hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. It is recommended to wear
protective goggles, gloves, sturdy non-slipping shoes and an apron while operating
the machine.

3. Avoid accidental starting. Be sure switch is in LOCK position before connecting the

1. Use clamps or other practical way to secure and support the work piece to a stable
