AGED PARTS PRmOR TO USmNGTHE TOOL, Carefully check all guards to see that they operate properly, are not damaged, and perform their intended functions, Check for alignment, binding or breaMng of moving parts, A guard or other part that is damaged should be immediately repaired or replaced,

22, CHILDPROOF THE WORKSHOP AREA by remov- ing switch keys, unplugging tools from the electrical receptacles, and using padlocks,

23, DO NOT OPERATE TOOL IF UNDER THE INFLU- ENCE OF DRUGS OR ALCOHOL,

24, SECURE ALL WORK, When it is possible, use clamps or jigs to secure the work-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 TIRED OR UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF DRUGS, ALCOHOL, OR MEDICATION, A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.

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 in well 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 in a 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.
