Consult the Owner’s Manual for recommended accessories. Using improper accessories
may increase the risk of personal or by-stander injury.
Serious injury could occur if a power tool is tipped, or if a cutting tool is unintentionally
contacted.
Before using a power tool, check for damaged parts. A guard or any other part that is dam-
aged should be carefully checked to determine if it would operate properly and perform its
intended function. Always check moving parts for proper alignment or binding. Check for
broken parts and mountings and all other conditions that may affect the operation of the
power tool. A guard, or any damaged part, should be properly repaired or replaced.
alwaYS feed work into a blade or cutter against the direction of rotation. A blade or cutter
should always be installed such that rotation is in the direction of the arrow imprinted on
the side of the blade or cutter.
TURN POWER OFF - Do not leave a tool until it comes to a complete stop. Always
turn a power tool OFF when leaving the work area, or, when a cut is finished.

Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities con-
tain chemicals known (to the State of California) to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive
harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:
• Lead, from lead-based paints
• Crystalline silica, from bricks and cement and other masonry products
• Arsenic and chromium, from chemically treated lumber
For further information, consult the following sources:

Your risk from these exposures varies depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce
your exposure to these chemicals, work in a well-ventilated area, and work with approved safety
equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.
