SERVICE
[]
[] Tool service must be performed only by qualified
repair personnel.
Service or maintenance performed
by unqualified personnel may result in a risk of injury.
When servicing
a tool, use only identical replace-
merit 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 shock or injury.
[] Hold tool by insulated gripping
surfaces
when
performing
an operation
where the cutting
tool may
contact
hidden wiring
or its own cord. Contact with
a "live" wire will make exposed metal parts of the cut-
ting tool "live" and shock the operator.
[] Know your power tool. Read operator's
manual
carefully.
Learn its applications
and limitations,
as
well as the specific
potential
hazards related to this
tool. Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric
shock, fire, or serious injury.
[] Always wear safety glasses. Everyday eyeglasses
have only impact-resistant
lenses; they are NOT
safety glasses. Following this rule will reduce the risk
of serious personal injury.
[] Protect your lungs. Wear a face or dust mask if the
operation
is dusty. Following this rule will reduce the
risk of serious personal injury.
[] Protect your hearing. Wear hearing protection
dur-
ing extended
periods
of operation.
Following this rule
will reduce the risk of serious personal injury.
[] Inspect tool cords periodically
and, if damaged,
have repaired at your nearest Authorized
Service
Center. Constantly
stay aware of cord location.
Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock
or fire.
[] Check damaged
parts. Before further use of the
tool, a guard or other part that is damaged
should
be carefully
checked
to determine
that it will op-
erate properly
and perform
its intended
function.
Check for alignment
of moving parts, binding of
moving parts, breakage
of parts, mounting,
and
any other conditions
that may affect its opera-
tion. A guard or other part that is damaged
should
be properly
repaired or replaced
by an authorized
service
center. Following this rule will reduce the risk
of shock, fire, or serious injury.
[] Make sure your extension
cord is in good condition.
When using an extension
cord, be sure to use one
heavy enough to carry the current your product
will
draw. A wire gauge size (A.W.G.) of at least 14 is
recommended
for an extension
cord 50 feet or less
in length. A cord exceeding
100 feet is not recom-
mended. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge.
The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the
cord. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line volt-
age resulting in loss of power and overheating.
[] Inspect for and remove all nails from lumber before
using this tool. Following this rule will reduce the risk
of serious personal injury.
[] Save these instructions. Refer to them frequently and
use them to instruct others who may use this tool. If
you loan someone this tool, loan them these instruc-
tions also.
_1_ WARNING:
Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction
activities
contains chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive
harm. Some examples of these
chemicals are:
• lead from lead-based paints,
crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, and
arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated
lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure
to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust
masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic
particles.
