Safety Instructions for Machinery

7.ONLY ALLOW TRAINED AND PROP- ERLY SUPERVISED PERSONNEL TO OPERATE MACHINERY. Make sure operation instructions are safe and clearly understood.

8.KEEP CHILDREN AND VISITORS AWAY. Keep all children and visitors a safe dis- tance from the work area.

9.MAKE WORKSHOP CHILDPROOF. Use padlocks, master switches, and remove start switch keys.

10.NEVER LEAVE WHEN MACHINE IS RUNNING. Turn power OFF and allow all moving parts to come to a complete stop before leaving machine unattended.

11.DO NOT USE IN DANGEROUS ENVIRONMENTS. DO NOT use machin- ery in damp, wet locations, or where any flammable or noxious fumes may exist.

12.KEEP WORK AREA CLEAN AND WELL LIGHTED. Clutter and dark shadows may cause accidents.

13.USE A GROUNDED EXTENSION CORD RATED FOR THE MACHINE AMPERAGE. Grounded cords minimize shock hazards. Undersized cords create excessive heat. Always replace damaged extension cords.

14.ALWAYS DISCONNECT FROM POWER SOURCE BEFORE SERVICING MACHINERY. Make sure switch is in OFF position before reconnecting.

15.MAINTAIN MACHINERY WITH CARE. Keep blades sharp and clean for best and safest performance. Follow instructions for lubricating and changing accessories.

16.MAKE SURE GUARDS ARE IN PLACE AND WORK CORRECTLY BEFORE USING MACHINERY.

17.REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS AND WRENCHES. Make a habit of checking for keys and adjusting wrenches before turn- ing machinery ON.

18.CHECK FOR DAMAGED PARTS BEFORE USING MACHINERY. Check for binding or misaligned parts, broken parts, loose bolts, and any other conditions that may impair machine operation. Repair or replace damaged parts before operation.

19.USE RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES. Refer to the instruction manual for recom- mended accessories. Improper accesso- ries increase risk of injury.

20.DO NOT FORCE MACHINERY. Work at the speed for which the machine or acces- sory was designed.

21.SECURE WORKPIECE. Use clamps or a vise to hold the workpiece when practi- cal. A secured workpiece protects your hands and frees both hands to operate the machine.

22.DO NOT OVERREACH. Maintain stability and balance at all times.

23.MANY MACHINES CAN EJECT WORKPIECES TOWARD OPERATOR. Know and avoid conditions that cause the workpiece to "kickback."

24.ALWAYS LOCK MOBILE BASES (IF USED) BEFORE OPERATING MACHINERY.

25.CERTAIN DUST MAY BE HAZARDOUS to the respiratory systems of people and animals, especially fine dust. Be aware of the type of dust you are exposed to and always wear a respirator designed to filter that type of dust.
