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, cement, and other masonry products.
• 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.

Remember that safety messages by themselves do not eliminate danger and are not a substitute for proper accident prevention measures.
NOTICE
Safety Instructions For Power Tools
5. KEEP CHILDREN AND VISITORS AWAY. All children and visitors should be
kept at a safe distance from work area.
6. MAKE WORKSHOP CHILD PROOF with
padlocks, master switches, or by removing starter keys.
7. DO NOT FORCE TOOL. It will do the job
better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
8. USE RIGHT TOOL. Do not force tool or
attachment to do a job for which it was not designed.
1. KEEP GUARDS IN PLACE and in working
order.
2. REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS AND WRENCHES. Form habit of checking to
see that keys and adjusting wrenches are removed from tool before turning on.
3. KEEP WORK AREA CLEAN. Cluttered
areas and benches invite accidents.
4. DO NOT USE IN DANGEROUS ENVI­RONMENT. Do not use power tools in
damp or wet locations, or where any flam­mable or noxious fumes may exist. Keep work area well lighted.

9. USE PROPER EXTENSION CORD. Make
sure your extension cord is in good condi­tion. Conductor size must be in accor­dance with the chart below. The amperage rating is listed on the motor or tool name­plate. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. Your extension cord must also contain a ground wire and plug pin. Always repair or replace damaged extension cords.
Minimum Gauge for Extension Cords
10. WEAR PROPER APPAREL. Do not wear
loose clothing, gloves, neckties, rings, bracelets, or other jewelry which may get caught in moving parts. Non-slip footwear is recommended. Wear protective hair covering to contain long hair.
11. ALWAYS USE ANSI-APPROVED SAFE­TY GLASSES. Also use face or dust mask
if cutting operation is dusty. Everyday eye­glasses only have impact resistant lenses, they are NOT safety glasses.
12. SECURE WORK. Use clamps or a vise to
hold work when practical. It is safer than using your hand and frees both hands to operate tool.
13. NEVER OVERREACH. Keep proper foot-
ing and balance at all times.

Safety Instructions For Power Tools
14. MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE. Keep
tools sharp and clean for best and safest performance. Follow instructions for lubri­cating and changing accessories.
15. DISCONNECT TOOLS before servicing
and changing accessories, such as blades, bits, cutters, and any other item.
16. REDUCE THE RISK OF UNINTENTIONAL STARTING. Make sure switch is in off posi-
tion before plugging in. Also, the magnetic switch on this machine may start if the switch gets bumped hard enough.
17. USE RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES.
Consult the owner’s manual for recom­mended accessories. The use of improper accessories may cause risk of injury.
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 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 must be properly repaired or replaced.
19. NEVER LEAVE TOOL RUNNING UNAT­TENDED. TURN POWER OFF. Do not
leave tool until it comes to a complete stop.
20. NEVER USE UNDER THE INFLUENCE of
alcohol or drugs, or when tired.
21. IF AT ANY TIME YOU ARE EXPERIENC­ING DIFFICULTIES performing the intend-
ed operation, stop using the machine! Then contact our service department or ask a qualified expert how the operation should be performed.

1. HAND POSITIONING. Never pass your
hands directly over, or in front of the cutter. As one hand approaches cutter, move it in an arc motion away from the cutter to the outfeed side and reposition that hand beyond the cut­ter.
2. STOCK LENGTH. Do not shape stock short-
er than 12 inches without special fixtures or jigs. Where practical, shape longer stock and cut to size.
3. BLIND CUT WHENEVER POSSIBLE. This
keeps the cutters on the underside of the workpiece and provides a distance guard for the operator.
4. TEST ROTATION. Always rotate the spindle
by hand, with the machine unplugged, to test any new setup to ensure proper cutter clear­ance before starting the machine.
5. KEEP ANY UNUSED PORTION OF THE CUTTER BELOW THE TABLE SURFACE.
6. DEPTH OF CUT. Never remove too much
material in one pass. Several light passes are safer and give a cleaner finish.
7. SAFETY DEVICES. The use of push sticks
as safety devices in some applications is smart; in others it can be quite dangerous. If the push stick comes in contact with the cut­ter on the end grain, it can fly out of your hand like a bullet—potentially causing serious injury.
We recommend using some type of fixture, jig, or hold-down device as a safer alterna­tive. Use a guard or other type of protective device at all times.
8. ALWAYS FEED AGAINST THE ROTA­TION OF THE CUTTER.
9. DO NOT REMOVE THE RETRACTABLE GUARD ON THE FENCE.
10. IF AT ANYTIME YOU ARE EXPERIENC­ING DIFFICULTIES PERFORMING THE INTENDED OPERATION, STOP USING THE ROUTER TABLE! Then contact our
service department or ask a qualified expert how the operation should be performed.
11. BE AWARE THAT CERTAIN WOODS MAY CAUSE AN ALLERGIC REACTION
in people and animals, especially when exposed to fine dust. Make sure you know what type of wood dust you will be exposed to, the possibility of a allergic reaction and always wear an approved respirator.
12. NEVER REACH BEHIND THE SPINNING CUTTER.
13. READ AND UNDERSTAND THE INSTRUCTION MANUAL SUPPLIED WITH THE ROUTER INSTALLED IN THIS TABLE
14. DO NOT REACH UNDER THE ROUTER TABLE WHILE THE ROUTER IS PLUGGED IN OR RUNNING.

SECTION 3: CIRCUIT REQUIREMENTS
General
Electrical
The power switch (Page 7, Figure 2) on the
Model H3114 is designed to work with most routers and other electrical accessories. The power switch provides the convenience of switch­ing power to the router and accessories at the front of the router table instead of having to reach under the table and locate multiple switches. The power switch also allows multiple devices such as lights or vacuums to be powered on when the router is powered on.
The Model H3114 power switch is designed to accept 2-prong DOUBLE INSULATED plugs or 3­prong grounding type plugs. The power switch plugs into a wall outlet that is properly grounded
as shown in Figure 1.
If the machine is wired incorrectly a fire could result. Make sure your wiring, recep­tacle, plug, and circuit breaker can handle the current draw of the machine. If you are not sure that your electrical circuit can han­dle the current draw, get a qualified electri­cian to test your electrical system and do any required upgrades. Do not attempt to modify an existing circuit by only replacing the circuit breaker with one rated for a high­er amperage draw than the wiring, recepta­cle, and plug are rated for.
