No list of safety guidelines can be
complete. Every shop environment is
different. Always consider safety
first, as it applies to your individual
working conditions. Use this and
other machinery with caution and
respect. Failure to do so could result
in serious personal injury, damage to
equipment or poor work results.

9.

USE PROPER EXTENSION CORD

for the tool. Make sure your exten-

sion cord is in good condition.

Conductor size should be in accor-

dance with the chart below. The

amperage rating should be listed on

the motor or tool nameplate. An

undersized cord will cause a drop in

line voltage resulting in loss of power

and overheating. Your extension

cord must also contain a ground wire

and plug pin. Always repair or

replace extension cords if they

become damaged.

10. WEAR PROPER APPAREL.

Do not

wear loose clothing, gloves, neck-

ties, rings, bracelets, or other jewel-

ry which may get caught in moving

parts. Non-slip footwear is recom-

mended. Wear protective hair cover-

ing to contain long hair.

11. ALWAYS USE SAFETY GLASSES.

Also use face or dust mask if cutting

operation is dusty. Everyday eye-

glasses only have impact resistant

lenses, they are NOT safety glass-

es.

12. SECURE WORK.

Use clamps or a

vise to hold work when practical. It’s

safer than using your hand and frees

both hands to operate tool.

13. DON’T OVERREACH.

Keep proper

footing and balance at all times.
