WARNING

POWER TOOL SAFETY

Read all safety warnings and instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and

instructions may result in electric shock, ﬁre and/or serious injury.

Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.

WORK AREA SAFETY

1. Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas

invite accidents.

2. Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the

presence of ﬂammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks

which may ignite the dust or fumes.

3. Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool.

Distractions can cause you to lose control.

ELECTRICAL SAFETY

1. Double insulated tools are equipped with a polarized plug (one blade is

wider than the other). This plug will only ﬁt into a polarized plug one way.

2. If the plug does not ﬁt into the outlet properly, reverse the plug. If it still

does not ﬁt, contact a qualiﬁed electrician to install a polarized outlet. Do

not alter the plug in any way. Double insulation eliminates the need for

the three-pronged grounded power cord and grounded power supply

system.

3. Avoid contact between the operator’s body and grounded surfaces such

as pipes, radiators, ranges, and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of

electric shock if the operator’s body is grounded.

4. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering the

power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.

5. Do not abuse the cord. Do not use the power cord to carry the tool or

to pull the plug out of the outlet. Keep the power cord away from heat,

oil, sharp edges, and moving parts. Replace a damaged power cord

immediately. A damaged power cord increases the risk of electric shock.

6. When operating a power tool outdoors, use an outdoor-rated extension

cord type

7. “W-A” or “W”. These cords are rated for outdoor use and they reduce the

risk of electric shock.

PERSONAL SAFETY

1. Stay alert, be aware of the surroundings, and use common sense when

operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while tired or under the

inﬂuence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment of inattention while

operating a power tool may result in serious personal injury.

2. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry.

3. Contain long hair. Keep hair, clothing, and gloves away from moving

parts. Loose clothing, jewelry, or long hair can get caught in moving parts.

4. Avoid accidental start-ups. Verify that the switch is in the OFF position

before plugging in the tool. Carrying a power tool with a ﬁnger on the

switch or plugging in a tool that has the switch in the ON position invites

accidents.

5. Remove adjusting keys and wrenches before turning the tool ON. A

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

in personal injury.

6. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Proper

footing and balance allows the operator to maintain better control of the

tool in unexpected situations.

7. Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection.

8. Use a dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, a hardhat, or hearing protection

when appropriate

USE AND CARE OF POWER TOOLS

1. Use clamps or another practical means to secure and support the

workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the work in a hand or against the

body is not stable, and may lead to loss of control.

2. Do not force the tool. Use the correct tool for the application. The correct

tool will do the job better and safer when used at the rate that it was

designed to work at.

3. Do not use a power tool if it cannot be turned ON or OFF using the power

switch. A tool that cannot be controlled using the switch is dangerous,

and must be repaired.

4. Disconnect the plug from the outlet before making any adjustments,

changing accessories, or storing the tool. Such preventive safety

measures reduce the risk of accidental start-ups.

5. When power tools are not in use, store them out of the reach of children

or untrained persons. Tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained

users.

6. Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly

maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind,

and are easier to control.

7. Inspect the tool for misalignment or binding of moving parts, broken

parts, and any other condition that may affect the operation of the tool. If

it is damaged, have the tool serviced before using it. Many accidents are

caused by poorly maintained tools.

8. Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for this

model. Accessories that are suitable for one tool may become hazardous

when used with another tool.

SERVICE

1. Tool servicing must be performed by qualiﬁed personnel. Service or

maintenance performed by non-qualiﬁed personnel could result in a risk

of injury.

2. When servicing a tool, use only identical replacement parts. Follow

the instructions in the Maintenance section of this Manual. The use of

unauthorized parts or failure to follow the instructions in the Maintenance

section of this Manual may create a risk of electric shock or injury.

SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES

The rating plate on the tool shows certain safety symbols. These symbols

represent important safety information regarding the use of the tool and must

be followed:

Hearing, eye and breathing protection must be worn

Double insulated for extra protection

WARNING

For your safety, do not plug the engraving tool into the power source or attempt

to operate the tool until you have read and understood these Operating

Instructions.

Always use safety glasses, ear protection and a dust mask when operating the

engraving tool. Using these safety items will protect you against ﬂying particles

during the engraving process.

Apply only light pressure to the engraving tool during operation. Too much

pressure may damage the surface being engraved and damage the tip of the

engraving tool.

Disconnect the plug from the power source before making any adjustments,

changing accessories or storing the tool.

Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord to carry the tools or pull the plug

from an outlet. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts.

Replace damaged cords immediately.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

The warnings, precautions, and instructions discussed in this manual cannot

cover all possible conditions and situations that may occur. The operator must

understand that common sense and caution are factors which cannot be built

into this product, but must be supplied by the operator.

1. Use only accessories recommended or sold by manufacturer.

2. DO NOT disassemble the Engraver. Take it to a qualiﬁed professional

when service or repair is required.

3. DO NOT operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the

presence of ﬂammable liquids, gasses or dust. Power tools create sparks

which may ignite the dust or fumes.

2. Wear approved safety eye/face shield, ear defenders and hand

protection.

3. When not in use, disconnect from the power source and store in a safe,

dry childproof location.

4. Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators,
