Failure to follow these rules may result in serious personal injury.
1. FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY, READ THE
INSTRUCTION MANUAL BEFORE OPERATING
THE MACHINE. Learning the machine’s
application, limitations, and specific hazards
will greatly minimize the possibility of
accidents and injury.
2. WEAR EYE AND HEARING PROTECTION.
ALWAYS USE SAFETY GLASSES. Everyday
eyeglasses are NOT safety glasses. USE
CERTIFIED SAFETY EQUIPMENT. Eye protection
equipment should comply with ANSI Z87.1
standards. Hearing equipment should comply
with ANSI S3.19 standards.
3. WEAR PROPER APPAREL. Do not wear loose
clothing, gloves, neckties, rings, bracelets, or
other jewelry which may get caught in moving
parts. Nonslip protective footwear is
recommended. Wear protective hair covering
to contain long hair.
4. DO NOT USE THE MACHINE IN A
DANGEROUS ENVIRONMENT. The use of
power tools in damp or wet locations or in
rain can cause shock or electrocution. Keep
your work area well-lit to prevent tripping or
placing arms, hands, and fingers in danger.
5. MAINTAIN ALL TOOLS AND MACHINES IN
PEAK CONDITION. Keep tools clean for best
and safest performance. Follow instructions
for changing accessories. Poorly maintained
tools and machines can further damage the
tool or machine and/or cause injury.
6. CHECK FOR DAMAGED PARTS. Before using
the machine, check for any damaged parts.
Check for alignment of moving parts, binding
of moving parts, breakage of parts, and any
other conditions that may affect its operation.
A guard or any other part that is damaged
should be properly repaired or replaced with
SuperMax Tools or factory authorized
replacement parts. Damaged parts can cause
further damage to the machine and/or injury.
7. KEEP THE WORK AREA CLEAN. Cluttered
areas and benches invite accidents.
8. KEEP CHILDREN AND VISITORS AWAY. Your
shop is a potentially dangerous environment.
Children and visitors can be injured.
9. REDUCE THE RISK OF UNINTENTIONAL
STARTING.
Make sure that the switch is in the “OFF”
position before plugging in the power cord. In
the event of a power failure, move the switch
to the “OFF” position. An accidental start-up
can cause injury. Do not touch the plug’s
metal prongs when unplugging or plugging in
the cord.
10. USE THE GUARDS. Check to see that all
guards are in place, secured, and working
correctly to prevent injury.
11. USE THE RIGHT MACHINE. Don’t force a
machine or an attachment to do a job for
which it was not designed. Damage to the
machine and/or injury may result.
12. USE RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES. The
use of accessories and attachments not
recommended by us may cause damage to
the machine or injury to the user.
13. USE THE PROPER EXTENSION CORD. Make
sure your extension cord is in good condition.
When using an extension cord, be sure to use
one heavy enough to carry the current your
product will draw. An undersized cord will
cause a drop in line voltage, resulting in loss of
