Additional Safety Rules for Laminate
Trimmer
• Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, because
the cutter may contact its own cord. Cutting a "live" wire may
make exposed metal parts of the power tool "live" and shock the
operator.
• Use clamps or another practical way to secure and support
the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the work by hand
or against your body leaves it unstable and may lead to loss of
control.
• Accessories must be rated for at least the speed
recommended on the tool warning label. Accessories running
over rated speed can fly apart and cause injury. Accessory ratings
must always be above the tool speed as shown on tool nameplate.
• DO NOT CUT METAL.
• Keep handles and gripping surfaces dry, clean, and free
from oil and grease. This will enable better control of the tool.
• Maintain firm grip with both hands on laminate trimmer to
resist starting torque.
• Keep hands away from cutting area. Never reach under
the workpiece for any reason. Keep the laminate trimmer
base firmly in contact with the workpiece when cutting. These
precautions will reduce the risk of personal injury.
• Never run the motor unit when it is not inserted into the
base. The motor is not designed to be handheld.
• Keep cutting pressure constant. Do not overload motor.
• Check to see that the cord will not snag or impede the
trimming operation.
• Use sharp bits. Dull bits may cause the laminate trimmer to
swerve or stall under pressure.
• Be sure that the bit is clear of the workpiece before starting
the motor. If the bit is in contact with the workpiece when the
motor starts, it could make the laminate trimmer jump, causing
damage or injury.
• ALWAYS disconnect tool from power source before making
adjustments or changing bits.
• Keep hands clear of bit when motor is running to prevent
personal injury.
• NEVER touch the bit immediately after use. It may be
extremely hot.
• Provide clearance under workpiece for bit when through-
cutting.
• Tighten collet nut securely with provided wrench (17.2 mm)
to prevent the bit from slipping.
• Never tighten collet nut without a bit.
• Do not use bits with a diameter in excess of 1" (25.4 mm) in
this tool.
• Always use bits with a shank diameter of 1/4" (6.4 mm) which
corresponds to the size of the collet in your tool.
• Not recommended for use in a router table.
• Avoid climb-cutting (cutting in direction opposite than
shown in Figure 9). Climb-cutting increases the chance for
loss of control resulting in possible injury. When climb-cutting
is required (backing around a corner), exercise extreme caution
to maintain control of trimmer. Make smaller cuts and remove
minimal material with each pass.
• Be sure that the motor has stopped completely before you
lay the laminate trimmer down. If the bit head is still spinning
when the tool is laid down, it could cause injury or damage.
• Do not press spindle lock button while the motor is running.
Doing so can damage the spindle lock.
