25. USE ONLY recommended accessories. Use of
incorrect or improper accessories could cause seri-
ous injury to the operator and cause damage to the
machine. If in doubt, DO NOT use it.
26. THE USE of extension cords is not recommended
for 230V equipment. It is better to arrange the
placement of your equipment and the installed
wiring to eliminate the need for an extension cord.
If an extension cord is necessary, refer to the chart
in the Grounding Instructions section to determine
the minimum gauge for the extension cord. The
extension cord must also contain a ground wire and
plug pin.
27. Wear proper clothing, DO NOT wear loose clothing,
gloves, neckties, or jewelry. These items can get
caught in the machine during operations and pull
the operator into the moving parts. Users must
wear a protective cover on their hair, if the hair is
long, to prevent it from contacting any moving parts.
28. SAVE these instructions and refer to them frequent-
ly and use them to instruct other users.

precautions are overlooked or ignored. Accidents

familiar with this machine and its operations.

ty first, as it applies to your work area. Use this
