16. REDUCE THE RISK OF
UNINTENTIONAL STARTING.
Make sure switch is in off position before
plugging in.
17. USE RECOMMENDED ACCES-
SORIES.
Consult the owner’s manual for recom-
mended accessories. The use of improper
accessories may cause risk of injury to
persons.
18. NEVER STAND ON TOOL.
Serious injury could occur if the tool is
tipped or if the cutting tool is accidentally
contacted.
19. CHECK DAMAGED PARTS.
Before further use of the tool, a guard or
other part that is damaged should be care-
fully checked to determine that it will oper-
ate properly and perform its intended func-
tion - check for alignment of moving parts,
binding of moving parts, breakage of
parts, mounting, and any other conditions
that may affect its operation. A guard or
other part that is damaged should be prop-
erly repaired or replaced.
20. DIRECTION OF FEED.
Feed work into a blade or cutter against
the direction of rotation of the blade or cut-
ter only.
EXTENSION CORDS.
Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. When using an extension cord, be
sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. An undersized
cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. Table 1
shows the correct size to use depending on cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If
in doubt, use the next heavier gage. The smaller the gage number, the heavier the cord.
21. NEVER LEAVE TOOL RUNNING
UNATTENDED. TURN POWER OFF.
Don’t leave tool until it comes to a com-
plete stop.
22. When servicing use only identical
replacement parts.
23. POLARIZED PLUGS.
To reduce the risk of electric shock, this
equipment has a polarized plug (one blade
is wider than the other). This plug will fit in
a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug
does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the
plug. If it still does not fit, contact a quali-
fied electrician to install the proper outlet.
Do not change the plug in any way.
VOLTAGE WARNING:
Before connecting the tool to a power
source (receptacle, outlet, etc.) be sure
the voltage supplied is the same as that
specified on the nameplate of the tool. A
power source with voltage greater than
that specified for the tool can result in
SERIOUS INJURY to the user - as well as
damage to the tool. If in doubt, DO NOT
PLUG IN THE TOOL. Using a power
source with voltage less than the name-
plate rating is harmful to the motor.
