SAFETY RULES (CONTINUED)
•
Do not force tool. It will work most efficiently at the rate for
which it was designed.
•
Keep hands away from moving parts and cutting surfaces.
•
Never leave tool running unattended. Turn the power off and
do not leave tool until it comes to a complete stop.
•
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance.
•
Never stand on tool. Serious injury could occur if tool is tipped
or if blade is unintentionally contacted.
•
Know your tool. Learn the tool’s operation, application and
specific limitations.
•
Use recommended accessories (refer to page 19). Use of
improper accessories may cause risk of injury to persons.
•
Handle workpiece correctly. Protect hands from possible injury.
•
Turn machine off if it jams. Blade jams when it digs too deeply
into workpiece. (Motor force keeps it stuck in the work.)
•
Always keep drive, cutterhead and blade guards in place and in
proper operating condition.
•
Feed work into blade against direction of rotation.
CAUTION:
Think safety! Safety is a combination of operator com-
mon sense and alertness at all times when tool is being used.
WARNING:
Do not attempt to operate tool until it is completely
assembled according to the instructions.
