TABLE A
9. USE PROPER EXTENSION CORD.
Make sure your extension cord is
in good condition. When using an
extension cord, be sure to use one
heavy enough to carry the current
your product will draw. An undersized
cord will cause a drop in line voltage
resulting in loss of power and over-
heating.
Table A shows the correct
size to use depending on cord length
and nameplate ampere rating. If in
doubt, use the next heavier gauge.
The smaller the gauge number, the
heavier the cord.
10. WEAR PROPER APPAREL. Do not
wear loose clothing, neckties, rings,
bracelets, or other jewelry which may
get caught in moving parts. Nonslip
footwear is recommended. Wear pro-
tective hair covering to contain long
hair.
11. ALWAYS USE SAFETY GLASSES.
Also use face or dust mask if grinding
operation is dusty. Everyday eye-
glasses only have impact resistant
lenses, they are NOT safety glasses.
12. DON’T OVERREACH. Keep proper
footing and balance at all times.
13. MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE.
Keep tools sharp and clean for best
and safest performance. Follow
instructions for lubricating and chang-
ing accessories.
14. DISCONNECT TOOLS before ser-
vicing; when changing accessories,
such as blades, bits, cutters, and the
like.
15. REDUCE THE RISK OF UNINTEN-
TIONAL STARTING. Make sure
switch is in off position before plug-
ging in.
16. USE RECOMMENDED ACCESSO-
RIES. Consult the owner’s manual for
recommended accessories. The use
of improper accessories may cause
risk of injury to persons.
17. NEVER STAND ON TOOL. Serious
injury could occur if the tool is tipped
or if the grinding tool is unintentionally
contacted.
18. CHECK DAMAGED PARTS. Before
further use of the tool, a guard or
other part that is damaged should
be carefully checked to determine
that it will operate properly and per-
form its intended function – check for
alignment of moving parts, binding
of moving parts, breakage of parts,
mounting, and any other conditions
that may affect its operation. A guard
or other part that is damaged should
be properly repaired or replaced.
19. DIRECTION OF FEED. Feed work
into a blade or cutter against the
