WEAR YOUR SAFETY GLASSES- FORESIGHT IS BETTER THAN NO SIGHT
WARNING! 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 safety masks for use over eyeglasses or standard
safety glasses with side shields. Always wear eye protection which is marked to comply with ANSI Z .1.
• Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Safety equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety
shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
• Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves away from moving
parts. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be caught in moving parts. Air vents may cover moving parts and
should be avoided.
• Wear breathing protection. Use of this tool can generate and/or disperse dust, which may cause serious and
permanent respiratory or other injury. Many types of wood are naturally toxic, especially in dust form. Wear a
clean dust mask if the work involves creating a lot of fine or coarse dust. Always use NIOSH/OSHA-approved
respiratory protection appropriate for the dust exposure. Direct particles away from face and body.
• Wear hearing protection, especially from repeated exposure.
• Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the switch is in the off position before plugging in. Carrying power tools with
your finger on the switch or plugging in power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
• Remove any adjusting keys or wrenches before turning the power tool on. A wrench or key that is left attached
to a rotating part of the tool may result in personal injury.
• Do not overreach. Maintain proper footing and balance at all times. Loss of balance can cause an injury in an
unexpected situation.
• If devices are provided for connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and
properly used. Use of these devices can reduce dust-related hazards.
• Never stand on tool. Serious injury could occur if the tool is tipped or if the cutting tool is unintentionally
contacted.
• Stay alert. Watch what you are doing & use common sense. Do not operate any tool when you are tired, sick or
under the influence of alcohol or other drugs.
• Observe the accident prevention regulations in force in your area.
• Observe the general rules of occupational health and safety in force in your area.
TOOL USE AND CARE
• The tool must be fully assembled before connecting it to a power supply.
• Know your equipment. Read and understand the owner’s manual and the labels attached to the tool. Learn its
applications and limitations as well as the specific potential hazards peculiar to this tool.
• Do not force the power tool. The tool will perform the job better and safer at the feed rate for which it is
designed. Forcing the tool could possibly damage the tool and may result in personal injury.
• Use the correct power tool for the job. Don’t force any tool or attachment to do a job for which it is not designed.
• Do not use a tool if the switch does not turn it on or off. Any tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is
dangerous and must be repaired or replaced by an authorized service center.
• Turn the power tool off, and disconnect the plug from the power source and/ or battery pack from the power tool
before making any adjustments, changing the accessories, or storing the tools. Such preventive safety
measures reduce the risk of an accidental start up which may cause personal injury.
