Personal Protective Equipment:
Operating or servicing this item
may expose the user to flying debris,
dust, smoke, dangerous chemicals,
or loud noises. These hazards can
result in eye injury, blindness, long-
term respiratory damage, poisoning,
cancer, reproductive harm or hearing
loss. Reduce your risks from these
hazards by wearing approved eye
protection, respirator, gloves, or
hearing protection.
Safe Environment: Operating
electrically powered equipment in
a wet environment may result in
electrocution; operating near highly
flammable materials may result in
a fire or explosion. Only operate this
item in a dry location that is free
from flammable materials.
Unattended Operation: Electrically
powered equipment that is left
unattended while running cannot
be controlled and is dangerous to
bystanders. Always turn the power
OFF before walking away.
Guards/Covers: Accidental contact
with moving parts during operation
may cause severe entanglement,
impact, cutting, or crushing injuries.
Reduce this risk by keeping any
included guards/covers/doors
installed, fully functional, and
positioned for maximum protection.
Difficult Operations: Attempting
difficult operations with which you
are unfamiliar increases the risk of
injury. If you experience difficulties
performing the intended operation,
STOP! Seek an alternative method
to accomplish the same task, ask a
qualified expert how the operation
should be performed, or contact our
Technical Support for assistance.
Chuck Keys or Adjusting Tools: Tools
used to adjust spindles, chucks,
or any moving/rotating parts will
become dangerous projectiles if left
in place when the machine is started.
Reduce this risk by developing the
habit of always removing these tools
immediately after using them.
Secure Workpiece/Tooling: Loose
workpieces, cutting tools, or rotating
spindles can become dangerous
projectiles if not secured or if they
hit another object during operation.
Reduce the risk of this hazard by
verifying that all fastening devices
are properly secured and items
attached to spindles have enough
clearance to safely rotate.
Disconnect Power: Adjusting or
servicing electrically powered
equipment while it is connected to
the power source greatly increases
the risk of injury from accidental
startup. Always disconnect power
BEFORE any service or adjustments,
including changing blades or other
tooling.
Electrical Connection: With
electically powered equipment,
improper connections to the power
source may result in electrocution or
fire. Always adhere to all electrical
requirements and applicable codes
when connecting to the power
source. Have all work inspected by a
qualified electrician to minimize risk
of electrocution or fire.
Mental Alertness: Operating this
item with reduced mental alertness
increases the risk of accidental
injury. Do not let a temporary
influence or distraction lead to a
permanent disability! Never operate
when under the influence of drugs/
alcohol, when tired, or otherwise
distracted.
Health Hazards: Certain cutting
fluids and lubricants, or dust/
smoke created when cutting,
may contain chemicals known to
the State of California to cause
cancer, respiratory problems, birth
defects, or other reproductive
harm. Minimize exposure to these
chemicals by wearing approved
personal protective equipment and
operating in a well ventilated area.
Work Area: Clutter and dark
shadows increase the risk of
accidental injury. Only operate this
item in a clean, non-glaring, and
well-lighted work area.
