Chicago Electric 97588 Work Piece and Work Area Set Up, General Operating Instructions

Work Piece and Work Area Set Up

1.Designate a work area that is clean and well-lit. The work area must not allow access by children or pets to prevent injury and distraction.

2.Route the power cord along a safe route to reach the work area without creating a tripping hazard or exposing the power cord to possible damage. The power cord must reach the work area with enough extra length to al- low free movement while working.

3.Secure loose work pieces using a vise or clamps (not included) to pre- vent movement while working.

4.There must not be hazardous ob- jects, such as utility lines or foreign objects, nearby that will present a hazard while working.

5.You must use personal safety equip- ment including, but not limited to, ANSI-approved eye and hearing pro- tection, as well as heavy work gloves.

6.Before beginning work, provide for sparks and debris that will fly off the work surface.
