SAFTEY SYMBOLS
The purpose of safety symbols is to attract your attention to possible dangers.
The safety symbols and the explanations with them deserve your careful attention
and understanding. The symbol warnings do not, by themselves, eliminate any
danger. The instructions and warning they give are no substitutes for proper
accident prevention measures.
WARNING:
Be sure to read and understand all safety instructions in this
manual, including all safety alert symbols such as
“DANGER,”
“WARNING”
and
“CAUTION,”
before using this tool. Failure to following all instructions listed
below may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious personal injury.

and a full-face shield when needed. We recommend a Wide Vi-
sion Safety Mask for use over eyeglasses or standard safety
