n) Always support the workpiece with the fence or starter pin. Only use the starter pin with router bits that have a guide bearing.
o) When using the fence, always position the bit guard over the router bit and as close to the workpiece surface as possible.
p) Never remove a large quantity of stock in one cut. Make several progressively deeper cuts, adjusting the router bit or fence position between cuts.
q) Keep hands away from the rotating bit and your body out of the path of the cut. Always use the bit guard. Use push sticks, push blocks, and feather boards whenever
possible, especially when routing narrow workpieces. Turn off the router before clearing parts or scrap.
r) Avoid awkward hand positions, where a sudden slip could cause contact with the rotating bit. Never overreach.
s) Avoid routing small parts. Rout the profile on a large workpiece and then cut the part to final size from the large workpiece.
If you must rout a small part, build an appropriate jig or hold the part with a wood handscrew clamp.
t) Make sure the workpiece is clear of the bit and the bit comes to a complete stop before adjusting the workpiece position.
Never start the router with the workpiece in contact with the bit.
u) Avoid kickbacks. Kickbacks occur when the workpiece binds or lifts off the table while being routed, causing it to be thrown back toward the operator.
To avoid kickbacks and potential injury, use sharp bits, keep the machine aligned and properly maintained, and adequately support the workpiece.
Do not attempt to rout workpieces that are twisted, warped, or bowed, or that have loose knots.
v) Feed the workpiece against (not with) the bit rotation.
The bit can grab a workpiece fed with the rotation of the bit, violently eject it from the router table, and can cause your hand to contact the bit.
w) Never trap a workpiece between the bit and the fence. When forming a profile on the straight edge of a workpiece, always rout with
the bit housed in the fence and the edge of the workpiece against the fence.
x) Whenever routing a profile in which material is not being removed below a protruding portion of the bit, or a part of the profile is trapped between cutters above and below,
take extra precautions to prevent the workpiece from lifting off the table surface during routing. A workpiece lifting off the table can kick back and cause serious personal injury.
When routing these profiles, it is especially important to use straight, flat stock and avoid warped, bowed, or twisted stock.
y) Periodically check the tightness of fasteners and adjustment and locking knobs and the alignment of the fence.
Loose fasteners and knobs and a misaligned fence may cause personal injury.
z) This router lift is designed for a specific application. Do not modify and/or use it for any other application.
If you have questions relative to the application of the lift, DO NOT use it until you have contacted Kreg Tool Company and have been advised accordingly.
Guidelines for extension cord use
Extension cords are only to be used for temporary purposes. They do not replace the need for installation of outlets and proper wiring where necessary.
In the shop and on construction sites:
1. Extension cords with an equipment grounding conductor must be used at all times.
2. Extension cords must be protected from damage, and not run through doorways or windows where the doors or windows can close, causing damage to the cord.
3. Extension cords must be a minimum of 16 AWG and be rated for the equipment in use.
4. Extension cords must be periodically inspected to ensure that the insulation and conductivity of the wires are not compromised.
5. Extension cords should not be run through water or allowed to have connections that may be exposed to accumulated water.

WARNING
Dust created by sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities may contain chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer
and birth defect or other reproductive harm. Examples of these chemicals are:
•Lead from lead-based paints
•Crystalline silica from bricks, cement, and other masonry products
•Arsenic and chromium from chemically treated lumber
Your risk from exposure to these chemicals depends on how often you do this type of work. To reduce exposure, work in a well-ventilated
area with approved safety equipment, such as a dust mask specifically designed to filter out microscopic particles.
