Personal Safety

• Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use
common sense when operating a power tool.
Do not use tool while tired or under the
influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A
moment of Inattention while operating power
tools may result In serious personal Injury,
• Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or
jewelry. Contain long hair. Keep your hair,
clothing, and gloves away from moving parts.
Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be
caught In moving parts.
• Avoid accidental starting. Be sure switch is off
before plugging in. Carrying tools with your
finger on the switch or plugging in tools that
have the switch on invites accidents.
• Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before
turning the tool on. A wrench or a key that is
left attached to a rotating part of the tool may
result in personal injury.
• Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and
balance at all times. Proper footing and
balance enables better control of the tool in
unexpected situations.When necessary, use
only properly positioned, safe, platforms and
scaffolding. WORK SAFE.
• Use safety equipment. Always wear eye
protection. Everyday eyeglasses only have
impact resistant lenses, they are not safety
glasses. Dust mask, non-skid safety shoes,
hard hat, or hearing protection must be used
for appropriate conditions.
Tool Use And Care
• Use clamps or other practical way to secure
and support 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 tool. Use the correct tool for your
application. The correct tool will do the job
4
better and safer at the rate for which it is
designed.
• Do not use tool if switch does not turn it on or
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
preventative safety measures reduce the risk of
starting the tool accidentally.
• Store idle tools out of 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 tools 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.

qualified repair personnel. Service or
maintenance performed by unqualified
personnel could result in a risk of injury.
• When servicing a tool, use only identical
replacement parts. Follow instructions in the
Maintenance section of this manual. Use of
unauthorized parts or failure to follow
Maintenance Instructions may create a risk of
electric shock or injury.
