6) Additional Safety Rules for the DB210 Foreman
a) To reduce the risk of electric shock, this equipment has a
polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). This plug
fits in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully
in the outlet, rotate the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified
electrician to install the proper outlet. Do not change the plug in any way.
b) Keep hands away from the rotating bit and workpiece clamp
when operating the machine.
c) Make sure the bit is completely withdrawn from the workpiece
and comes to a complete stop before adjusting the workpiece
position.
d) Secure the machine to prevent tipping or sliding. Never stand
on the machine.
e) Follow all lubrication and maintenance practices detailed in
the instruction manual.
f) This machine is designed for a specific application. Do not
modify and/or use it for any other application. If you have questions
relative to the application of the machine, DO NOT use it until you
have contacted Kreg Tool Company and have been advised accordingly.
7) The label on your machine may include the symbols below. The
symbols and their definitions are as follows:
California Proposition 65
WARNING! Dust created by sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and
other construction activities may contain chemicals known to the
State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other
reproductive harm. Examples of these chemicals are:
a) Lead from lead-based paints
b) Crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry
products
c) Arsenic and chromium from chemically treated lumber
Your risk from exposure to these chemicals depends on how often you do
this type of work. To reduce your exposure, work in a well-ventilated area
with approved safety equipment, such as a dust mask specifically designed
to filter out microscopic particles.

Guidelines for extension cord use
Extension cords are only to be used for temporary purposes. They do
not replace the need for installation of outlets and proper wiring where
necessary.
In the shop and on construction sites:
1. Extension cords with an equipment grounding conductor must be used at
all times.
2. Extension cords must be protected from damage, and not run through
doorways or windows where the doors or windows may close, causing
damage to the cord.
3. Extension cords should be a minimum of 16 AWG and be rated for the
equipment in use.
4. Extension cords must be periodically inspected to ensure that the
insulation and conductivity of the wires are not compromised.
5. Extension cords should not be run through water or allowed to have
connections that may be exposed to accumulated water.

• Be sure that the cutter knives are mounted as described in the
instruction manual and check that all bolts are firmly tightened
before connecting unit to power source.
• To avoid injury, never rotate the cutter block directly with your
hands.
• Keep guards in place and in good working order.
• Stay alert – never operate the unit when tired or under the
influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication.
• Do not use in dangerous environments. Do not use near
flammable substances, in damp or wet locations, or expose to
rain.
• Never plane material which is shorter than 12 inches.
• Exhaust chute: remove shavings with brush or vacuum after
power has been shut off and cutter head has stopped rotating.
• ALWAYS LOCATE PLANER WITH PROPER CLEARANCE ON
THE OUTFEED SIDE of the unit to prevent pinching or binding of
the workpiece against any obstacle.
• Clean out your tool often, especially after heavy use. Dust
and grit containing metal particles often accumulate on interior
surfaces and could create a risk of serious injury, electric shock or
electrocution. ALWAYS WEAR SAFETY GLASSES.
WARNING: For your own safety, it is recommended that two
people carry this machine or serious injury could result.
WARNING: Always wear proper personal hearing protection
that conforms to ANSI S12.6 (S3.19) during use. Under some
conditions and duration of use, noise from this product may
contribute to hearing loss.
WARNING: Some dust created by power sanding, sawing,
grinding, drilling, and other construction activities contains 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, and
• arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber.
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.
•
Avoid prolonged contact with dust from power sanding,
sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities.
Wear protective clothing and wash exposed areas with
soap and water. Allowing dust to get into your mouth, eyes, or
lay on the skin may promote absorption of harmful chemicals.
WARNING: A dust mask or respirator should be worn by all
persons entering the work area. The filter should be replaced daily or
whenever the wearer has difficulty breathing. See your local hardware
store for the proper NIOSH/OSHA approved dust mask.
