WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS
1. KEEP WORK AREA CLEAN. Cluttered areas invite injuries.
2. CONSIDER WORK AREA ENVIRONMENT. Don't use bench tools in
damp, wet, or poorly lit locations. Don't expose your tool to rain. Keep
the work area well lit. Don't use tools in the presence of flammable
gases or liquids.
3. KEEP CHILDREN AND BY STANDERS AWAY. All children should be
kept away from the work area. Don't let them handle machines, tools or
extension cords. Visitors can be a distraction and are difficult to protect
from injury.
4. GROUNDED TOOLS MUST BE PLUGGED INTO AN OUTLET THAT
ITSELF IS PROPERLY INSTALLED AND GROUNDED. Grounding
provides a low-resistance path to carry electricity to ground away from
the operator, should the tool malfunction electrically. Do not remove the
grounding prong from the plug or alter the plug in any way. If in doubt as
to whether the outlet is properly grounded according to code, check with
a qualified electrician.
5. GUARD AGAINST ELECTRIC SHOCK. Prevent body contact with
grounded surfaces: pipes, radiators, ranges, and refrigerator enclosures.
When your body is grounded the risk of electric shock increases. When
working wherever "live" electrical wires may be encountered, try to
ascertain whether there is a danger of shock. Even so, DO NOT TOUCH
ANY METAL PARTS OF THE TOOL while using it. Hold the tool only by
the plastic grip to prevent electric shock if you contact a live wire.
6. DO NOT ABUSE THE CORD. Never carry your bench tool by the cord
or pull on the cord to unplug it. Protect the cord from potential sources
of damage: heat, oil & solvents, sharp edges, or moving parts. Replace
damaged cords immediately.
7. WHEN WORKING OUTDOORS, USE AN OUTDOOR-RATED
EXTENSION CORD. An extension cord rated for outdoor use must be
marked "W-A" or "W".
8. DO NOT EXPOSE ELECTRICAL BENCH TOOLS TO MOISTURE.
Rain or wet conditions can cause water to enter the tool and lead to
electric shock.
9. USE 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 power and
overheating. The table below shows the correct size to use depending
on the cord length and name plate amperage rating. If in doubt, use
the next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the
cord.

10. STORE IDLE EQUIPMENT. Store equipment in a dry area to inhibit
rust. Equipment also should be in a high location or locked up to keep
out of reach of children.
11. DON'T FORCE THE TOOL. It will do the job better and more safely at
the rate for which it was intended.
12. USE THE RIGHT TOOL. Don't force a small tool or attachment to do
the work of a larger industrial tool. Don't use a tool for a purpose for
which it was not intended.
13. DRESS PROPERLY. Don't wear loose clothing or jewelry; they can
be caught in moving parts. Protective, non-electrically conductive
gloves and non-skid footwear are recommended when working. Wear
protective hair covering to contain long hair and keep it from harm.
