WEAR YOUR
SAFETY GLASSES
FORESIGHT IS BETTER
THAN NO SIGHT
The operation of any power tool can result in foreign objects being thrown into your eyes, which can result in severe eye damage. Before beginning tool operation, always wear safety goggles or safety glasses with side shields and a full face shield when needed. We recommend Wide Vision Safety Mask for use over eyeglasses or standard safety glasses with side shields. Always wear eye protection which is marked to comply with ANSI Z87.1.
Look for this symbol to point out important safety precautions. It means attention!!! Your safety is involved.

RULES FOR SAFE OPERATION
Safe operation of this power tool requires that you read and understand this operator's manual and all labels affixed to the tool. Safety is a combination of common sense, staying alert, and knowing how your tool works.
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS
QKnow your power tool. Read operator’s manual carefully. Learn its applications and limitations, as well as the specific potential hazards related to this tool. Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock, fire, or serious injury.
QKeep guards in place and in good working order.
QRemove wrenches and adjusting keys. Form the habit of ensuring that hex keys and adjusting wrenches are removed before turning on the tool.
QKeep the work area clean. Cluttered work areas and work benches invite accidents.
QDo not use in dangerous environments. Do not use power tools in damp or wet locations, or expose them to rain. Keep the work area well lit.
QKeep children and visitors away. All visitors should be kept a safe distance from work area.
QMake workshop childproof with padlocks and master switches or by removing starter keys.
QDo not force the tool. It will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
QUse the right tool. Do not force the tool or attachment to do a job for which it was not designed.
QUse the proper extension cord. Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. Use only a cord 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. A wire gage size (A.W.G.) of at least 14 is recommended for an extension cord 25 feet or less in length. If in doubt, use the next heavier gage. The smaller the gage number, the heavier the cord.
QInspect tool cords periodically and, if damaged, have repaired at your nearest authorized service center. Constantly stay aware of cord location.
Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock or fire.
QDo not abuse cord. Never carry the tool by the cord or yank it to disconnect it from the receptacle. Keep cord away from heat, oil, and sharp edges. Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock or fire.
QPolarized plugs. To reduce the risk of electric shock, this equipment has 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 the proper outlet. Do not change the plug in any way.
QWear proper apparel. Do not wear loose clothing, gloves, neckties, rings, bracelets, or other jewelry that can get caught in moving parts. Nonslip footwear is recommended. Also wear protective hair covering to contain long hair.
QAlways wear safety glasses. Everyday eyeglasses have only impact-resistant lenses; they are NOT safety glasses.
QProtect your lungs. Wear a face or dust mask if the operation is dusty. Following this rule will reduce the risk of serious personal injury.
QProtect your hearing. Wear hearing protection during extended periods of operation. Following this rule will reduce the risk of serious personal injury.
QSecure 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.
QDo not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
QNever stand on tool. Serious injury could occur if the tool is tipped or if the cutting tool is unintentionally contacted.
QMaintain tools with care. Keep tools sharp and clean for better and safer performance. Follow instructions for lubricating and changing accessories.
QAvoid accidental starting. Make sure switch is in off position when plugging in tool.
QDisconnect tools before servicing, when not in use, or when changing attachments.
QUse recommended accessories. Consult the operator's manual for recommended accessories. The use of improper accessories may cause risk of injury.

RULES FOR SAFE OPERATION
QCheck damaged parts. Before using 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.
QDirection of feed. Feed work into a blade or cutter against the direction or rotation of the blade or cutter only.
QKeep hands away from cutting area. Do not reach underneath the table or in the cutting path with your hands or fingers at any time while the tool is connected to a power source.
QDo not use awkward hand positions.
QUse overhead guard when adjustable fence is not in place.
QFirmly clamp or bolt the router table to a work surface so that the router table surface is approximately hip height.
QNever leave tool running unattended. Turn the power off. Do not leave tool until it comes to a complete stop.
QInspect for and remove all nails from lumber before routing. Following this rule will reduce the risk of serious personal injury.
QDrugs, alcohol, medication. Do not operate tool while under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or any medication. Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock, fire, or serious personal injury.
QSave these instructions. Refer to them frequently and use them to instruct others who may use this tool. If you loan someone this tool, loan them these instructions also.
WARNING:
Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities contains chemicals known 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 and other masonry products, and
•arsenic and chromium from chemicallytreated 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.
