CSG50GL Cutting Tool
Personal safety:
•Stay alert, watch what you are doing, and use
common sense when operating a power tool.
Do not use a power tool while you are tired or
under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or
medication. A moment of inattention while
operating power tools may result in serious
personal injury.
•Use safety equipment. Always wear eye
protection. Safety equipment such as dust mask,
non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing
protection used for appropriate conditions will
reduce personal injuries.
•Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the switch
is in the off-position before plugging in.
Carrying power tools with your finger on the
switch or plugging in power tools that have the
switch on invites accidents.
•Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and
balance at all times. This enables better control
of the power tool in unexpected situations.
•Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or
jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves
away from moving parts. Loose clothes,
jewelry, or long hair can be caught in moving
parts.
Failure to observe these warnings could result in
severe injury or death.
GENERAL SAFETY RULES
Power tool use and care:
•Do not force the power tool. Use the correct
power tool for your application. The correct
power tool will do the job better and safer at the
rate for which it was designed.
•Do not use the power tool if the switch does
not turn it on and off. Any power tool that
cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous
and must be repaired.
•Disconnect the plug from the power source
before making any adjustments, changing
accessories, or storing power tools. Such
preventive safety measures reduce the risk of
starting the power tool accidentally.
•Store idle power tools out of the reach of
children and do not allow persons unfamiliar
with the power tool or these instructions to
operate the power tool. Power tools are
dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
•Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment
or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts,
and any other condition that may affect the
power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the
power tool repaired before use. Many
accidents are caused by poorly maintained
power tools.
•Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges
are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
•Use the power tool, accessories, and tool bits,
etc., in accordance with these instructions
and in the manner intended for the particular
type of power tool, taking into account the
working conditions and the work to be
performed. Use of the power tool for operations
different from those intended could result in a
hazardous situation.
Failure to observe these warnings could result in
severe injury or death.
Service:
Have your power tool serviced by a qualified
repair person using only identical replacement
parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power
tool is maintained.
Failure to observe this warning could result in
severe injury or death.
