Personal Safety
10. Stay alert. Watch what you are doing, and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do
not use a power tool while tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment
of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
11. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Contain long hair. Keep your hair, clothing,
and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be caught in moving
parts.
12. Avoid accidental starting. Be sure the Power Switch is off before plugging in. Carrying power tools
with your finger on the Power Switch, or plugging in power tools with the Power Switch on, invites
accidents.
13. Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key that is left
attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.
14. 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.
15. Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Dust mask, nonskid safety shoes, hard hat, or
hearing protection must be used for appropriate conditions.
Tool Use and Care
16. 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.
17. 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.
18. 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.
19. Disconnect the Power Cord Plug from the power source before making any adjustments, changing
accessories, or storing the tool. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the tool
accidentally.
20. Store idle tools out of reach of children and other untrained persons. Tools are dangerous in the
hands of untrained users.
21. Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting tools maintained and clean. Properly maintained tools are
less likely to bind and are easier to control. Do not use a damaged tool. Tag damaged tools “Do not use”
until repaired.
22. 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.
WARNING! Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction
activities, contain chemicals known (to the State of California) to cause cancer, birth defects or other
reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are: lead from lead-based paints, crystalline
silica from bricks and cement or other masonry products, arsenic and chromium from chemically
treated lumber. Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of
work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work with
approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed to filter out
microscopic particles.
