POWER TOOL SAFETY
GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING
THIS POWER TOOL
Safety is a combination of common sense, staying alert and
knowing how to use your power tool.
WARNING
To avoid mistakes that could cause serious
injury, do not plug the tool in until you have read and
understood the following.
1. READ and become familiar with the entire
Operator's Manual. LEARN the tool's application,
limitations and possible hazards.
2. KEEP GUARDS IN PLACE and in working order.
3. REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS AND WRENCHES. Form
the habit of checking to see that keys and adjusting
wrenches are removed from the tool before turning ON.
4. KEEP WORK AREA CLEAN. Cluttered areas and
benches invite accidents.
5. DO NOT USE IN DANGEROUS ENVIRONMENTS. Do
not use power tools in damp locations, or expose them to
rain or snow. Keep work area well lit.
6. KEEP CHILDREN AWAY. All visitors and bystanders
should be kept a safe distance from work area.
7. MAKE WORKSHOP CHILD PROOF with padlocks,
master switches or by removing starter keys.
8. DO NOT FORCE THE TOOL. It will do the job better and
safer at the rate for which it was designed.
9. USE THE RIGHT TOOL. Do not force the tool or an
attachment to do a job for which it was not designed.
10. USE PROPER EXTENSION CORDS. Make sure your
extension cord in good condition. When using an extension
cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current
your product will draw. An undersized cord will result in a
drop in line voltage and in loss of power which will cause
the tool to overheat. The table on page 4 shows the
correct size to use depending on cord length and nameplate
ampere rating. If In doubt, use the next heavier gauge.
The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.
11. WEAR PROPER APPAREL. Do not wear loose clothing,
gloves, necktie, rings, bracelets or other jewelry which
may get caught in moving pads. Nonslip footwear is
recommended. Wear protective hair covering to contain
long hair.
12. ALWAYS WEAR EYE PROTECTION. Any power
tool can throw foreign objects into the eyes and
could cause permanent eye damage. ALWAYS
wear Safety Goggles (not glasses) that comply
with ANSI Safety standard Z87.1. Everyday
eyeglasses have only impact–resistant lenses.
They ARE NOT safety glasses.
NOTE: Glasses or goggles not in compliance with ANSI Z87.1
could seriously injure you when they break.
13. WEAR A FACE MASK OR DUST MASK. Sawing
operation produces dust.
14. SECURE WORK. Use clamps or a vise to hold
work when practical. It is safer than using your
hand and it frees both hands to operate the tool.
15. DISCONNECT TOOLS FROM POWER SOURCE
before servicing, and when changing accessories such as
blades, bits and cutters.
16. REDUCE THE RISK OF UNINTENTIONAL STARTING.
Make sure switch is in the OFF position before plugging
the tool in.
17. USE RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES. Consult this
Operator's Manual for recommended accessories. The
use of improper accessories may cause risk of injury
to yourself or others.
18. NEVER STAND ON THE TOOL. Serious injury could
occur if the tool is tipped or if the cutting tool is
unintentionally contacted.
19. CHECK FOR DAMAGED PARTS. Before further use of
the tool, a guard or other part that is damaged should be
carefully checked to determine that it will operate
properly and perform its intended function – check for
alignment of moving parts, binding of moving parts,
breakage of parts, mounting and any other conditions
that may affect its operation. A guard or other part that is
damaged should be properly repaired or replaced.
20. NEVER LEAVE THE TOOL RUNNING UNATTENDED.
TURN THE POWER "OFF". Do not walk away from a
running tool until the grinding wheels come to a complete
stop and the tool is unplugged from the power source.
21. DO NOT OVERREACH. Keep proper footing and
balance at all times.
22. MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE. Keep tools sharp and
clean for best and safest performance. Follow
instructions for lubricating and changing accessories.
23. DO NOT use power tool in presence of flammable liquids
or gases.
24. DO NOT operate the tool if you are under the influence
of any drugs, alcohol or medication that could affect your
ability to use the tool properly.
WARNING
25. Dust generated from certain
materials can be hazardous to your health. Always
operate saw in well-ventilated area and provide for
proper dust removal.
DANGER
26. People with electronic devices, such as
pacemakers, should consult their physician(s)
before using this product. Operation of electrical
equipment in close proximity to a heart
pacemaker could cause interference or failure
of the pacemaker.
27. WEAR HEARING PROTECTION to reduce the
risk of induced hearing loss.
