ENCE STATEMENT
This equipment has been tested and found to comply
with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to
Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
These limits are designed to provide reasonable protec-
tion against harmful interference when the equipment
is operated in a commercial environment.
This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio
frequency energy and, if not installed and used in
accordance with the instruction manual, may cause
harmful interference to radio communications.
Operation of this equipment in a residential area is
likely to cause harmful interference in which case the
user will be required to correct the interference at his
own expense.
Unauthorized changes or modication to this system
can void the users authority to operate this equipment.
When the equipment requires a usb cable, it must be
shielded type.
For Canada
CLASS A NOTICE
This Class A digital apparatus meets all requirements of
the Canadian Interference-Causing Equipment Regula-
tions.
CLASSE A AVIS
Cet appareil numérique de la classe A respecte toutes
les exigences du Règlement sur le matériel brouilleur
du Canada.
NOTICE Grounding Instructions
In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding
provides a path of least resistance for electric current to
reduce the risk of electric shock. This tool is equipped
with an electric cord having an equipment-grounding
conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be
plugged into a matching outlet that is properly installed
and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordi-
nances.
Do not modify the plug provided - if it will not t the out-
let, have the proper outlet installed by a qualied electri-
cian.
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conduc-
tor can result in a risk of electric shock. The conductor
with insulation having an outer surface that is green with
or without yellow stripes is the equipment-grounding
conductor. If repair or replacement of the electric cord or
plug is necessary, do not connect the equipment-ground-
ing conductor to a live terminal.
Check with a qualied electrician or service personnel if
the grounding instructions are not completely understood,
or if in doubt as to whether the tool is properly grounded.
Use only 3-wire extension cords that have 3-prong
grounding plugs and 3-pole receptacles that accept the
tool's plug.
Repair or replace damaged or worn cord immediately.
WARNING
This is a Class A product. In a domestic environment this product may cause radio interference in
which case the user may be required to take adequate measures.

Operating Instructions
KEEP GUARDS IN PLACE and in working order.
REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS AND WRENCHES. Form
habit of checking to see that keys and adjusting wrenches
are removed from tool before turning it on.
KEEP WORK AREA CLEAN. Cluttered areas and bench-
es invite accidents.
DON'T USE IN DANGEROUS ENVIRONMENT. Don't
use power tools in damp or wet locations, or expose them
to rain. Keep work area well lighted.
KEEP CHILDREN AWAY. All visitors should be kept safe
distance from work area.
MAKE WORKSHOP KID PROOF with padlocks, master
switches, or by removing starker keys.
DON'T FORCE TOOL. It will do the job better and safer
at the rate for which it was designed.
USE RIGHT TOOL. Don't force tool or attachment to do a
job for which it was not designed.
USE PROPER EXTENSION CORD. Make sure your
extension cord is in good condition. When using an exten-
sion cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the
current your product will draw. An undersized cord will
cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and
overheating.
WEAR PROPER APPAREL. Do not wear loose clothing,
gloves, neckties, rings, bracelets, or other jewelry which
may get caught in moving parts. Nonslip footwear is rec-
ommended. Wear protective hair covering to contain long
hair.
USE SAFETY GLASSES, face or dust mask if cutting
or cleaning operation is dusty. Everyday eyeglasses only
have impact resistant lenses, they are NOT safety glasses.
SECURE WORK. Use clamps or a vise to hold work
when practical.
DON'T OVERREACH. Keep proper footing and balance
at all times.
MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE. Keep tools sharp and
clean for best and safest performance. Follow instructions
for lubricating and changing accessories.
DISCONNECT TOOLS before servicing; when changing
accessories, such as blades, bits, cutters, and the like.
REDUCE THE RISK OF UNINTENTIONAL START-
ING. Make sure switch is in off position before plugging
in.
USE RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES. Consult the
owner's manual for recommended accessories. The use of
improper accessories may cause risk of injury to persons.
NEVER STAND ON TOOL. Serious injury could occur
if the tool is tipped or if the cutting tool is unintentionally
contacted.
CHECK DAMAGED PARTS. Before further use of the
tool, a guard or other part that is damaged should be care-
fully checked to determine that it will operate properly
and perform its intended function - check for alignment of
moving parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of parts,
mounting, and any other conditions that may affect its
operation. A guard or other part that is damaged should be
properly repaired or replaced.
NEVER LEAVE TOOL RUNNING UNATTENDED.
TURN POWER OFF. Don't leave tool until it comes to a
complete stop.
USE POWER SUPPLY CORD WHICH IS ATTACHED
WITH PRODUCTS. Do not use other power supply cord.
