Keep work area clean. Cluttered areas invite injuries.
Observe work area conditions. Do not use machines or power tools in damp or wet
locations. Don’t expose to rain. Keep work area well lighted. Do not use electrically
powered tools in the presence of flammable gases or liquids.
Keep children away. Children must never be allowed in the work area. Do not let
them handle machines, tools, or extension cords.
Store idle equipment. When not in use, tools must be stored in a dry location to inhibit
rust. Always lock up tools and keep out of reach of children.
Use the right tool for the job. Do not attempt to force a small tool or attachment
to do the work of a larger industrial tool. There are certain applications for which this
tool was designed. It will do the job better and more safely at the rate for which it was
intended. Do not modify this tool and do not use this tool for a purpose for which it
was not intended.
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry as they can be caught in moving parts. Protective, electrically non-conductive clothes and non-skid footwear are
recommended when working. Wear restrictive hair covering to contain long hair.
Use eye and ear protection. Always wear ANSI approved impact safety goggles and
ear protection. Wear a full face shield if you are producing metal filings or wood chips.
Wear an ANSI approved dust mask or respirator when working around metal, wood,
and chemical dusts and mists.

Maintain tools with care. Keep tools sharp and clean for better and safer performance.

Disconnect power. Unplug tool when not in use.
Remove adjusting keys and wrenches. Check that keys and adjusting wrenches are
removed from the tool or machine work surface before plugging it in.
Avoid unintentional starting. Do not carry any tool with your finger on the trigger,
whether it is plugged in or not.
Stay alert. Watch what you are doing, use common sense. Do not operate any tool
when you are tired.
Take caution as some woods contain preservatives such as copper chromium
arsenate (CCA) which can be toxic. When drilling these materials extra care should
be taken to avoid inhalation and minimize skin contact.
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 or 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. (California Health & Safety Code § 25249.5,
et seq.)

People with pacemakers should consult their physician(s) before use. Electromagnetic fields in close proximity to heart pacemaker could cause pacemaker interference
or pacemaker failure. In addition, people with pacemakers should:
• Avoid operating alone.
• Don’t use with power switch locked on.
• Properly maintain and inspect to avoid electrical shock.
• Any power cord must be properly grounded. Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI)
should also be implemented – it prevents sustained electrical shock.
Check for damaged parts. Before using any tool, any part that appears damaged
should be carefully checked to determine that it will operate properly and perform its
intended function. Check for alignment and binding of moving parts; any broken parts
or mounting fixtures; and any other condition that may affect proper operation. Any part
that is damaged should be properly repaired or replaced by a qualified technician. Do
not use the tool if the trigger does not turn On and Off properly.
Guard against electric shock. Prevent body contact with grounded surfaces such as
pipes, radiators, ranges, and refrigerator enclosures.
For technical questions, please call 1-800-444-3353.
