General Safety Rules
For Bench Top Tools
Work Area
G
Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered
benches and dark areas invite accidents.
G
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.
G
Keep bystanders, children and visitors away
while operating a power tool. Distractions
can cause you to lose control.
G
Store idle tools out of reach of children and
other untrained persons. Tools are danger-
ous in the hands of untrained users.
G
Do not leave tool running unattended, turn
power off. Do not leave tool until it comes to a
complete stop.
G
MAKE WORKSHOP CHILDPROOF with pad
lock, master switches, or by removing starter
keys.
Electrical Safety
G
Before plugging in the tool, be certain the
outlet voltage supplied is compatible with
the voltage marked on the nameplate within
10%. An outlet voltage incompatible with that
specified on the nameplate can result in serious
hazards and damage to the tool.
G
Double insulated tools are equipped with a
polarized plug (one blade is wider than the
other). This plug will fit in a polarized outlet
only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in
the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does
not fit, contact a qualified electrician to
install a polarized outlet. Do not change the
plug in any way. Double insulation eliminates
the need for the three wire grounded
powercord and grounded power supply.
G
Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces
such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrig-
erators. There is an increased risk of electric
shock if your body is grounded.
Safety

) symbol listed BELOW and other safety precautions, may result in serious personal injury.
"SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS"
G
Do not expose power tools to rain or wet
conditions. Water entering a power tool will
increase the risk of electric shock.
G
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. Damaged cords increase
the risk of electric shock.
G
When operating a power tool outside, use an
outdoor extension cord marked "W-A" or
"W". These cords are rated for outdoor use and
reduce the risk of electric shock.
Personal Safety
G
Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use
common sense when operating a power
tool. A moment of inattention or use of drugs,
alcohol or medication while operating power
tools can be dangerous.
G
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing
or jewelry. Contain long hair. Keep your
hair, clothing and gloves away from moving
parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can
be caught in moving parts. Roll long sleeves
above elbows. Rubber gloves and non-skid
footwear
are
working outdoors.
G
Avoid accidental starting. Be sure switch is
"OFF" before plugging in. Carrying tools with
your finger on the switch or plugging in tools
that have the switch "ON" invites accidents.
G
Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before
turning the tool "ON". A wrench or a key that
is left attached to a rotating part of the tool will
be thrown.
G
Do not overreach, keep proper footing and
balance at all times. Proper footing and bal-
ance enables better control of the tool in unex-
pected situations.
G
Do not stand on tool or its stand. Serious
injury may occur if the tool is tipped or if the
cutting tool is accidentally contacted. Do not
store materials on or near the tool such that it is
necessary to stand on the tool or its stand to
reach them.
