POWER TOOL PRECAUTIONS
1. Do not use a power tool with a broken or inoperative trigger/power switch.
2. Do not allow the tool to run without load for an extended period of time, as
this will shorten its life.
3. Do not cover the air vents. Proper cooling of the motor is necessary to
ensure normal life of the tool.
4. Avoid unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is off when connecting to
the power source.
5. After making adjustments, make sure that any adjustment devices are
securely tightened.
6. Remove adjusting keys and wrenches before turning the tool on. A wrench
or a key that is left attached to a rotating part of the tool increases the risk
of personal injury.
7. Never force the tool. Excessive pressure could break the tool, resulting in
damage to your workpiece or serious personal injury. If your tool runs
smoothly under no load, but does not run smoothly under load, then
excessive pressure is being used.
8. Do not touch an operating motor. Motors can operate at high temperatures
and can cause a burn injury.
9. Only use accessories that are specifically designed for use with the tool.
Ensure the accessory is tightly installed.
10. Only use an accessory that exceeds the No Load Speed rating
(see Specifications).
