and/or serious personal injury.
SAVE THESE 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 benches invite
injuries.
• 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 at a safe
distance from work area.
• MAKE WORKSHOP KID PROOF with padlocks, master switches,
or by removing starter 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 and 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. The following table 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.
