changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the
risk of starting the power tool accidentally.

unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power
tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

of parts and any other condition that may affect the power tools operation. If damaged,
have the power tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained
power tools.

edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
