ENCE OF DRUGS OR ALCOHOL,
24, SECURE ALL WORK, When it is possible, use
clamps or jigs to secure thework-piece, This is
safer than attempting to hold the work-piece with
your hands,
25, STAY ALERT, WATCH WHAT YOU ARE DOING,
AND USE COMMON SENSE WHEN OPERATING
A POWER TOOL. DO NOT USE A TOOL WHILE

26, ALWAYS WEAR A DUST MASK TO PREVENT
INHALING DANGEROUS DUST OR AIRBORNE
PARTICLES, including wood dust, crystalline silica
dust and asbestos dust. Direct particles away from
face and body. Always operate tool inwell ventilat-
ed area and provide for proper dust removal. Use
dust collection system wherever possible. Exposure
to the dust may cause serious and permanent
respiratory or other injury, including silicosis (a
serious lung disease), cancer, and death. Avoid
breathing the dust, and avoid prolonged contact
with dust. Allowing dust to get into your mouth or
eyes, or lay on your skin may promote absorption
of harmful material. Always use properly fitting
NIOSH/OSHA approved respiratory protection
appropriate for the dust exposure, and wash
exposed areas with soap and water.
27, USE A PROPER EXTENSION CORD IN GOOD
CONDITION, When using an extension cord, be
sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current
your product will draw, Please see minimum recom-
mended gauge for extension cords (AWG) table for
correct sizing of an extension cord, if in doubt, use
the next heavier gauge,
The smaller the gauge number, the larger diameter of
the extension cord. if in doubt of the proper size of an
extension cord, use a shorter and thicker cord. An
undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage
resulting ina loss of power and overheating. USE
ONLY A 3-WIRE EXTENSION CORD THAT HAS A
3-PRONG GROUNDING PLUG AND A 3-POLE
RECEPTACLE THAT ACCEPTS THE TOOL'S PLUG.
GUJDEUNES FOREXTENSION CORDSIf you are using an extension cord outdoors, be sure
