Learning the machine's application, limitations, and
specific hazards will greatly minimize the possibility of
accidents and injury.

clothing, gloves, neckties, rings, bracelets, or other
jewelry which may get caught in moving parts.
Nonslip footwear is recommended. Wear protective
hair covering to contain long hair.

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.

CONDITION. Keep tools sharp and clean for best and safest
performance. Follow instructions for lubricating and changing
accessories. Poorly maintained tools and machines can
further damage the tool or machine and/or cause injury.

injury to the user.
14. 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 power and overheating. See the
Extension Cord Chart for the correct size depending
on the cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If in
doubt, use the next heavier gauge . The smaller the
gauge number, the heavier the cord.
15. SECURE THE WORKPIECE. Use clamps or a vise to
hold the workpiece when practical. Loss of control of
a workpiece can cause injury.
16. FEED THE WORKPIECE AGAINST THE DIRECTION OF
THE ROTATION OF THE BLADE, CUTTER, OR
ABRASIVE SURFACE. Feeding it from the other
direction will cause the workpiece to be thrown out at
high speed.
17. DON'T FORCE THE WORKPIECE ON THE MACHINE.
Damage to the machine and/or injury may result.
18. DON'T OVERREACH. Loss of balance can make you
fall into a working machine, causing injury.

tool tips, or if you accidentally contact the cutting tool.
20. NEVER LEAVE THE MACHINE RUNNING UNATTENDED.
TURN THE POWER OFF . Don't leave the machine until it
comes to a complete stop. A child or visitor could be injured.

installing or removing accessories, before adjusting or
changing set-ups, or when making repairs. An
accidental start-up can cause injury.
22. MAKE YOUR WORKSHOP CHILDPROOF WITH
PADLOCKS, MASTER SWITCHES, OR BY
REMOVING STARTER KEYS. The accidental start-up
of a machine by a child or visitor could cause injury.
23. STAY ALERT, WATCH WHAT YOU ARE DOING, AND
USE COMMON SENSE. DO NOT USE THE
