TOOL USE AND CARE
WARNING:
Be sure to read, understand,
and follow all safety rules and
operating
instructions
in this manual before using this tool. Failure to do so may
result in electric shock, fire, and/or serious personal injury.
•
Always
use clamps or other practical ways to support and secure the
workpiece
to a stable platform.
Holding the work by hand or against your
body is unstable and may lead to loss of control.
•
Do not force the tool.
Use the correct tool for your application.
The correct
tool will do the job better and more safely at the rate for which is designed.
Do not use the tool if the switch does not turn it "ON" and "OFF." Any tool
that cannot
be controlled
with the switch is dangerous
and must be repaired.
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.
Never leave the tool running. Always turn it off. Do not leave the tool until it
comes to a complete
stop.
*
Store
idle tools
out of the reach of children
and other untrained
persons.
Tools are dangerous
in the hands of untrained
users.
•
Maintain
tools with care. Keep cutting
tools sharp and clean.
Properly
maintained
tools with sharp cutting
edges are less likely to bind and are
easier to control.
Check for misalignment
or binding of moving parts, breakage
of parts, and
any other condition
that may affect the tool's operation.
If damaged,
have the
tool serviced
before using. Many accidents
are caused by poorly maintained
tools.
Use only accessories
that are recommended
by the manufacturer
for your
model. Accessories
that may be suitable
for one tool may become
hazardous
when used on another tool.

WARNING:
When using power tools, basic safety precautions
should always
