GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
• KEEP GUARDS IN PLACE and in working order.
• REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS AND WRENCHES. Form a habit of checking to
see that keys and adjusting wrenches are removed from tool before turning it
on.
• KEEP WORK AREA CLEAN. Cluttered areas and benches invite injuries.
• 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. Always
operate tool in a well-ventilated area free of combustible materials, gasoline or
solvent vapours. If sparks come in contact with flammable vapours, they may
ignite, causing fire or explosion.
• KEEP CHILDREN AWAY. All visitors should be kept a safe distance from work
area.
• MAKE WORKSHOP KID-PROOF with padlocks, master switches, or by
removing starter keys.
• DON’T FORCE TOOL. It will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it
was designed.
• USE THE RIGHT TOOL. Don’t force tool or attachment to do a job for which it
was not designed.
• USE 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 overheating and loss of power. The Recommended
size for extension cords shows the correct size to use depending on cord
length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge.
The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord. When operating a power
tool outside, use an outdoor extension cord marked “W-A” or “W.” These
cords are rated for outdoor use and reduce the risk of electric shock.
• WEAR PROPER APPAREL. Do not wear loose clothing, gloves, neckties,
rings, bracelets, or other jewellery which may get caught in moving parts.
Nonslip footwear is recommended. Wear protective hair covering to contain
long hair. Air vents often cover moving parts and should also be avoided.
• ALWAYS USE SAFETY GLASSES. Also use face or dust mask if cutting
operation is dusty. Everyday eyeglasses only have impact resistant lenses;
they are not safety glasses.
• SECURE WORK. Use clamps or a vise to hold work when practical. It’s safer
than using your hands and it frees both hands to operate tool.
