4. Blades are very sharp and are double-edged!
Wear heavy-duty leather work gloves at all times
when replacing, adjusting, or handling a blade.

recommended by the manufacturer may
result in a risk of injury to persons.
10. When servicing use only identical replacement parts.
11. Only use safety equipment that has been approved
by an appropriate standards agency. Unapproved
safety equipment may not provide adequate
protection. Eye protection must be ANSI-approved
and breathing protection must be NIOSH-approved
for the specific hazards in the work area.
12. Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use
common sense when operating a power tool. Do
not use a power tool while you are tired or under
the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication.
A moment of inattention while operating power
tools may result in serious personal injury.
13. Industrial applications must follow OSHA guidelines.

information. If unreadable or missing, contact
Harbor Freight Tools for a replacement.

begin work before turning on the tool.

physician(s) before use. Electromagnetic fields in
