OPErATING INSTrUCTIONS BEFOrE USING THIS EQUIPMENT. Failure to follow all
instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious personal injury.
EXTENSION COrDS
Grounded tools require a three wire extension cord
use either a two or three wire extension cord. As the distance from the power supply outlet increases, you must
use a heavier gauge extension cord. using extension cords with inadequately sized wire causes a serious drop
in voltage, resulting in loss of power and possible tool damage. Refer to the table shown below to determine the
required minimum wire size.
The smaller the gauge number of the wire, the greater the capacity of the cord. for example: a 14-gauge cord
can carry a higher current than a 16-gauge cord. When using more than one extension cord to make up the
total length, be sure each cord contains at least the minimum wire size required. If you are using one extension
cord for more than one tool, add the nameplate amperes and use the sum to determine the required minimum
wire size.
Guidelines for Using Extension Cords
• If you are using an extension cord outdoors, be sure it is marked with the suffix "W-A" ("W" in Canada) to
indicate that it is acceptable for outdoor use.
• Be sure your extension cord is properly wired and in good electrical condition. Always replace a damaged
extension cord or have it repaired by a qualified person before using it.
• Protect your extension cords from sharp objects, excessive heat, and damp or wet areas.

WArNING:
cut away from blades!
• Always wear safety glasses or goggles. Normal prescription eye or sunglasses are not safety
glasses.
• Always hold the tool firmly. Do not leave the tool running unless hand held.
• Check your work area for proper clearances before cutting. This will avoid cutting into
unintended objects.
• Do not try to grasp or remove trimmings when the tool is running. Only remove trimmings when
the tool is switched off and disconnected from the power supply.
• Before switching on the tool, be sure the blade is not contacting the cutting objects.
