit the outlet have a qualified electri

-

cian install the proper receptacle.

  Switch motor OFF 

before 

disconnecting power.

 Engine exhaust from this product contains 

chemicals known to the State of California to 

cause cancer, birth defects or other reproduc-

tive harm.

 

   Gasoline is extremely flammable and poisonous. 

It should only be dispensed in well ventilated areas, 

and with a cool engine.

   Small gasoline engines produce high concentra-

    tions  of carbon monoxide (CO) example: a 5 HP 4 cycle 

    engine operation in an enclosed 100,000 cu. ft. area with

    only one change of air per hour is capable of providing 

    deadly concentrations of CO in less than fifteen minutes. 

    Five changes of air in the same area will produce noxious 

    fumes in less than 30 minutes. Gasoline or propane pow-

    ered equipment should not be used in enclosed or partially

    enclosed areas. Symptoms of CO poisoning include, head-

    ache, nausea, weakness, dizziness, visual problems and 

    loss of consciousness. If symptoms occur - get into fresh

    air and seek medical attention immediately.

   ELECTRICAL POWERED EQUIPMENT

GASOLINE/PROPANE POWERED EQUIPMENT

  Equipment should only be operated by trained personnel in 

good physical condition and mental health (not fatigued).  The 

operator and maintenance personnel must be physically able 

to handle the bulk weight and power of this equipment.

  This is a one person tool.  Maintain a safe operating distance 

to other personnel.  It is the 

operators’ responsibility

 to keep 

other people (workers, pedestrians, bystanders, etc.) away 

during operation.  Block off  the work area in all directions with 

roping, safety netting, etc. for a safe distance.  Failure to do so 

may result in others being injured by flying debris or exposing 

them to harmful dust and noise.

  This equipment is intended for commercial use only. 

  For the operator’s safety and the safety of others, always keep 

all guards in place during operation.

  Never let equipment run unattended.

  Personal Protection Equipment and proper safety attire must 

be worn when operating this machinery.  The operator must 

wear approved safety equipment appropriate for the job such 

as hard hat and safety shoes when conditions require.  Hear-

ing protection MUST be used (operational noise levels of this 

equipment may exceed 85db). Eye protection MUST be worn 

at all times.  

Keep body parts and loose clothing away from moving 

parts.  Failure to do so could result in dismemberment 

or death.

  Do not modify the machine.  

  Stop motor/engine when adjusting or servicing this equipment. 

Maintain a safe operating distance from flammable 

materials.  Sparks from the cutting-action of this machine 

can ignite flammable materials or vapors.

   GENERAL   INSTRUCTIONS

DUST WARNING

Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, 

grinding, drilling, and other construction activi-

ties contains chemicals known to cause cancer, 

birth defects, or other reproductive harm. Some 

examples of these chemicals are:

 

  Lead from lead-based paints, and

 

  Crystalline silica from bricks and concrete and other 

   masonry products.

       Your risk of exposure to these chemicals varies depending 

on how often you do this type of work. To reduce your risk: 

work in a well ventilated area, use a dust control system, such 

as an industrial-style vacuum, and wear approved personal 

safety equipment, such as a dust/particle respirator designed 

to filter out microscopic particles.

  Do not disconnect power by pulling cord.  To disconnect, grasp      

the plug, not the cord.

  Unplug power cord at the machine when not in use and before     

servicing.
