IO.
Dress properly.
Do
not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Contain long hair. Keep
your hair, clothing, and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry
or long hair can be caught
in
moving parts.
11. Avoid accidental starting. Be sure switch is off before plugging in. Carrying
tools
with your finger on the switch or plugging in tools that have the switch
o n invites accidents.
12.
Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before turning the tool on. A wrench
or a key that is left attached t o a rotating part of the tool may result in per-
sonal injury.
13. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Proper footing
and balance enables better control of the tool
in
unexpected situations.
14.
Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Dust mask, non-skid
safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection must be used for appropriate
conditions.
Tool Use and Care
15.
Use clamps or other practical way t o secure and support the workpiece t o
a stable platform. Holding the work by hand or against your body is unstable
and may lead t o loss of control.
16.
Do not force tool. Use the correct tool for your application. The correct tool
will
do the job better and safer at the rate for which
it
is designed.
17. Do
not use tool if switch does not turn
it
on or off. Any tool that cannot
be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
18. Disconnect the plug from the power source before making any adjustments,
changing accessories, or storing the tool. Such preventive safety measures
reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally.
19. Store idle tools out of reach of children and other untrained persons. Tools
are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
20.
Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained tools,
with
sharp cutting edges are less likely t o bind and are easier
t o control.
21.
Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, and
any other condition that may affect the tools operation. If damaged, have
the tool serviced before using. Many accidents are caused by poorly main-
tained tools.
22.
Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for your
model. Accessories that may be suitable for one tool, may become hazardous
when used on another tool.
Service
23. Tool service must be performed only by qualified repair personnel. Service
or maintenance performed by unqualified personnel could result in a risk of
injury.
24. When servicing a tool, use only identical replacement parts. Follow instruc-
tions in the Maintenance section of this manual. Use of unauthorized parts
or failure t o follow Maintenance Instructions may create a risk
of
electric shock
or injury.
