KNOW YOUR ROUTER

Before attempting to use your router, familiarize yourself with all operating features and safety requirements. See Figure I.

WARNING:

Do not allow familiarity with your router to make you careless. Remember that a careless fraction of a second is sufficient to inflict severe injury.

WARNING:

Always wear safety goggles or safety glasses with side shields when operating your router. Failure to do so could result in dust, shavings, loose particles or foreign objects being thrown into your eyes, causing possible serious injury.
