Porter-Cable 310 Laminate Trimmer User Manual


 
6
1. Use clamps or other practical way to secure and support the
workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the work by hand or against your
body is unstable and may lead to loss of control.
2. Tighten Collet nut securely to prevent the bit from slipping. Never
tighten collet nut without a bit. Never adjust depth of cut while motor is
running. A slip at this time may cause personal injury, or damage to cutter
or workpiece.
3. Be sure cord set is free and will not “hang up” during trimming
operations. A tangled cord could result in personal injury, or damage to
work.
4. Keep hands clear of cutter when motor is running. A moment of
inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal
injury.
5. Maintain firm grip on trimmer when starting motor to resist starting
torque. Loss of control could result, causing personal injury, or damage to
work.
6. Keep cutter clear of all foreign objects while motor is running. Provide
clearance under workpiece for the bit when through-cutting. This
enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
7. Be sure motor has completely stopped before setting trimmer down
between operations. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of
personal injury, or damage to work.
8. Never touch bit immediately after use. It may be extremely hot.
9. Do not use Laminate Trimmer motor without the Laminate Trimmer
Base installed. Loss of control could result, causing personal injury, or
damage to work.
10. Wear eye and hearing protection. Always use safety glasses. Everyday
eyeglasses are NOT safety glasses. USE CERTIFIED SAFETY
EQUIPMENT. Eye protection equipment should comply with ANSI Z87.1
standards. Hearing equipment should comply with ANSI S3.19 standards.
11. Use of this tool can generate and disburse dust or
other airborne particles, including wood dust, crystalline silica dust
and asbestos dust. Direct particles away from face and body. Always
operate tool in well ventilated area and provide for proper dust removal.
Use dust collection system wherever possible. Exposure to the dust may
cause serious and permanent respiratory or other injury, including silicosis
(a serious lung disease), cancer, and death. Avoid breathing the dust, and
avoid prolonged contact with dust. Allowing dust to get into your mouth or
eyes, or lay on your skin may promote absorption of harmful material.
Always use properly fitting NIOSH/OSHA approved respiratory protection
appropriate for the dust exposure, and wash exposed areas with soap and
water.
