RECIPROCATING SAW
2
1) READ and become familiar with the entire Operator’s Manual. LEARN
the tool’s application, limitations and possible hazards.
2) KEEP GUARDS IN PLACE and in working order.
3) REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS AND WRENCHES. Form a habit of
checking to see that keys and adjusting wrenches are removed from the
tool before turning ON.
4) KEEP WORK AREA CLEAN. Cluttered areas and benches invite
accidents.
5) 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.
6) KEEP CHILDREN AWAY. All visitors should be kept at a safe distance
from work area.
7) MAKE WORKSHOP CHILDPROOF with padlocks.
8) DON’T FORCE THE TOOL. It will do the job better and safer at the
rate for which it was designed.
9) USE THE RIGHT TOOL. Do not force tool or attachment to do a job
for which it was not designed.
10) USE PROPER EXTENSION CORD. Make sure your extension cord
is in good condition. When using an extension cord, be sure to use one
heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. An undersized
cord will result in a drop in line voltage and in loss of power that will
cause the tool to overheat.
11) WEAR PROPER APPAREL. Do not wear loose clothing, gloves,
neckties, rings, bracelets, or other jewelry that may get caught in moving
parts. Non-slip footwear is recommended. Wear protective hair covering
to contain long hair.
12) ALWAYS WEAR EYE PROTECTION. Any Drill Press can throw
foreign objects into the eyes that could cause permanent eye damage.
ALWAYS wear Safety Goggles (not glasses). Everyday eyeglasses have
only impact-resistance lenses. They ARE NOT safety glasses.
13) SECURE WORK. Use clamps or a vise to hold work when practical.
It’s safer than using your hand and it frees both hands to operate tool.
