WARNING

WEAR RESPIRATORY PROTECTION

Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling and other construction activities contain 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-base paints,

Crystalline Silica from bricks, 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.

A "DANGER, WARNING or CAUTION" safety warning will be surrounded by a "SAFETY ALERT BOX." This box is used to designate and emphasize Safety Warnings that must be followed when operating this tool.

Accompanying the Safety Warnings are "signal words" which designate the degree or level of hazard seriousness. The "signal words" used in this manual are as follows:

DANGER: Indicates an imminently hazardous situation which, if not avoided, WILL result in death or serious injury.

WARNING: Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, COULD result in death or serious injury.

CAUTION: Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided MAY result in minor or moderate injury.

GENERAL SAFETY RULES

WARNING: READ AND UNDERSTAND ALL INSTRUCTIONS. Failure to follow all instructions listed below, may result

in electric shock, fire and/or serious personal injury.

Carefully read all safety messages in this manual and on your machine safety signs. Keep safety signs in good condition. Replace missing or damaged safety signs. Be sure new equipment components and repair parts include the current safety signs. Replacement safety signs are available from your John Deere dealer.

Learn how to operate the machine and how to use controls properly. Do not let anyone operate without instruction.

WARNING

GENERAL SAFETY RULES:

WORK AREA

Keep work area clean and well lit.

Cluttered areas and benches invite injuries.

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 ignite the dust or fumes.

Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.

Protect Against Noise

Prolonged exposure to loud noise can cause impairment

or loss of hearing. Wear a suitable hearing protective device such as earmuffs or earplugs to protect against objectionable or uncomfortable loud noises.

Operating equipment safely requires the full attention of the operator. Do not wear radio or music headphones while operating machine.

WARNING

GENERAL SAFETY RULES:

ELECTRICAL SAFETY

Grounded tools must be plugged into an outlet properly installed and grounded in accordance with all codes

and ordinances. Never remove the grounding prong or modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adaptor plugs. Check with a qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded. If the tools should electrically malfunction or break down, grounding provides a low resistance path to carry electricity away from the user.

Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is grounded.

Don’t expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. 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, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Replace damaged cords immediately. Damaged cords increase the risk of 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.

Note: 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 overheating. John Deere recommends

using a minimum 12 gauge extension cord not to exceed 100 feet. The table below is supplied only as a guide to minimum gauge for extension cords, where the smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.

WARNING

GENERAL SAFETY RULES:

 

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 influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment

 

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 parts.

 

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 switches before turning the tool on.

 

A wrench 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 protection. Dust mask,

 

nonskid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection must be used

 

for appropriate conditions.

 

Never touch the moving parts. Never touch the blade while the

 

power cord is connect to the power source.

 

TOOL USE AND CARE

 

Use clamps or other practical way to secure and support the

 

workpiece to a stable platform. 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.

 

Disconnect the plug from the power source before making any

 

adjustments, changing accessories, or storing the tool. Such

 

preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the tool

 

accidentally.

 

Store idle tools out of 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 tools, with sharp cutting edges are less likely to

 

bind and are easier to control.

 

Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of

 

parts, and any other condition that may affect the tools

 

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. Accessories that may be suitable

 

for one tool, may become hazardous when used on another tool.

 

Never touch the moving parts. Never touch the blade while the

 

power cord is connected to the power source.
