5. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Proper footing and
balance enables better control of the power 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. Always wear
ANSI-approved safety goggles and a dust mask/respirator when using or performing
maintenance on this tool.
TOOL USE AND CARE
1. Use clamps (not included) or other practical ways to secure and support the work-
piece 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 the 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. Do not force the tool and
do not use the tool for a purpose for which it is not intended.
3. Do not use the power tool if the Power Switch does not turn it on or off. Any tool that
cannot be controlled with the Power Switch is dangerous and must be replaced.
4. Disconnect the Power Cord Plug from the power source before making any adjust-
ments, changing accessories, or storing the tool. Such preventive safety measures
reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally. Always unplug the tool from its electrical
outlet before performing any inspection, maintenance, or cleaning procedures.
5. Store idle tools out of reach of children and other untrained persons. Tools are dan-
gerous in the hands of untrained users.
6. Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained
tools with a sharp cutting edge are less likely to bind and are easier to control. Do not use
a damaged tool. Tag damaged tools “Do not use” until repaired.
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 an-
other tool.
SERVICE
1. Tool service must be performed only by qualied repair personnel. Service or main-
tenance performed by unqualied personnel could result in a risk of injury.
2. When servicing a tool, use only identical replacement parts. Follow instructions
in the “Inspection, Maintenance, And Cleaning” section of this manual. Use of un-
authorized parts or failure to follow maintenance instructions may create a risk of electric
shock or injury.
