SAFETY
ACCIDENTAL STARTS!
Before starting the engine, be sure the ON/OFF switch is in the "OFF" position to prevent accidental
starting. Place the ON/OFF switch in the OFF position before performing any service operation.
ROTATING OR MOVING PARTS!
Keep hands, feet, hair, and clothing away from all moving parts to prevent injury. Never operate a
power tool with shrouds or guards removed.
HOT PARTS!
Engine components can become extremely hot from operation. To prevent severe burns, do not touch
these areas while the engine is running, or immediately after it is turned off. Never operate the engine
with heat shields removed.
ALWAYS USE SAFETY GLASSES!
Safety glasses should always be worn when working around power tools. Everyday eyeglasses only
have impact resistant lenses and may not prevent eye injury; they are NOT safety glasses.
ALWAYS USE RESPIRATORY PROTECTON!
Exhaust gases may be harmful if inhaled. Do not operate gas-powered equipment in enclosed
spaces. Respiratory protection should be worn when operating gas-powered equipment.
ALWAYS USE HEARING PROTECTION!
To reduce the possibility of hearing loss, always use hearing protection when operating equipment.
REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS AND WRENCHES.
Form a habit of checking to see that keys and adjusting wrenches are removed from the power tool before it
is turned on.
KEEP WORK AREA CLEAN.
Cluttered work areas and benches invite accidents.
DO NOT USE IN DANGEROUS ENVIRONMENTS.
Do not operate equipment in dangerous environments. Always keep the work area well lighted.
KEEP CHILDREN AWAY.
All visitors and children should be kept a safe distance from work area.
MAKE WORKSHOP KID PROOF.
Make the workshops kid proof by using padlocks, master switches or by removing starter keys.
DO NOT FORCE THE TOOL.
A power tool will do a job better and safer operating at the rate for which it was designed.
USE THE RIGHT TOOL.
Do not force a tool or an attachment, to do a job that it was not designed to do.
WEAR PROPER APPAREL.
Do not wear loose clothing, gloves, neckties, rings, bracelets, or other jewelry that may be caught in moving
parts. Nonslip footwear is recommended. Wear protective hair covering to contain long hair.
SECURE WORK.
Clamps or a vise should be used to hold work whenever practical. Keeping your hands free to operate a
power tool is safer.
