SECURE WORK. Use clamps or a vise to hold work. It's safer than using your
hand and it frees both hands to operate tool.

MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE. Keep tools sharp at all times, and clean for best
and safest performance. Follow instructions for lubricating and changing ac-
cessories.
16. DISCONNECT TOOLS. When not in use, before servicing, or when changing at-
tachments, blades, bits, cutters, etc., all tools should be disconnected.
17. REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS AND WRENCHES. Form habit of checking to see
that keys and adjusting wrenches are removed from tool before turning it on.
18. AVOID ACCIDENTAL STARTING. Don't carry plugged-in tools with finger on
switch. Be sure switch is off when plugging in.

extension cords suitable for use outdoors. Outdoor approved cords are marked
with the suffix W-A, for example -- SJTW-A or SJOW-A.

erate tool when you are tired.
27. 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
operate properly and perform its intended function. Check for alignment of mov-
ing parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, mounting, and any other
conditions that may affect its operation. A guard or other part that is damaged
should be properly repaired or replaced by an authorized service center unless
indicated elsewhere in this instruction manual.
