IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ AND UNDERSTAND ALL WARNINGS AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THIS
EQUIPMENT. Failure to follow all instructions listed below, may result in electric shock, fire, and/or
serious personal injury or property damage.
Woodworking can be dangerous if safe and proper operating procedures are not followed. As with all
machinery, there are certain hazards involved with the operation of the product. Using the machine with
respect and caution will considerably lessen the possibility of personal injury. However, if normal safety
precautions are overlooked or ignored, personal injury to the operator may result. Safety equipment such as
guards, push sticks, hold-downs, featherboards, goggles, dust masks and hearing protection can reduce your potential
for injury. But even the best guard won’t make up for poor judgment, carelessness or inattention. Always use common
sense and exercise caution in the workshop. If a procedure feels dangerous, don’t try it. Figure out an alternative
procedure that feels safer. REMEMBER: Your personal safety is your responsibility. For additional information please
