WARNING:
Do not attempt to use the tool until you read thoroughly
and understand completely the operator’s manual. Pay
close attention to the safety rules, including Dangers,
Warnings, and Cautions. If you use this tool properly
and only for what it is intended, you will enjoy years of
safe, reliable service.
The operation of any power tool can result in foreign objects being thrown into your eyes, which can
result in severe eye damage. Before beginning tool operation, always wear safety goggles or safety
glasses with side shields and a full face shield when needed. We recommend Wide Vision Safety
Mask for use over eyeglasses or standard safety glasses with side shields. Always wear eye
protection which is marked to comply with ANSI Z87.1.
