B. FOR ALL DOUBLE-INSULATED
TOOLS
1. Replacement parts
When servicing use only identical replacement
parts.
2. Polarized Plugs
To reduce the risk of electric shock, this
equipment has 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 the proper outlet. Do not change the plug
in any way.
C. FOR ALL TOOLS AS APPLICABLE
1. KEEP GUARDS IN PLACE and in working
order.
2. REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS AND
WRENCHES. Form habit of checking to see
that keys and adjusting wrenches are removed
from tool before turning it on.
3. KEEP WORK AREA CLEAN. Cluttered
areas and benches invite accidents.
4. 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.
5. KEEP CHILDREN AWAY. All visitors
should be kept safe distance from work area.
6. MAKE WORKSHOP KID PROOF with
padlocks, master switches, or by removing
starter keys.
7. DON'T FORCE TOOL. It will do the job
better and safer at the rate for which it was
designed.
8. USE RIGHT TOOL. Don't force tool or
attachment to do a job for which it was not
designed.
9. 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 cause a drop in line voltage resulting
in loss of power and overheating. Table 1
shows the correct size to use depending on
cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If in
doubt, use the next heavier gage. The smaller
the gage number, the heavier the cord.
10. 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
recommended. Wear protective hair covering
to contain long hair.
Exception: The reference to gloves may be
omitted from the instructions for a grinder.
11. ALWAYS USE SAFETY GLASSES. Also
use face or dust mask if cutting operation is
dusty. Everyday eyeglasses only have impact
resistant lenses, they are NOT safety glasses.
12. 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.
13. DON'T OVERREACH. Keep proper footing
and balance at all times.
14. MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE. Keep
tools sharp and clean for best and safest
performance. Follow instructions for lubricating
and changing accessories.
15. DISCONNECT TOOLS before servicing;
when changing accessories, such as blades,
bits, cutters, and the like.
16. REDUCE THE RISK OF
UNINTENTIONAL STARTING. Make
sure switch is in off position before plugging in.
17. USE RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES.
Consult the owner's manual for recommended
accessories. The use of improper accessories
may cause risk of injury to persons.
18. NEVER STAND ON TOOL. Serious injury
could occur if the tool is tipped or if the cutting
tool is unintentionally contacted.
19. CHECK DAMAGED PARTS. Before
further use of the tool, a guard or other part
that is damaged should be carefully 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.
20. DIRECTION OF FEED. Feed work into a
blade or cutter against the direction of rotation
of the blade or cutter only.
21. NEVER LEAVE TOOL RUNNING
UNATTENDED. TURN POWER OFF.
Don't leave tool until it comes to a complete
stop.
Exception: The instructions for a bench grinder
need not contain the statement pertaining to
leaving the tool until it comes to a complete
stop.
