designed.
USE THE RIGHT TOOL
Don't force a small tool or attachment
to do the job of a
heavy duty tool. Don't used tool for purpose not intend-
ed-for
example,
don't use a circular saw for cutting tree
limbs or logs.
SECURE WORK
Use clamps or a vise to hold work when practical. It's safer
than using your hand and it frees both hands to operate
the tool.
NEVER LEAVE TOOL RUNNING UNATTENDED
Turn power off. Don't leave tool until it comes to a com-
plete stop.

mance.
