manual including all text under subheadings therein before set up or use of this product.
TO PREVENT SERIOUS INJURY:
Always wear thermally insulated gloves, rated to at least 1200° F, when working directly with pieces by hand.
Workpiece and Work Area Set Up
1. Designate a work area that is clean and well-
lit. The work area must not allow access by
children or pets to prevent distraction and injury.
2. Route the power cord along a safe route to reach

exposing the power cord to possible damage. The
power cord must reach the work area with enough
extra length to allow free movement while working.
3. Secure loose workpieces using a vise or clamps
(not included) to prevent movement while working.
4. There must not be objects, such as utility lines,
nearby that will present a hazard while working.
