SAFETY GUIDELINES

TLGS625

6.   Disconnect tool from power source before

     cleaning, servicing, changing parts/accessor-

      ies or when not in use.

7.   Protect yourself against electric shocks when 

      working on electrical equipment. Avoid body

      contact with grounded surfaces. There is an 

      increased chance of electrical shock if your

      body is grounded.

8.   Do not expose tool to rain or water entering a 

      power tool will increase the risk of electric shock. 
9.   Do not disconnect the power cord in place of 

      using the ON/OFF switch on the tool. This will 

      prevent an accidental startup when the power 

      cord is plugged into the power supply. 

10. Do not alter any parts of the tool or accessories. 

      All parts and accessories are designed with  

      built-in safety features that may be compro-

      mised if altered.

11. Make certain the power source conforms to 

      requirements of your equipment.

12. Do not allow the tool to run without load for an 

      extended period of time, as this will shorten

      its life.

13. Do not cover the air vents. Proper cooling of 

      the motor is necessary to ensure normal life 

      of normal life of the tool.

14. Avoid unintentional starting. Ensure the switch 

       is off when connecting to the power source.

15. In the event of a power failure, turn off the 

      machine as soon as the power is interrupted. 

      interrupted. The possibility of accidental injury 

     could occur if the power returns and the unit is 

      not switched off.

16. Disconnect the power source before installing 

      or servicing the tool.

17. After making adjustments, make sure that any 

      adjustment devices are securely tightened.

18. Remove adjusting keys and wrenches before 

      turning the tool on. A wrench or a key that is left 

      attached to a rotating part of the tool increases 

      the risk of personal injury.

19. Never force the tool. Excessive pressure could

      break the tool, resulting in damage to your 

      workpiece or serious personal injury. If your tool 

      runs smoothly under no load, but does not run 

      smoothly under load, then excessive pressure 

      is being used.

20. Do not touch an operating motor. Motors can 

      operate at high temperatures.

21. Only use accessories that are specifically 

      designed for use with the tool. Ensure the

      accessory is tightly installed.

22. Only use an accessory that exceeds the No 

      Load Speed rating.

23. Do not touch an operating motor. Motors can 

      operate at high temperatures and can cause 

      a burn injury.

24. Insert the power cord plug directly to the power 

      supply whenever possible. Use extension cords 

      or surge protectors only when the tool's power 

      cord cannot reach a power supply from the work 

      area.

25. Do not operate this tool if the power cord is fr-

      ayed or damaged as an electric shock may  

      occur, resulting in personal injury or property 

      damage.

26. Inspect the tool's power cord for cracks, fraying 

      or other faults in the insulation or plug before

      each use.

27. Discontinue use if a power cord feels more than

      comfortably warm while operating the tool. 

28. Keep all connections dry and off the ground to 

      reduce the risk of electric shock. Do not touch 

      plug with wet hands.

29. Do not allow people, mobile equipment or ve-

      hicles to pass over unprotected power cords.

30. This tool vibrates during use. Repeated or long-

      term exposure to vibration may cause tempo-

      rary or permanent physical injury, particularly 

      to the hands, arms and shoulders.
