GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING! Read and understand all instructions. Failure to follow
all instructions listed below, may result in electric shock, fire and/or
serious personal injury.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
WORk AREA
1. keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered benches and dark
areas invite accidents.
2. Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the
presence of flammable liquids, gases, or dust. Power tools create
sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
3. keep bystanders, children, and visitors away while operating a
power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
1. Double insulated tools are equipped with a polarized plug (one blade
is wider than the other.) This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only
one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If
it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install a polarized outlet.
Do not change the plug in any way. Double insulation
need for the three wire grounded power cord and grounded power supply
system.
2. Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces such as pipes,
radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of
electric shock if your body is grounded.
3. Don't expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a
power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
4. Handle the cord carefully. Never use the cord to carry the tools or
pull the plug from an outlet. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges
or moving parts. Replace damaged cords immediately. Damaged cords
increase the risk of electric shock.
5. W hen operating a power tool outside, use an outdoor extension
cord marked "w-a" or "w". These cords are rated for outdoor use and
reduce the risk of electric shock.
PERSONAL SAFETY
1. Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when
operating a power tool. Do not use tools when tired or under the
influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment of inattention while
operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.

GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
2. 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.
3. 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 on invites accidents.
4. Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before turning the tool on. A
wrench or a key that is left attached to a rotating part of the tool may result
in personal injury.
5. Do not overreach. keep proper footing and balance at all times.
Proper footing and balance enables better control of the tool in
unexpected situations.
6. 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
1. Use clamps or other practical way to secure and support the
workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the work by hand or against
your body is unstable and may lead to loss of control.
2. Do not force tool. Use the correct tool for your application. The
correct tool will do the job better and safer at the rate in which it is
designed.
3. 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.
4. 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.
5. Store idle tools out of reach of children and other untrained
persons. Tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
6. Maintain tools with care. keep cutting ACCESSORIES sharp and
clean. Properly maintained tools, with sharp cutting edges are less likely
to bind and are easier to control.
7. 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 maintained tools.
8. 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 or model.
9. Adjust the cutting depth to the thickness of the workpiece. Less than
a full tooth of the blade teeth should be visible below the workpiece.
