REDUCE THE RISK OF UNINTENTIONAL STARTS
Make sure the ON/OFF switch is in the OFF position before plugging in a power tool.
ROTATING OR MOVING PARTS
Keep hands, feet, hair, and clothing away from all moving parts to prevent injury. Never operate the
engine with covers, shrouds or guards removed.
MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE
Keep tools clean for the best and safest performance. Always follow maintenance instructions for
lubricating and when changing accessories.
KEEP WORK AREA CLEAN
Cluttered work areas and benches invite accidents.
DO NOT USE IN DANGEROUS OR HAZARDOUS ENVIRONMENTS
Do not operate equipment in dangerous or hazardous environments. Do not use power tools in damp
or wet locations nor expose them to rain. Always keep the work area well lighted. Always work in a
well ventilated area.
KEEP CHILDREN AWAY
All visitors and children should be kept a safe distance from the work area. Keep power cords
disconnected when tool is not in use.
MAKE THE WORKSHOP KID-PROOF
Make the workshops kid-proof by using padlocks, master switches and by disconnecting all power
cords.
USE THE RIGHT TOOL
Do not force a tool or an attachment to do a job that it was not designed to do.
SECURE WORK
Clamps or a vise should be used to hold work whenever practical. Keeping your hands free to operate
a power tool is safer.
DO NOT FORCE THE TOOL
A power tool will do a better job and operate more safely at the feed rate for which it was designed.
