General Safety Instructions
WARNING! Read and understand all instructions. Failure to follow all instruc- tions listed below, may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious personal injury.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Safety Instructions For All Tools
WORK AREA
Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered benches and dark areas invite acci- dents.
Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases, or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
Grounded tools must be plugged into an outlet properly installed and grounded in accordance with all codes and ordinances. Never remove the grounding prong or modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs. Check with a qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded. If the tool should electrically malfunction or break down, grounding provides a low resistance path to carry electricity away from the user. This tool uses grounded construction (3 prong plug) to provide a means to transfer electrical energy safely away from the user in the event the tool electrically malfunctions, breaks down, or the tool case becomes live. Damage to, or loss of, one of the 3 plug blades; damage to the plug or cord, or failure to have the tool plugged into a verified and continuously grounded electrical system, may result in electric shock, serious injury, or death. To avoid these risks of injury, the tool must, at all times, be maintained and in proper working order (cord, plug blades) and plugged into a continuously grounded electrical system. (See also “Cleaning” in the Maintenance section.)
Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is grounded.
Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord to carry tools or pull the plug from an outlet. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Replace dam- aged cords immediately. Damaged cords increase the risk of electric shock.
When operating a power tool outside, use an outdoor extension cord marked
EXTENSION CORDS
Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. A volt- age decrease of more than 10% will cause a loss of power and overheating. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. The fol- lowing table shows the correct size to use depending on cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gage. The smaller the gage number, the heavier the cord.

PERSONAL SAFETY
Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use 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.
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Contain long hair. Keep your hair, clothing , and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be caught in moving parts. Air vents often cover moving parts and should also be avoided.
Avoid accidental starting. Be sure switch is off before plugging in. Carrying tools with your finger on the switch or plugging in tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before turning the tool on. A wrench or key that is left attached to a rotating part of the tool may result in personal injury.
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Proper footing and balance enables better control of the tool in unexpected situations.
Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Dust mask,
TOOL USE AND CARE
Use clamps or other practical ways to secure and support the workpiece to a sta- ble platform. Holding the work by hand or against your body is unstable and may lead to loss of control.
Do not force tool. Use the correct tool for your application. The correct tool will do the job better and safer and the rate for which it is designed.
Do not use tool if switch does not turn it on or off. Any tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
Disconnect the plug from the power source before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing the tool. Such preventative safety measures reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally.
Store idle tools out of reach of children and other untrained persons. Tools are dan- gerous in the hands of untrained users.
Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained tools, with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, and any other condition that may affect the tools operation. If damaged, have the tool serv- iced before using. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained tools.
Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for your model. Accessories that may be suitable for one tool may become hazardous when used on another tool.
SERVICE
Tool service must be performed only by qualified repair personnel. Service or main- tenance performed by unqualified personnel could result in a risk of injury.
When servicing a tool, use only identical replacement parts. Follow instructions in the Maintenance section of this manual. Use of unauthorized parts or failure to follow main- tenance instructions may create a risk of electric shock or injury.
Specific Safety Rules for Routers
Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation where the cutting tool may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Contact with a “live” wire will make exposed metal parts of the tool “live” and shock the operator.
Metal cutting with router: If using router for metal cutting, clean out tool often. Metal dust and chips often accumulate on interior surfaces and could create a risk of serious injury, electrical shock or death.
Never run the motor unit when it is not inserted in one of the router bases. The motor is not designed to be handheld.
Keep handles dry, clean, and free from oil and grease. This will enable better control of the tool.
Keep hands away from cutting area. Never reach under the workpiece for any reason. Keep the router base firmly in contact with the workpiece when cutting. Hold the router only by the handles. These precautions will reduce the risk of personal injury.
Use sharp cutters. Dull cutters may cause the router to swerve or stall under pressure.
Never touch the bit immediately after use. It may be extremely hot.
Be sure that the motor has stopped completely before you lay the router down. If the cutter head is still spinning when the tool is laid down, it could cause injury or damage.
Be sure that the router bit is clear of the workpiece before starting the motor. If the bit is in contact with the workpiece when the motor starts it could make the router jump, caus- ing damage or injury.
CAUTION: Wear appropriate hearing protection during use. Under some conditions and duration of use, noise from this product may contribute to hearing loss.
WARNING: Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other con- struction activities contains chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproduc- tive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:
•lead from
•crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products.
•arsenic and chromium from
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.
•Avoid prolonged contact with dust from power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities. Wear protective clothing and wash exposed areas with soap and water. Allowing dust to get into your mouth, eyes, or lay on the skin may promote absorption of harmful chemicals.
WARNING: Use of this tool can generate and/or disburse dust, which may cause serious and permanent respiratory or other injury. Always use NIOSH/OSHA approved respiratory pro- tection appropriate for the dust exposure. Direct particles away from face and body.
