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 example of these chemicals are:
●●
lead from lead-based paints
●●
crystalline silica from bricks and 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, always wear
MSHA/NIOSH approved, properly fitting face mask or respirator when using such tools.

This manual contains information that is important for you to know and understand. This information relates to protecting YOUR SAFETY and PREVENTING
EQUIPMENT PROBLEMS. To help you recognize this information, we use the
symbols below. Please read the manual and pay attention to these sections.
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.
GENERAL SAFETY RULES
WORK AREA
1. Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered benches and dark
areas invite accidents.
2. 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.
3. Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away while operating a
power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
1. 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.
2. 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.

3. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering
a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
4. 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.
5. 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
1. 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.
2. 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.
3. 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.
4. Remove adjusting keys or wrenches 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.
5. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
Proper footing and balance enables better control of the tool in
unexpected situations.
6. Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Dust mask, nonskid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection must be used for
appropriate conditions.
TOOLS USE AND CARE
1. 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.
2. 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.
3. 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.
4. 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.
5. Store idle tools out of reach of children and other untrained
persons. Tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
6. 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.
7. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of
parts, and any other condition that may affect the tool’s operation. If
damaged, have the tool serviced before using. Many accidents are
caused by poorly maintained tools.
8. 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.

1. HOLD TOOL BY INSULATED GRIPPING SURFACES
WHEN PERFORMING AN OPERATION WHERE THE CUTTING
TOOLS MAY CONTACT HIDDEN WIRING OR ITS OWN CORD.
Contact with a “live” wire will make exposed metal parts of the tool
“live” and shock the operator.
2. VERIFY the direction of rotation before starting the tool.
3. NEVER ATTEMPT TO CHANGE DIRECTION of rotation while switch is
“ON”. To do so, may damage interlock feature built into switch. Be sure
switch is “OFF” and motor has completely stopped before changing
direction of rotation.
4. SOME WOOD CONTAINS PRESERVATIVES WHICH CAN BE TOXIC.
Take extra care to prevent inhalation and skin contact when working
with these materials. Request, and follow, any safety information
available from your material supplier.
There are certain applications for which this tool was
designed. Porter-Cable strongly recommends that this tool
NOT be modified and/or used for any application other than
for which it was designed. If you have any questions relative
to its application DO NOT use the tool until you have written
Porter-Cable and we have advised you.
