8GGIFM<;FG Untrained operators
can be seriously hurt by machinery. Only
allow trained or properly supervised people
to use machine. When machine is not being
used, disconnect power, remove switch keys,
or lock-out machine to prevent unauthorized
use—especially around children. Make
workshop kid proof!
FECPLJ<8J@EK Only use machine for
its intended purpose. Never modify or alter
machine for a purpose not intended by the
manufacturer or serious injury may result!
LJ Consult
this owner’s manual or the manufacturer for
recommended accessories. Using improper
accessories will increase the risk of serious
injury.
:?@C;I Keep children and
bystanders a safe distance away from work
area. Stop using machine if children or
bystanders become a distraction.
IKFFCJ% Never leave
adjustment tools, chuck keys, wrenches, etc.
in or on machine—especially near moving
parts. Verify removal before starting!
J<:LI@E>NFIBG@<:<% When required, use
clamps or vises to secure workpiece. A secured
workpiece protects hands and frees both of
them to operate the machine.
=<<;;@I<:K@FE% Unless otherwise noted, feed
work against the rotation of blades or cutters.
Feeding in the same direction of rotation may
pull your hand into the cut.
>L8I;J:FM Guards and covers can
protect you from accidental contact with
moving parts or flying debris. Make sure
they are properly installed, undamaged, and
working correctly before using machine.
JK89C Unexpected movement during
operations greatly increases the risk of injury
and loss of control. Verify machines are
stable/secure and mobile bases (if used) are
locked before starting.
=FI:@E>D8:?@E Do not force machine. It
will do the job safer and better at the rate for
which it was designed.
8NBN8I;GFJ@K@FEJ% Keep proper footing and
balance at all times when operating machine.
Do not overreach! Avoid awkward hand
positions that make workpiece control difficult
or increase the risk of accidental injury.
LE8KK Never leave machine
running while unattended. Turn machine off
and ensure all moving parts completely stop
before walking away.
D8@EK8@EN@K?:8I<% Follow all maintenance
instructions and lubrication schedules to
keep machine in good working condition. An
improperly maintained machine may increase
the risk of serious injury.
:?<:B;8D8><;G8IKJ% Regularly inspect
machine for damaged parts, loose bolts,
mis-adjusted or mis-aligned parts, binding,
or any other conditions that may affect safe
operation. Always repair or replace damaged
parts, wires, cords, or plugs before operating
machine.
D8@EK8@EGFNWhen disconnecting
cord-connected machines from power, grab
and pull the plug—NOT the cord. Pulling the
cord may damage the wires inside. Do not
handle the cord/plug with wet hands. Avoid
cord damage by keeping it away from heated
surfaces, high traffic areas, harsh chemicals,
and wet or damp locations.
