dean and in good working order. Keep aH Mades
and tooU bits sharp.
21. EACH AND EVERY TIME, CHECK FOR DAMAGED
PARTS PRIOR TO USING THE TOOL. Carefully
check aH guards to see that they operate properUy,
are not damaged, and perform their intended func-
tions. Check for alignment, binding or breaking of
moving parts. A guard or other part that is damaged
shouUd be immediateUy repaired or repUaced.
22, CHILDPROOF THE WORKSHOP AREA by remov-
ing switch keys, unpUugging tooUs from the eUectrbaU
receptacles, and using padbcks,
23. DO NOT OPERATE TOOL IF UNDER THE INFLU-
ENCE OF DRUGS OR ALCOHOL.
24, SECURE ALL WORK, When it is possibb, use
damps or jigs to secure the workpbce, This is
safer than attempting to hoUdthe workpbce with
your hands,
25. STAY ALERT, WATCH WHAT YOU ARE DOING,
AND USE COMMON SENSE WHEN OPERATING
A POWER TOOL. DO NOT USE A TOOL WHILE
TIRED OR UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF DRUGS,
ALCOHOL, OR MEDICATION. A moment of
inattention while operating power tools may result
in serious personal injury,
26, ALWAYS WEAR A DUST MASK TO PREVENT
INHALING DANGEROUS DUST OR AIRBORNE
PARTICLES, including wood dust, crystalline silica
dust and asbestos dust. Direct particles away from
face and body. Always operate tool in well venti-
lated area and provide for proper dust removal. Use
dust collection system wherever possible. Exposure
to the dust may cause serious and permanent res-
piratory or other injury, including silicosis (a serious
lung disease), cancer, and death. Avoid breathing
the dust, and avoid prolonged contact with dust.
Allowing dust to get into your mouth or eyes, or lay
on your skin may promote absorption of harmful
material. Always use properly fitting NIOSH/OSHA
approved respiratory protection appropriate for the
dust exposure, and wash exposed areas with soap
and water,
27, USE A PROPER 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. The table at right shows the
correct size to use depending on cord length and
nameplate amperage rating, if in doubt, use the
next heavier gauge, The smaller the gauge number,
the larger diameter of the extension cord, if in doubt
of the proper size of an extension cord, use a short-
er and thicker cord, An undersized cord will cause a
drop in line voltage resulting in a loss of power and
overheating. USE ONLY A 3-WIRE EXTENSION
CORD THAT HAS A 3-PRONG GROUNDING
PLUG AND A 3-POLE RECEPTACLE THAT
ACCEPTS THE TOOL'S PLUG.
GUJDEUNES FOR
EXTENSION CORDS
If you are using an extension cord outdoors, be sure
it is marked with the suffix "W-A" CW" in Canada) to
indicate that it is acceptable for outdoor use,
Be sure your extension cord is properly sized, and
in good electrical condition, Always replace a damaged
extension cord or have it repaired by a qualified person
before using it,
Protect your extension cords from sharp objects,
excessive heat, and damp or wet areas.
