WARNING
POWER TOOL SAFETY
Read all safety warnings and instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and
instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
WORK AREA SAFETY
1. Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas
invite accidents.
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 children and bystanders away while operating a power tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose control.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
1. Double insulated tools are equipped with a polarized plug (one blade is
wider than the other). This plug will only fit into a polarized plug one way.
2. If the plug does not fit into the outlet properly, reverse the plug. If it still
does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install a polarized outlet. Do
not alter the plug in any way. Double insulation eliminates the need for
the three-pronged grounded power cord and grounded power supply
system.
3. Avoid contact between the operator’s body and grounded surfaces such
as pipes, radiators, ranges, and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of
electric shock if the operator’s body is grounded.
4. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering the
power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
5. Do not abuse the cord. Do not use the power cord to carry the tool or
to pull the plug out of the outlet. Keep the power cord away from heat,
oil, sharp edges, and moving parts. Replace a damaged power cord
immediately. A damaged power cord increases the risk of electric shock.
6. When operating a power tool outdoors, use an outdoor-rated extension
cord type
7. “W-A” or “W”. These cords are rated for outdoor use and they reduce the
risk of electric shock.
PERSONAL SAFETY
1. Stay alert, be aware of the surroundings, and use common sense when
operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while tired or under the
influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment of inattention while
operating a power tool may result in serious personal injury.
2. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry.
3. Contain long hair. Keep hair, clothing, and gloves away from moving
parts. Loose clothing, jewelry, or long hair can get caught in moving parts.
4. Avoid accidental start-ups. Verify that the switch is in the OFF position
before plugging in the tool. Carrying a power tool with a finger on the
switch or plugging in a tool that has the switch in the ON position invites
accidents.
5. Remove adjusting keys and wrenches before turning the tool ON. A
wrench or key that is left attached to a rotating part of the tool may result
in personal injury.
6. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Proper
footing and balance allows the operator to maintain better control of the
tool in unexpected situations.
7. Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection.
8. Use a dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, a hardhat, or hearing protection
when appropriate
USE AND CARE OF POWER TOOLS
1. Use clamps or another practical means to secure and support the
workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the work in a hand or against the
body is not stable, and may lead to loss of control.
2. Do not force the tool. Use the correct tool for the application. The correct
tool will do the job better and safer when used at the rate that it was
designed to work at.
3. Do not use a power tool if it cannot be turned ON or OFF using the power
switch. A tool that cannot be controlled using the switch is dangerous,
and must be repaired.
4. Disconnect the plug from the outlet before making any adjustments,
changing accessories, or storing the tool. Such preventive safety
measures reduce the risk of accidental start-ups.
5. When power tools are not in use, store them out of the reach of children
or untrained persons. Tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained
users.
6. Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind,
and are easier to control.
7. Inspect the tool for misalignment or binding of moving parts, broken
parts, and any other condition that may affect the operation of the tool. If
it is damaged, have the tool serviced before using it. Many accidents are
caused by poorly maintained tools.
8. Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for this
model. Accessories that are suitable for one tool may become hazardous
when used with another tool.
SERVICE
1. Tool servicing must be performed by qualified personnel. Service or
maintenance performed by non-qualified personnel could result in a risk
of injury.
2. When servicing a tool, use only identical replacement parts. Follow
the instructions in the Maintenance section of this Manual. The use of
unauthorized parts or failure to follow the instructions in the Maintenance
section of this Manual may create a risk of electric shock or injury.
SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES
The rating plate on the tool shows certain safety symbols. These symbols
represent important safety information regarding the use of the tool and must
be followed:
Hearing, eye and breathing protection must be worn
Double insulated for extra protection
WARNING
For your safety, do not plug the engraving tool into the power source or attempt
to operate the tool until you have read and understood these Operating
Instructions.
Always use safety glasses, ear protection and a dust mask when operating the
engraving tool. Using these safety items will protect you against flying particles
during the engraving process.
Apply only light pressure to the engraving tool during operation. Too much
pressure may damage the surface being engraved and damage the tip of the
engraving tool.
Disconnect the plug from the power source before making any adjustments,
changing accessories or storing the tool.
Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord to carry the tools or pull the plug
from an outlet. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts.
Replace damaged cords immediately.
