Safety Instructions For Power Tools
9. USE PROPER EXTENSION CORD. Make
sure your extension cord is in good condi-
tion. Conductor size should be in accor-
dance with the chart below. The amperage
rating should be listed on the motor or tool
nameplate. An undersized cord will cause
a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of
power and overheating. Your extension
cord must also contain a ground wire and
plug pin. Always repair or replace exten-
sion cords if they become damaged.

10. WEAR PROPER APPAREL. Do not wear
loose clothing, gloves, neckties, rings,
bracelets, or other jewelry which may get
caught in moving parts. Non-slip footwear
is recommended. Wear protective hair cov-
ering to contain long hair.
11. ALWAYS USE SAFETY GLASSES. Also
use face or dust mask if cutting operation is
dusty. Everyday eyeglasses only have impact
resistant lenses, they are NOT safety glasses.
12. SECURE WORK. Use clamps or a vise to hold
work when practical. It's safer than using your
hand and frees both hands to operate tool.
13. DO NOT OVER-REACH. Keep proper
footing and balance at all times.
14. MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE. Keep
tools sharp and clean for best and safest
performance. Follow instructions for lubri-
cating and changing accessories.
15. USE RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES.
Consult the owner's manual for recom-
mended accessories. The use of improper
accessories may cause risk of injury.

16. REDUCE THE RISK OF UNINTENTION-
AL STARTING. On machines with mag-
netic contact starting switches there is a
risk of starting if the machine is bumped
or jarred. Always disconnect from power
source before adjusting or servicing.
Make sure switch is in OFF position before
reconnecting.
17. MANY WOODWORKING TOOLS CAN
"KICKBACK" THE WORKPIECE toward
the operator if not handled properly. Know
what conditions can create "kickback" and
know how to avoid them.
18. CHECK DAMAGED PARTS. Before fur-
ther 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 func-
tion. Check for alignment of moving 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.
19. NEVER LEAVE TOOL RUNNING UNAT-
TENDED. TURN POWER OFF. Do not
leave tool until it comes to a complete
stop.
20. NEVER OPERATE A MACHINE WHEN
TIRED, OR UNDER THE INFLUENCE
OF DRUGS OR ALCOHOL. Full mental
alertness is required at all times when
running a machine.
21. NEVER ALLOW UNTRAINED PERSON-
NEL TO OPERATE THE MACHINE
WHILE UNSUPERVISED. Make sure any
instructions you give in regards to
machine operation are approved, correct,
safe, and clearly understood.
22. IF AT ANY TIME YOU ARE EXPERI-
ENCING DIFFICULTIES performing the
intended operation, stop using the
machine! Then contact our service
department or ask a qualified expert how
the operation should be performed.
