tool, a guard or other part that is damaged should be
carefully checked to determine that it will operate
properly and perform its intended function. Check for
alignment of moving parts, binding of moving parts,
breakage of parts, mounting and any other conditions
that may affect its operation. A guard or other part that

CORDS periodically and, if damaged, have repaired by
a qualified service technician. Stay constantly aware of
cord location and keep it well away from the rotating
wheel.
■
NEVER USE IN AN EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERE.
