ADDITIONAL SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES

1. HOLD POWER TOOL BY INSULATED GRIPPING SURFACES WHEN
PERFORMING AN OPERATION WHERE THE CUTTING TOOL MAY
CONTACT HIDDEN WIRING OR ITS OWN CORD. Contact with a "live" wire will
make exposed metal parts of the tool "live" and shock the operator.
2. USE CLAMPS OR OTHER PRACTICAL WAY TO SECURE AND SUPPORT
THE WORKPIECE TO A STABLE PLATFORM. Holding the work by hand or
against your body is unstable and may lead to loss of control.
3. DISCONNECT TOOL FROM POWER SOURCE before making adjustments
or changing bits.
4. TIGHTEN COLLET NUT securely to prevent the bit from slipping.
5. USE A CLAMP or some other device to hold the workpiece rigidly in position.
and clear the path of the tool of obstructions.
6. PROVIDE CLEARANCE under workpiece for router bit when through-cutting.
7. CHECK TO SEE THAT THE CORD will not "hang up" during routing operation.
8. CLEAR THE ROUTER BIT AREA before starting motor.
9. MAINTAIN FIRM GRIP on router to resist starting torque.
10. KEEP HANDS CLEAR OF BIT when motor is running to prevent personal injury.
11. KEEP CUTTING PRESSURE CONSTANT. Do not overload motor.
12. LET THE MOTOR COME TO A COMPLETE STOP before putting the tool down.
13. NEVER TOUCH router bits after use. They may be extremely hot.
14. NEVER TIGHTEN COLLET NUT without a bit.
15. DO NOT USE ROUTER BITS with a diameter in excess of 2-1/2" at RPM above
13,000. Router bits up to 3-1/2" in diameter can be used when speed control is
set for 13,000 RPM or less.
16. ALWAYS KEEP CHIP SHIELD clean and in place.
17. AVOID "CLIMB-CUTTING" (see "Using The Router" section in this manual).
"Climb-cutting" increases the chance for loss of control resulting in possible
personal injury.
18. DO NOT HAND-HOLD THE ROUTER IN AN UPSIDE-DOWN OR HORIZONTAL
POSITION. The motor can separate from the base if not properly attached
according to the instructions.
19. 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.
20.
airborne particles, including wood dust, crystalline silica dust and asbestos
dust. Direct particles away from face and body. Always operate tool in well
ventilated area and provide for proper dust removal. Use dust collection system
wherever possible. Exposure to the dust may cause serious and permanent
respiratory or other injury, including silicosis (a serious lung disease), cancer,
and death. Avoid breathing the dust, and avoid prolonged contact with dust.
Allowing dust to get into your mouth or eyes, or lay on your skin may promote
absorption of harmful material. Always use properly fitting NIOSH/OSHA
approved respiratory protection appropriate for the dust exposure, and wash
exposed areas with soap and water.
Use of this tool can generate and disburse dust or other
