5. Do not alter any parts of the tool or accessories. All parts and accessories are designed with built-in safety
features that may be compromised if altered.
6. Make certain the power source conforms to requirements of your equipment.
7. When wiring an electrically driven device, follow all electrical and safety codes, as well as the most recent
Canadian Electrical Code (CE) and Canadian Centre for Occupational Health and Safety (CCOHS).
8. This device is only for use on 120 V (single phase) and is equipped with a 3-prong grounded power supply
cord and plug.
9. DO NOT use this device with a 2-prong wall receptacle.
a. Choose an available 3-prong power outlet.
b. Replace 2 prong outlet with a grounded 3-prong receptacle, installed in accordance with the CE Code
and local codes and ordinances.
WARNING! All wiring should be performed by a qualified electrician.
Electric Power Tool Precautions
1. Do not use a power tool with a broken or inoperative trigger/power switch or safety guard.
2. Make sure the power switch is in the OFF position before connecting the tool to the power supply.
3. Put the tool safety guard over the tool's cutting blade when not in use.
4. Do not place the tool down until the cutting blade has stopped moving.
The cutting blade may catch the surface of work material and wrench itself free, causing injury to the user
or others in the work area.
5. Never use a tool with a cracked or worn cutting blade. Change the cutting blade before using.
6. Do not start the tool when the cutting blade is touching the workpiece.
7. Always use both hands when operating the tool, unless the tool is designed for single hand use.
8. Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation where it may contact hidden wiring
or its own cord. Contact with a 'live' wire will electrify exposed metal parts and shock the operator.
9. Before using the tool on a workpiece, test the tool by running it at the highest no-load speed for at least
30 seconds in a safe position. Stop immediately if there is any abnormal vibration or wobbling that could
indicate poor installation of the cutting blade. Check the tool to determine the cause.
10. Do not allow the tool's motor to overload and/or overheat by taking work breaks.
11. When the tool is in operation, keep hands away from the cutting blade and the area it is being applied to.
12. Do not use the tool on any material containing asbestos.
13. Do not touch the cutting blade or the surface that has been cut with this tool immediately after use. The
surface will be hot and may cause an injury.
14. Do not allow persons who are not familiar with the tool or have not read these instructions to use the tool.
Power Cord
1. 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 .
a. When operating a power tool outside, use an outdoor extension cord marked W-A or W. These cords
are rated for outdoor use and reduce the risk of electric shock.
b. Use in conjunction with a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI). If operating a power tool in a damp
location is unavoidable, the use of a GFCI reduces the risk of electric shock. It is recommended that the
GFCI should have a rated residual current of 30 mA or less.
2. Do not operate this tool if the power cord is frayed or damaged as an electric shock may occur, resulting in
personal injury or property damage.
a. Inspect the tool's power cord for cracks, fraying or other faults in the insulation or plug before
each use.
b. Discontinue use if a power cord feels more than comfortably warm while operating the tool.
c. Have the power cord replaced by a qualified service technician.
