SAFETY RULES
1.
KEEP GUARDS IN PLACE and in working order.
2.
REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS AND WRENCHES.
Form habit of checking to see that keys and
adjusting wrenches are removed from tool before
turning it on.
3.
KEEP WORK AREA CLEAN. Cluttered areas and
benches invite accidents.
4.
DON'T USE IN A DANGEROUS ENVIRONMENT.
Don't use power tools in damp or wet locations, or
expose them to rain. Keep work area well lighted.
5.
KEEP CHILDREN AWAY. All visitors should be kept
at a safe distance from the work area.
6.
MAKE YOUR WORKSHOP KID PROOF with
padlocks, master switches, or by removing starter
keys.
7.
DON'T FORCE TOOL. It will do the job better and
safer at the rate for which it was designed.
8.
USE RIGHT TOOL. Don't force tool or attachment to
do a job for which it was not designed.
9.
USE PROPER EXTENSION CORD. Make sure your
extension cord is in good condition. When using an
extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to
carry the current your product will draw. An
undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage
resulting in loss of power and overheating. Table A
shows the correct size to use depending on cord
length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use
the next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge
number, the heavier the chord.
10.
WEAR PROPER APPAREL Do not wear loose
clothing, gloves, neckties, rings, bracelets, or other
jewelry which may get caught in moving parts.
Nonslip footwear is recommended. Wear protective
hair covering to contain long hair.
11.
ALWAYS USE SAFETY GLASSES. Also use a face
or dust mask if cutting operation is dusty. Everyday
eyeglasses only have impact resistant lenses, they
are NOT safety glasses.
12.
SECURE WORK. Use clamps or a vise to hold the
work when practical. It's safer than using your hand
and it frees both hands to operate the tool.
13.
DON'T OVERREACH. Keep proper footing and
balance at all times.
14.
MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE. Keep tools sharp
and clean for best and safest performance. Follow
instructions for lubricating and changing
accessories.
15.
DISCONNECT TOOLS before servicing and when
changing accessories, such as blades, bits, cutters,
and the like.
16.
REDUCE THE RISK OF UNINTENTIONAL
STARTING. Make sure power switch is in the OFF
position before plugging the machine in.
17.
USE RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES. Consult the
owner's manual for recommended accessories. The
use of improper accessories may cause risk of injury
to persons.
18.
NEVER STAND ON TOOL Serious injury could occur
if the tool is tipped or if the cutting tool is
unintentionally contacted.
19.
CHECK DAMAGED PARTS. Before further use of the
tool, a guard or other part that is damaged should be
carefully checked to determine that it will operate
properly and perform its intended function - check
for alignment of moving parts, binding of moving
parts, breakage of parts, mounting, and any other
conditions that may affect its operation. A guard or
other part that is damaged should be properly
repaired or replaced.
20.
DIRECTION OF FEED. Feed work into a blade or
cutter against the direction of rotation of the blade or
cutter only.
21.
NEVER LEAVE TOOL RUNNING UNATTENDED.
TURN POWER OFF. Don't leave tool until it comes to
a complete stop.
