General safety instructions

Read and become familiar with this entire instructions

manual. Learn the tool`s applications, limitations and

possible hazards.

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 drill

press es invite accidents.

4. DON'T USE IN 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 in

safe distance from work area.

6. MAKE 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 1

shows the correct size to use depending on cord

length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use

the next heavier gage. The smaller the gage number,

the heavier the cord.

Exception No. 1: The reference to the table and the

table itself may be omitted if a statement indicating

the appropriate gage and length is incorporated into

the instruction.

Exception No. 2: The information regarding

extension cords need not be provided for a

permanently connected tool.

10. WEAR PROPER APPAREL. Do not wear loose

clothing, gloves, neckties, rings, bracelets, or other

jewelry which may get caught in moving parts.

Non-slip footwear is recommended.

Wear protective hair covering to contain long hair.

Exception: The reference to gloves may be omitted

from the instructions for a grinder.

11. ALWAYS USE SAFETY GLASSES. Also use 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 work

when practical. It's safer than using your hand and it

frees both hands to operate tool.

13. DON'T OVERREACH. Keep proper footing and

balance at all times.

14. MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE. Keep tools sharp

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

align ment 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
