wrench or 
a key that is left attached to a rotating part of the tool may result 
in 
personal 
injury.

safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection must be used for appropriate 
conditions. 
TOOL 
USE AND CARE 
15.Use clamps 
or 
other practical way to secure and support the workpiece to 
a stable platform. Holdingthe work by handor against your body is unstable 
and may lead to 
loss 
of 
control. 
16. Do notforce tool. Usethe correct 
tool 
for your application. The correct tool 
will 
do 
the 
job better and safer at the rate for which 
it 
is designed. 
17. Do not use tool if switch does not turn 
it 
on 
or 
off. Any tool that cannot 
be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired. 
18. 
Disconnect the plugfrom the power source before making any adjustments, 
changing accessories, or storing the tool. Such preventive safety measures 
reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally.

Store idle tools out 
of
reach of children and other untrained persons. 
Tools 
are dangerous in the hands 
of 
untrained users. 
20. 
Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly 
maintained tools, withsharp cuttingedges are less likely tobind and are easier 
to control. 
21. 
Check for misalignment or binding 
of
moving parts, breakage of parts, and 
any other condition that may affect the tools operation. If damaged, have 
the tool serviced before using. Many accidents are caused by poorly main- 
tained tools.

Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for your 
model. Accessories that may be suitable for one tool, may becomehazardous 
when used on another tool.
