Do not wear loose clothing, gloves, neckties or jewelry (rings, wristwatches) to get
caught in moving parts. NONSLIP footwear is recommended. Wear protective hair
covering to contain long hair. Roll long sleeves above the elbow.
USE SAFETY GOGGLES (HEAD PROTECTION).
Wear safety goggles (must comply with ANSI Z87.1) at all times. "Everyday" eye-
glasses only have impact resistant lens, they are NOT safety glasses. Also, use face
or dust mask if cutting operation is dusty, and ear protectors (plugs or muffs) during
extended periods of operation.
DON'T OVERREACH.
Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE.
Keep tools sharp and clean for best and safest performance. Follow instructions for
lubricating and changing accessories.
DISCONNECT TOOLS.
Before servicing: Disconnect tool from power source before changing accessories
such as cutters, etc.
AVOID ACCIDENTAL STARTING.
Make sure the switch is in the "OFF" position before plugging in the power cord.
USE RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES.
Consult the owner's manual for recommended accessories. Follow the instructions
that accompany the accessories. The use of improper accessories may cause
hazards.
NEVER STAND ON TOOL.
Serious injury could occur if the tool is tipped or if the cutting tool is accidentally
contacted. Do not store materials above or near the tool such that it is necessary to
stand on the tool to reach them.
CHECK DAMAGED PARTS.
Before further use of the tool, a guard or any other part of the tool is damaged, should
be carefully checked to ensure that it will operate properly and perform as its intended
function. Check for alignment of moving parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of
parts, mounting, and any other conditions that may affect its operation. A guard or
other part that is damaged should be properly repaired or replaced.
DIRECTION OF FEED.
Feed work into a blade of cutter against the direction of rotation of the blade or cutter
only.
