26. Keep safety guards in place at all times when
machine is in use. If removed for maintenance
purposes, use extreme caution and replace the
guards immediately after completion of
maintenance.
27. Check damaged parts. Before further use of
machine, 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 is
damaged should be properly repaired or
replaced.

scrap material, oil and grease.
29. Keep visitors a safe distance from work area.
Keep children away.

master switches or by removing starter keys.

around, carrying on a conversation and “horse-
play” are careless acts that can result in serious
injury.
32. Maintain a balanced stance at all times so that
you do not fall into blade or other moving parts.
Do not overreach or use excessive force to
perform any machine operation.

rate. Do not force a tool or attachment to do a
job for which it was not designed. The right tool
will do the job better and more safely.
34. Use recommended accessories; improper
accessories may be hazardous.
35. Maintain tools with care. Keep blades sharp and
clean for best and safest performance. Follow
instructions for lubricating and changing

or compressed air to remove chips or debris —
not your hands.

pieces from area before starting machine.

expose machine to rain or use in wet or damp
