General Safety Instructions - Kreg Pro Serie Manual Del Propietário

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
1) Work area safety
a) Keep work area clean and well lit.
Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
b) Don't use power tools in a dangerous environment.
Don't use power tools in damp or wet locations,
or expose them to rain.
c) 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 fumes or dust.
d) Keep children and bystanders away while operating
a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.
e) Make your workshop child proof with padlocks,
master switches, or by removing starter keys.
2) Electrical safety
a) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions.
Water entering a power tool will increase the
risk of electric shock.
b) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying,
pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from
heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled
cords increase the risk of electric shock.
c) Use a proper extension cord and make sure it is
in good condition. When using an extension cord,
be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current
your machine draws. An undersized cord causes a drop
in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating.
Table 1 shows the correct cord gauge 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.
3) Personal safety
a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense
when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while
you are tired or under the influence of drugs,
alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention
while operating power tools may result in
serious personal injury.
b) Always wear safety glasses. Everyday eyeglasses only
have impact resistant lenses, they are NOT safety glasses.
c) Use safety equipment. Use a face or dust mask when the
cutting operation is dusty. Safety equipment such as a dust
mask, nonskid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection
used for appropriate conditions reduces personal injuries.
d) Avoid accidental starting. Make sure the switch is in the off
position before plugging in. Carrying power tools with your
finger on the switch or plugging in power tools with the
switch on invites accidents.
e) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the
power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating
part of the power tool may result in personal injury.
f) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance
at all times. This enables better control of the power tool
in unexpected situations.
g) Secure workpieces. Use clamps or a vise to hold work
when practical. This is safer than using your hand and it
frees both hands to operate the tool.
h) Never stand on the machine. Serious injury could occur
if the tool tips or if the cutting tool is unintentionally contacted.
i) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry.
Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts.
Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
j) If devices are provided for the connection of dust
extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are
connected and properly used. Use of these devices
can reduce dust-related hazards.
4) Power tool use and care
a) Keep guards in place and in working order.
b) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for
your application. The correct power tool will do the job better
and safer at the rate for which it was designed.

GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

c) Use right tool. Don't force tool or attachment to do
a job for which it was not designed.
d) Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it
on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with
the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
e) Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery
pack from the power tool before making any adjustments,
changing accessories, or storing power tools.
Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk
of starting the power tool accidentally.
f) Never leave tool running unattended. Turn power off.
Don't leave tool until it comes to a complete stop.
g) Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not
allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions
to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the
hands of untrained users.
h) Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of
moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that
may affect power tool operation. If damaged, have the power
tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly
maintained power tools.
i) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting
tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and
are easier to control.
j) Use the recommended speed for the cutting tool or accessory
and workpiece material.
k) Only use parts and accessories recommended
by the manufacturer. Consult the owner's manual
for recommended accessories.
Using improper accessories may cause personal injury.
l) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc., in
accordance with these instructions and in the manner intended
for the particular type of power tool, taking into account the
working conditions and the work to be performed.
Use of the power tool for operations different from those
intended could result in a hazardous situation.
5) Service
a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person
using only identical replacement parts. This ensures that the
safety of the power tool is maintained.
6) Additional Safety Rules for the DK5100 Pro Series Pocket-Hole Machine
a) Before making any adjustments or performing maintenance,
disconnect the machine from the air supply. Cycle the machine
via the foot switch several times to remove air from the system.
b) Do not operate the machine without the acrylic top plate
securely fastened in place using the provided lock-down screws.
Doing so increases your chances of injury or death.
c) Keep hands away from the rotating bits and workpiece
clamps when operating the machine.
d) Make sure the bits are completely withdrawn from the
workpiece and come to a complete stop before adjusting
the workpiece position.
e) Be aware of kickbacks. Kickbacks occur when the workpiece
binds while being drilled, causing it to twist, jump, and possibly
become airborne. To avoid kickbacks and potential injury,
always use sharp drill bits, keep the machine aligned
and properly maintained, and adequately
secure and support the workpiece.
f) Secure the machine to prevent tipping or sliding.
Never stand on the machine.
g) Follow all lubrication and maintenance practices detailed
in the instruction manual.
h) This machine is designed for a specific application.
Do not modify and/or use it for any other application.
If you have questions relative to the application of the
machine, DO NOT use it until you have contacted
Kreg Tool Company and have been advised accordingly.
