ELECTRICAL SAFETY
1. Grounded tools must be plugged into an outlet properly installed and
grounded in accordance with all codes and ordinances. Never remove the
grounding prong or modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter
plugs.Checkwithaqualiedelectricianifyouareindoubtastowhether
the outlet is properly grounded. If the tools should electrically malfunction or
break down, grounding provides a low resistance path to carry electricity away
from the user.
2. Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators,
ranges, and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your
body is grounded.
3. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering power
equipment will increase the risk of electric shock.
4. Do not abuse the Power Cord. Never use the Power Cord to pull the Plug
from an outlet. Keep the Power Cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges, or
moving parts. Replace damaged Power Cords immediately. Damaged
Power Cords increase the risk of electric shock.
PERSONAL SAFETY
1. Stay alert. Watch what you are doing, and use common sense when
operating the Wood Shaper. Do not use the tool while tired or under the
inuenceofdrugs,alcohol,ormedication. A moment of inattention while
operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
2. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Contain long hair.
Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves away from moving parts. Loose
clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
3. Use the right product for the job. Do not attempt to force small equipment to
do the work of larger industrial equipment. There are certain applications for
which this product was designed. It will do the job better and safer at the rate
and capacity for which it was designed. Do not modify this product, and do not
use this product for a purpose for which it was not designed.
area from debris such as chips and sparks. Provide barriers or shields as
needed. Children and visitors should never be in the work area.
4. Avoid accidental starting. Be sure the Power Switch is off before plugging

in. Plugging in power equipment with the Power Switch on, invites accidents.
5. Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before turning the power tool on. A
wrench or a key that is left attached to a rotating part of the Wood Shaper may
result in personal injury.
6. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Proper
footing and balance enables better control of the Wood Shaper in unexpected
situations.
7. Use safety equipment. Always wear ANSI-approved safety impact
eye goggles. Dust mask or respirator, and hearing protection must be
used for appropriate conditions.
TOOL USE AND CARE
1. Do not force the Wood Shaper. Use the correct tool for your application.
The correct tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it is designed.
2. Do not use the Wood Shaper if the Power Switch does not turn it on or off.
Any tool that cannot be controlled with the Power Switch is dangerous and must
be replaced.
3. Disconnect the Power Cord Plug from the power source before making any
adjustments, changing accessories, or storing the Wood Shaper. Such
preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally.
4. Store idle tools and equipment out of reach of children and other untrained
persons. Tools and equipment are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
5. Maintain this product with care. Keep the Wood Shaper and its Table clean
and in proper working order. Properly maintained tools and equipment are
easier to control. Do not use damaged tools and equipment. Tag damaged tools
and equipment “Do not use” until repaired.
7. Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for your
model. Accessories that may be suitable for one product may become
hazardous when used on another product.
6. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts,
and any other condition that may affect the Wood Shaper’s operation. If
damaged, have the tool serviced before using. Many accidents are caused
by poorly maintained tools.
