SECTION 8: CLOSURE
The Model G5979 was specifically designed
for wood turning operations. DO NOT MOD-
IFY AND/OR USE THIS MACHINE FOR ANY
OTHER PURPOSE. Modifications or
improper use of this tool will void the war-
ranty. If you are confused about any aspect
of this machine, DO NOT use it until all your
questions have been answered or serious
personal injury may occur.
Like all power tools, there is danger asso-
ciated with the Model G5979. Accidents
are frequently caused by lack of familiarity
or failure to pay attention. Use this tool
with respect and caution to lessen the
possibility of operator injury. If normal
safety precautions are overlooked or
ignored, serious personal injury may
occur.
Operating this equipment creates the poten-
tial for flying debris to cause eye injury.
Always wear safety glasses or goggles
when operating equipment. Everyday glass-
es or reading glasses only have impact
resistant lenses, they are not safety glasses.
Be certain the safety glasses you wear meet
the appropriate standards of the American
National Standards Institute (ANSI).
