• Remove any adjusting keys or wrenches before turning the power tool on. A wrench or key that is left attached to a rotating part of the tool may result in personal injury. • Do not overreach. Maintain proper footing and balance at all times. Loss of balance can cause an injury in an unexpected situation.
• Feed the work piece in the correct direction and speed. Feed the work piece into a blade, cutter, or abrasive surface against the direction of the cutting tool’s direction of rotation only. Incorrectly feeding the work piece in the same direction may cause the work piece to be thrown out at high speed.
