KEEP WORK AREA CLEAN. Cluttered areas and benches invite injuries.
CONSIDER WORK AREA ENVIRONMENT. Don't use power tools
in
damp
or
wet locations. Keep work area well
lit.
Don't expose power tools to rain.
Don't use tool
in
presence of flammable liquids or gases.
KEEP CHILDREN AWAY. All visitors should be kept away from work area.
Don't let visitors contact tool or extension cord.
STORE IDLE TOOLS. When not
in
use, tools should be stored
in
dry, and high
or locked-up place
-
out of reach of children.
DON'T FORCE TOOL.
It
will
do the job better and safer at the rate for which
it
was intended.
USE RIGHT TOOL. Don't force small tool or attachment to do the job of a
heavy-duty tool. Don't use tool for purpose not intended; for example, don't
use circular saw for cutting tree limbs or logs.
DRESS PROPERLY. Don't wear loose clothing or jewelry. They can be caught
in
moving parts. Rubber gloves and non-skid footwear are recommended
when working outdoors. Wear protective hair covering to contain long hair.
USE SAFETY GLASSES. Also use face or dust mask if cutting operation is
dusty.
DON'T ABUSE CORD. Never carry tool by cord or yank
it
to disconnect from
receptacle. Keep cord from heat, oil, and sharp edges.
SECURE WORK. Use clamps or a vise to hold work. It's safer than using
your hand and
it
frees both hands to operate tool.
DON'T OVERREACH. Keep proper footing and balance at
all
times.
MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE. Keep tools sharp and clean for better and
safer performance. Follow instructions for lubricating and changing accessories. Inspect tool cords periodically and if damaged, have repaired by authorized service facility. Inspect extension cords periodically and replace if
damaged. Keep handles dry, clean, and free from oil and grease.
DISCONNECT TOOLS. When not
in
use, before servicing, and when chang-
ing accessories, such as blades, bits, cutters.
14.
REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS AND WRENCHES. Form habit of checking to
see that keys and adjusting wrenches are removed from tool before turning
it
on.
15.
AVOID UNINTENTIONAL STARTING. Don't carry tool with finger on switch.
Be sure switch is OFF when plugging
in.
16.
EXTENSION CORDS. 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 overheating. Table 1 shows the
correct size to use depending on cord length and nameplate ampere rating.
If
in
doubt, use the next heavier gage. The smaller the gage number, the
heavier the cord.

VOLTAGE WARNING: Before connecting the tool to a power source (receptacle,
outlet, etc.) be sure the voltage supplied is the same as that specified on
the
nameplate of the tool. A power source with voltage greater than that specified
for the tool can result in SERIOUS INJURY to the user
-
as well as damage to
the tool.
If
in doubt,
DO
NOT PLUG
IN
THE TOOL. Using a power source with
voltage less than the nameplate rating is harmful to the motor.
ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES
1.
Wear a hard hat (safety helmet), safety glasses and/or face shield.
It
is also
highly recommended that you wear a dust mask, ear protectors and thickly
padded gloves.
2.
Under normal operation, the tool is designed to produce vibration. The screws
can come loose easily, causing a breakdown or accident. Check tightness of
screws carefully before operation.
3.
Always be sure you have a firm footing.
Be sure no one is below when using the tool in high locations.
4.
Hold the tool firmly with both hands. Always use the side grip.
5.
Keep hands away from rotating parts.
6.
Do
not leave the tool running. Operate the tool only when hand-held.
7.
When drilling into walls, floors or wherever "live" electrical wires may be
encountered,
DO
NOT TOUCH ANY METAL PARTS
OF
THE TOOL!
Hold the tool by the insulated grasping surfaces to prevent electric shock if
you drill into a "live" wire.
8.
Do
not touch the bit or the workpiece immediately after operation; they may
be extremely hot and could burn your skin.
