SECTION 1: SAFETY

For Your Own Safety Read Instruction Manual
Before Operating This Equipment
The purpose of safety symbols is to attract your attention to possible hazard-
ous conditions. This manual uses a series of symbols and signal words which
are intended to convey the level of importance of the safety messages. The
progression of symbols is described below. Remember that safety messages by
themselves do not eliminate danger and are not a substitute for proper accident
prevention measures.
NOTICE

Safety Instructions for Power Tools

OWNER'S MANUAL. Read and under-
stand this owner's manual BEFORE using
machine.
TRAINED OPERATORS ONLY. Untrained
operators have a higher risk of being hurt
or killed. Only allow trained/supervised
people to use this power tool. When tool
is not being used, disconnect power, and
store in out-of-reach location to prevent
unauthorized use—especially around
children. Make workshop kid proof!
DANGEROUS ENVIRONMENTS. Do not
use tools in areas that are wet, cluttered,
or have poor lighting. Operating tools in
these areas greatly increases risk of acci-
dents and injury.

This symbol is used to alert the user to useful infor-
mation about proper operation of the equipment.
MENTAL ALERTNESS REQUIRED. Full
mental alertness is required for safe oper-
ation of power tools. Never operate under
the influence of drugs or alcohol, when
tired, or when distracted.
DISCONNECT POWER FIRST. Always
disconnect tool from power supply
BEFORE making adjustments, chang-
ing tooling, or servicing machine. This
prevents an injury risk from unintended
startup or contact with live electrical com-
ponents.
EYE PROTECTION. Always wear ANSI-
approved safety glasses or a face shield
when operating or observing machinery to
reduce the risk of eye injury or blindness
from flying particles. Everyday eyeglasses
are not approved safety glasses.
