PERSONAL SAFETY
STAY ALERT, WATCH WHAT YOU ARE DOING AND USE COMMON SENSE
WHEN OPERATING A POWER TOOL. DO NOT USE 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.
DRESS PROPERLY. DO NOT WEAR LOOSE CLOTHING OR JEWELRY. CONTAIN
LONG HAIR. KEEP YOUR HAIR, CLOTHING AND GLOVES AWAY FROM MOVING
PARTS. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
AVOID ACCIDENTAL STARTING. BE SURE SWITCH IS OFF BEFORE PLUGGING
IN. Carrying tools with your finger on the switch or plugging in tools that have the
switch on invites accidents.
REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS OR WRENCHES BEFORE TURNING THE TOOL ON.
A wrench or a key that is left attached to a rotating part of the tool may result in
personal injury.
DO NOT OVERREACH. KEEP PROPER FOOTING AND BALANCE AT ALL TIMES.
Proper footing and balance enables better control of the tool in unexpected situations.
USE SAFETY EQUIPMENT. ALWAYS WEAR EYE PROTECTION. Dust mask,
nonskid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection must be used for appropriate
conditions.
TOOL USE AND CARE
USE CLAMPS OR OTHER PRACTICAL WAY TO SECURE AND SUPPORT THE
WORKPLACE TO A STABLE PLATFORM. Holding the work by hand or against your
body is unstable and may lead to loss of control.
DO NOT FORCE TOOL. USE THE CORRECT TOOL FOR YOUR APPLICATION.
The correct tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it is designed.
DO NOT USE TOOL IF SWITCH DOES NOT TURN IT ON OR OFF. Any tool that
cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
DISCONNECT THE PLUG FROM THE POWER SOURCE BEFORE MAKING ANY
ADJUSTMENTS, CHANGING ACCESSORIES, OR STORING THE TOOL. Such
preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally.
STORE IDLE TOOLS OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN AND OTHER UNTRAINED
PERSONS. Tools are dangerous in the hand of untrained users.
MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE. KEEP CUTTING TOOLS SHARP AND CLEAN.
Properly maintained tools, with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are
easier to control.
CHECK FOR MISALIGNMENT OR BINDING OF MOVING PARTS, BREAKAGE OF
PARTS, AND ANY OTHER CONDITION THAT MAY AFFECT THE TOOLS OPERA-
TION. IF DAMAGED, HAVE THE TOOL SERVICED BEFORE USING. Many
accidents are caused by poorly maintained tools.

TURER FOR YOUR MODEL. Accessories that may be suitable for one tool, may
become hazardous when used on another tool.
