ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT INJURY RISKS. 

You can be shocked, burned, or killed by touching 

live electrical components or improperly grounded 

machinery. To reduce this risk, only allow qualified 

service  personnel  to  do  electrical  installation  or 

repair work, and always disconnect power before 

accessing or exposing electrical equipment.

DISCONNECT POWER FIRST.  Always  discon-

nect  machine  from  power  supply  BEFORE  mak-

ing  adjustments,  changing  tooling,  or  servicing 

machine.  This  prevents  an  injury  risk  from  unin-

tended  startup  or  contact  with  live  electrical  com-

ponents.

EYE PROTECTION. Always wear ANSI-approved 

safety glasses or a face shield when operating or 

observing  machinery  to  reduce  the  risk  of  eye 

injury or blindness from flying particles. Everyday 

eyeglasses are NOT approved safety glasses.

OWNER’S MANUAL. Read and understand this 

owner’s manual BEFORE using machine. 

TRAINED OPERATORS ONLY. Untrained oper-

ators  have  a  higher  risk  of  being  hurt  or  killed. 

Only  allow  trained/supervised  people  to  use  this 

machine.  When  machine  is  not  being  used,  dis-

connect  power,  remove  switch  keys,  or  lock-out 

machine to prevent unauthorized use—especially 

around children. Make your workshop kid proof!

DANGEROUS ENVIRONMENTS. Do  not  use 

machinery in areas that are wet, cluttered, or have 

poor lighting. Operating machinery in these areas 

greatly increases the risk of accidents and injury.

MENTAL ALERTNESS REQUIRED. Full mental 

alertness is required for safe operation of machin-

ery. Never operate under the influence of drugs or 

alcohol, when tired, or when distracted.

For Your Own Safety, Read Instruction 

Manual Before Operating This Machine

The purpose of safety symbols is to attract your attention to possible hazardous conditions. 

This manual uses a series of symbols and signal words intended to convey the level of impor-

tance of the safety messages. The progression of symbols is described below. Remember that 

safety messages by themselves do not eliminate danger and are not a substitute for proper 

accident prevention measures. Always use common sense and good judgment.

Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, 
MAY result in minor or moderate injury. It may also be used to alert 
against unsafe practices.

Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, 
COULD result in death or serious injury.

Indicates an imminently hazardous situation which, if not avoided, 
WILL result in death or serious injury.

Alerts the user to useful information about proper operation of the 
machine to avoid machine damage.
