1. KNOW YOUR POWER TOOL. Read owner's
manual carefully. Learn its applications and
limitations as well as the specific potential
hazards related to this tool.
2. GUARD AGAINST ELECTRICAL SHOCK
BY PREVENTING BODY CONTACT WITH
GROUNDED SURFACES. For example:
Pipes, radiators, ranges, refrigerator
enclosures.
3. KEEP WORK AREA CLEAN. Cluttered areas
and benches invite accidents.
4. AVOID DANGEROUS ENVIRONMENT.
Don't use power tools in damp or wet locations
or expose to rain. Keep work area well lit.
5. KEEP CHILDREN AND VISITORS AWAY.
All visitors should wear safety glasses and be
kept a safe distance from work area. Do not let
visitors contact tool or extension cord.
6. STORE IDLE TOOLS. When not in use tools
should be stored in a dry, high or locked-up
place – out of the reach of children.
7. DON'T FORCE TOOL. It will do the job better
and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
8. USE RIGHT TOOL. Don't force small tool or
attachment to do the job of a heavy duty tool.
Don't use tool for purpose not intended – for
example – Don't use a circular saw for cutting
tree limbs or logs.
9. DRESS PROPERLY. Do not wear loose
clothing or jewelry. They can be caught in
moving parts. Rubber gloves and nonskid
footwear are recommended when working
outdoors. Also, wear protective hair covering
to contain long hair and keep it from being
drawn into air vents.
10. ALWAYS WEAR SAFETY GLASSES WITH
SIDE SHIELDS. Everyday eyeglasses have
only impact resistant lenses; they are NOT
safety glasses.
11. PROTECT YOUR LUNGS. Wear a face or
dust mask if operation is dusty.
12. PROTECT YOUR HEARING. Wear hearing
protection during extended periods of
operation.
13. DON'T ABUSE CORD. Never carry tool by
cord or yank it to disconnect from receptacle.
Keep cord from heat, oil, and sharp edges.
14. SECURE WORK. Use clamps or a vise to
hold work. It's safer than using your hand and
it frees both hands to operate tool.
15. DON'T OVERREACH. Keep proper footing
and balance at all times. Do not use on a
ladder or unstable support.
16. MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE. Keep tools
sharp at all times, and clean for best and
safest performance. Follow instructions for
lubricating and changing accessories.
17. DISCONNECT TOOLS. When not in use,
before servicing, or when changing
attachments, blades, bits, cutters, etc., all
tools should be disconnected.
18. REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS AND
WRENCHES. Form habit of checking to see
that keys and adjusting wrenches are removed
from tool before turning it on.
19. AVOID ACCIDENTAL STARTING. Don't
carry plugged-in tool with finger on switch. Be
sure switch is off when plugging in.
20. 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. A wire gage size (A.W.G.) of at
least 16 is recommended for an extension
cord 50 feet or less in length. A cord exceeding
100 feet is not recommended. If in doubt, use
the next heavier gage. The smaller the gage
number, the heavier the cord.
21. OUTDOOR USE EXTENSION CORDS.
When tool is used outdoors, use only extension
cords intended for use outdoors. Outdoor
approved cords are marked with the suffix W-
A, for example - SJTW-A or SJOW-A.
22. KEEP BLADES CLEAN AND SHARP. Sharp
blades minimize stalling and kickback.
23. KEEP HANDS AWAY FROM CUTTING
AREA. Keep hands away from blades. Do not
reach underneath work while blade is rotating.
WARNING: BLADES COAST AFTER TURN
OFF.
24. NEVER USE IN AN EXPLOSIVE
ATMOSPHERE. Normal sparking of the motor
could ignite flammable liquids, gases, or
fumes.
