WARNING: Read and understand all Instructions. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may

result in electric shock, fire, and/or serious personal

injury.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

Work Area

• Keep your work area clean and well lit. Clut- tered benches and dark areas inviteaccidents.

Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of

flammable liquids, gases, or dust. Power tools

create sparks which may ignitethe dust orfumes.

• Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away

while operating a power tool, Distractions can cause you to lose control.

Electrical Safety

• Double Insulated tools are equipped with a

polarized plug (one blade is wider than the

other). This plug will fit in a polarized outlet

only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install a polarized outlet. Do not change the plug in any way. Double insulation [] eliminates the need for the three-wire grounded power cord and grounded

power supply system.

• Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces,

such as pipes, radiators, ranges, and refrigera-

tors. There isan increased riskof electric shock if your body isgrounded.

• Don't expose power tools to rain or wet condi- tions. Water entering a power tool will increase

the risk of electric shock.

• Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord to

carry the tools or pull the plug from an outlet.

Keep cord away from heat, o11,sharp edges, or moving parts. Replace damaged cords Immedi- ately. Damaged cords increase the riskof electric

shock.

• When operating a power tool outside, use an outdoor extension cord marked "W-A" or "W."

These cords are rated for outdoor use and reduce the risk of electric shock.

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 Influ-

ence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A mo- ment 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 pads.

[] 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. Awrench 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 protec- tion. Dust mask, nonskid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection must be used for appropriate

conditions.

Tool Use and Care

Use clamps or another practical way to secure

end support the workpiece to a stable plat-

form. 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. Service

• Disconnect the plug from the power source •

before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing the tool. Such preven- tive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the

tool accidentally. •

• Store idle tools out of the reach of children and

other untrained persons. Tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained toolswith

sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.

Check for misallgnment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, and any other condi-

tion that may affect the tool's operation. If

damaged, have the tool serviced before using. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained

tools.

Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for your model. Accesso-

ries that may be suitable for one tool may become hazardous when used on another tool.

Tool service must be performed only by quali- fied repair personnel. Service or maintenance

performed by unqualified personnel could result in a risk of injury.

When servicing a tool, use only identical

replacement parts. Follow instructions in the Maintenance section of this manual. Use of

unauthorized parts or failure to follow Maintenance Instructions may create a risk of electric shock or injury.

Holdtool by insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation where the cutting tool may

contact hidden wiring or its cord. Contact with a "live" wire will make exposed metal parts of the tool "live" and shock the operator.

Additional Rules for Safe Operation

• Know your power tool. Read operator's manual

carefully. Learn its applications and limitations, as well as the specific potential hazards related to this tool. Following this rule wiJlreduce the riskof

etectric shock, fire, or serious injury.

• Always wear safety glasses. Everyday eye-

glasses have only impact-resistant lenses; they are NOT safety glasses. Following this rule will

reduce the risk of serious personal injury.

• Protect your lungs. Wear a face or dust mask if the operation is dusty. Following this rule will

reduce the risk of serious personal injury.

• Protect your hearing. Wear hearing protection

during extended periods of operation. Following this rule will reduce the risk of serious personal

injury.

• Inspect tool cords periodically and, if dam-

aged, have repaired at your nearest Factory

Service Center or other Authorized Service

Organization. Constantly stay aware of cord

location. Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock or fire.

• 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 perform 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 by an authorized service center. Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric

shock, fire, or serious injury. Don't abuse cord. Never carry the tool by the

cord or yank it to disconnect it from the receptacle. Keep cord away from heat, oil, and

sharp edges. Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock or fire.

• 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. A wire gage size (A.W.G.) of st least 16 is recommended

for an extension cord 100 feet or less in

length. A cord exceeding 100 feet is not recommended. If in doubt, use the next

heavier gage. The smaller the gage number, the heavier the cord. An undersized cord will

cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of

power and overheating.

• Inspect for and remove all nails from lumber

before drilling, Following this rule will reduce the

risk of serious personal injury.

• Drugs, alcohol, medication. Do not operate tool

while under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or any medication. Following this rule will reduce the

riskof electric shock, fire, or serious personal injury.

• Save these instructions. Refer tothem frequently and use them to instruct others who may use

this tool. If you loan someone this tool, loan

them these instructions also.
