"W-A" or "W". These cords are rated for outdoor use, and reduce the risk of electric
shock.
Replace damaged cords immediately. Use of damaged cords can lead to shocks, burns,
or electrocution.
If an extension cord is required, use a cord with the proper size of conductors in order to
prevent excessive voltage drop, loss of power, or overheating. The following table shows
the correct size to use, depending on cord length and nameplate amperage rating of the
tool. When in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. Always use UL and CSA listed
extension cords.

ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES FOR LASER LIGHTS

The laser light/laser radiation used in this system is Class III, with maximum 5 mW
and wavelengths of 400 nm-700 nm. Under normal circumstances, these lasers do not
present an optical hazard, but staring at the beam may cause flash blindness.
WARNING: Do not stare directly at the laser beam.
A hazard may exist if you deliberately stare into the beam. Please observe all of the
following safety rules:
The laser must be used and maintained in accordance with the manufacturer's
instructions.
Never aim the beam at any person or any object other than the workpiece.
The laser beam must not be deliberately aimed at any person, and must be prevented
from being directed toward the eye of any person for longer than 0.25 s.
Always ensure that the laser beam is aimed at a sturdy workpiece that does not have
reflective surfaces. Wood and rough coated surfaces are acceptable. Bright, shiny
reflective sheet steel or similar materials are not suitable for laser use, because the
reflective surface could direct the beam back at the operator.
Do not replace the laser light assembly with a different type. Repairs must be carried out
by the laser manufacturer, or by an authorized agent.
