TOOL USE AND CARE
16. Use clamps (not included) or other practical ways to secure and support the
workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the work by hand or against your body is
unstable and may lead to loss of control.
17. Do not force the tool. Use the correct tool for your application. The correct tool
will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it is designed. Do not force the
tool and do not use the tool for a purpose for which it is not intended.
18. Do not use the power tool if the Power Switch does not turn it on or off. Any
tool that cannot be controlled with the Power Switch is dangerous and must be
replaced.
19. Disconnect the Power Cord Plug from the power source before making any
adjustments, changing accessories, or storing the tool. Such preventive safety
measures reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally. Always unplug the tool
from its electrical outlet before performing any inspection, maintenance, or
cleaning procedures.
20. Store idle tools out of reach of children and other untrained persons. Tools are
dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
21. Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained tools with a sharp cutting edge are less likely to bind and are easier to
control. Do not use a damaged tool. Tag damaged tools “Do not use” until repaired.
22. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, and
any other condition that may affect the tool’s operation. If damaged, have the
tool serviced before using. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained
tools.
23. Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for your
model. Accessories that may be suitable for one tool may become hazardous when
used on another tool.
