FOLLOW THESE STEPS TO MAINTAIN SAFE WORKING CONDITIONS AND GOOD WORKING 
CONDITION OF POWER TOOLS.

 IMPROPER CARE CAN RESULT IN ELECTRIC SHOCK OR SERIOUS 

INJURY. 

Secure and support the work piece using clamps. Do not use your hands to hold the piece in place. 
Use the correct tool for the job. Using the correct tool is safer and faster. 
Make sure the power switch is in good working order. If the power switch no longer turns the tool “ON” 
or “OFF”, discontinue use, and have the tool replaced or repaired.  
Remove the power cord from the power source before storage, changing accessories, or moving the 
tool.  
Keep out of reach of children, or any untrained person. Store tools in a safe and dry place.  
Keep tools clean, and cutting tools sharp. Maintaining tools with proper care will increase the life of the 
power tool, and reduce the risk of injury.  
Check to be sure all moving parts are free from binding and are properly aligned.  
Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for your tool model.
