get caught in moving parts. Roll long sleeves above the elbow. Rubber gloves and
non-skid footwear are recommended when working outdoors.

Make sure the switch is “OFF” before plugging

switch “ON” invites accidents.
4. REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS OR WRENCHES BEFORE TURNING ON THE
A wrench or a key that is left attached to a rotating part of the tool could
result in personal injury.
Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Proper
footing and balance enables better control of the tool in unexpected situations.

4. DISCONNECT THE 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.
5. KEEP CUTTING TOOLS SHARP AND CLEAN.
Properly maintained tools, with
sharp cutting edges, are less likely to bind and easier to control. When mounting
saw blades be certain that the arrow on the blade matches the direction of the ar-
row marked on the tool and that the teeth are also pointing in the same direction.
6. INSPECT THE GUARDS BEFORE USING A TOOL. KEEP GUARDS IN PLACE
and in working order. Never operate the tool with any guard or cover removed.
Make sure all guards are operating properly before each use.
