Safety Warnings
1.
Hold power tools by insulated gripping
surfaces when performing an operation
where the cutting tool may contact hidden
wiring or its own cord.
Contact with a
″live″ wire will make exposed metal parts
of the tool ″live″ and shock the operator.
2.
Take caution as some woods contain
preservatives such as copper
chromium arsenate (
CC
A) which can
be toxic
. When cutting these materials
extra care should be taken to avoid
inhalation and minimize skin contact.
3.
Exposure to aluminum oxide (a dust
generated from material removing processes)
can result in eye, skin, and respiratory
irritation. Always use a NIOSH (National
Institute for Occupational Safety and Health)
approved respirator and ANSI approved
safety goggles. Avoid skin exposure. Proper
ventilation in the work area is required.
4.
Maintain labels and nameplates on the tool.
These carry important safety information.
If
unreadable or missing, contact
Harbor Freight Tools for a
replacement.
5.
Avoid unintentional starting.
Prepare to begin work before
turning on the tool.
6.
Do not lay the tool down until it has come to
a complete stop. Moving parts can grab the
surface and pull the tool out of your control.
7.
When using a handheld power tool,
maintain a firm grip on the tool with
both hands to resist starting torque.
8.
Do not leave the tool unattended when
it is plugged into an electrical outlet

Turn off the tool, and
unplug it from
its electrical outlet
