General safety instructions
WARNING.
Failure to follow all instructions listed below, may
result in electric shock, fire and/or serious personal
injury.
Save these instructions.
1. Keep guards in place and in working order.
2. Remove adjusting keys and wrenches.
3. Keep work area clean.Cluttered areas and benches
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
safe distance from work area.
6. Make the workshop kid proof with padlocks,
master switches, or by removing starter keys.
7. Don’t force the tool. It will do the job better and
safer at the rate for which it was designed.
8. Use the right tool. Don’t force tool or attachment
to do a job for which it was not designed.
9. Use the 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. The table on page 7 of this manual
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.
10. Wear proper apparel. Do not wear loose
clothing, gloves, neckties, rings, bracelets, or
other jewelry which may get caught in moving
parts. Nonslip footwear is recommended.
Wear protective hair covering to contain long
hair.
11. Always use safety glasses. Also use face or
dust mask if cutting operating 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 the tool.
13. Don’t overreach. Keep proper footing and
balance at all times.
