may not always be obvious.

particles and tiny wire fragments may be
discharged at high velocity during the
“cleaning” action with these brushes and may
become imbedded in your skin. Bristles or
wires will be discharged from the brush at high
speeds.

“Heavy” pressure on bristles will cause the
wire or bristle to become overstressed,
resulting in a wiping action and will cause the
bristles/wire to be discharged.

can snap during use. Dull bits require more
force to push the tool, possibly causing the bit
to break.

D85 C@9>>9>7 29D Round material such as
dowel rods, pipes or tubing have a tendency to
roll while being cut, and may cause the bit to
“bite” or jump toward you. Clamping a small
workpiece allows you to use both hands to
control the tool.

sure there are no nails or foreign objects in the
workpiece. Nails or foreign objects can cause
the bit to jump.
