DISCONNECTING POWER SUPPLY.­Always­dis- connect­ machine­ from­ power­ supply­ before­ ser- vicing,­ adjusting,­ or­ changing­ cutting­ tools­ (bits,­ blades,­ cutters,­ etc.).­ Make­ sure­ switch­ is­ in­ OFF­ position­before­reconnecting­to­avoid­an­unexpect- ed­or­unintentional­start.

APPROVED OPERATION.­ Untrained­ operators­ can­ be­ seriously­ hurt­ by­ machinery.­ Only­ allow­ trained­ or­ properly­ supervised­ people­ to­ use­ machine.­ When­ machine­ is­ not­ being­ used,­ dis- connect­ power,­ remove­ switch­ keys,­ or­ lock-out­ machine­to­prevent­unauthorized­use—especially­ around­children.­Make­workshop­kid­proof!

DANGEROUS ENVIRONMENTS. Do­ not­ use­ machinery­ in­ wet­ or­ rainy­ locations,­ cluttered­ areas,­around­flammables,­or­in­dark­areas.­Keep­ work­area­clean,­dry,­and­well-lighted.

ONLY USE AS INTENDED.­ Only­ use­ machine­ for­ its­ intended­ purpose.­ Never­ modify­ machine­ for­a­purpose­not­intended­by­the­manufacturer!

USE RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES.­Consult­ this­owner’s­manual­or­the­manufacturer­for­rec- ommended­ accessories.­ Using­ improper­ acces- sories­will­increase­the­risk­of­serious­injury.

CHILDREN & BYSTANDERS. Keep­ children­ and­bystanders­a­safe­distance­away­from­work­ area.­Stop­using­machine­if­children­or­bystand- ers­become­a­distraction.

REMOVE ADJUSTING TOOLS.­ Never­ leave­ adjustment­tools,­chuck­keys,­wrenches,­etc.­in­or­ on­machine—especially­near­moving­parts.­Verify­ removal­before­starting!

SECURING WORKPIECE.­ When­ required,­ use­ clamps­ or­ vises­ to­ secure­ workpiece.­ A­ secured­ workpiece­protects­hands­and­frees­both­of­them­ to­operate­the­machine.

FEED DIRECTION.­Unless­otherwise­noted,­feed­ work­ against­ the­ rotation­ of­ blades­ or­ cutters.­ Feeding­in­the­same­direction­of­rotation­may­pull­ your­hand­into­the­cut.

FORCING MACHINERY.­Do­not­force­machine.­ It­ will­ do­ the­ job­ safer­ and­ better­ at­ the­ rate­ for­ which­it­was­designed.

GUARDS & COVERS.­ Guards­ and­ covers­ can­ protect­ you­ from­ accidental­ contact­ with­ moving­ parts­ or­ flying­ debris.­ Make­ sure­ they­ are­ prop- erly­ installed,­ undamaged,­and­ working­correctly­ before­using­machine.

NEVER STAND ON MACHINE.­Serious­injury­or­ accidental­ contact­ with­ cutting­ tool­ may­ occur­ if­ machine­is­tipped.­Machine­may­be­damaged.

STABLE MACHINE. Unexpected­movement­dur- ing­ operations­ greatly­ increases­ risk­ of­ injury­ or­ loss­ of­ control.­ Before­ starting,­ verify­ machines­ are­stable­and­mobile­base­(if­used)­is­locked.

AWKWARD POSITIONS.­ Keep­ proper­ footing­ and­balance­at­all­times­when­operating­machine.­ Do­not­overreach!­Avoid­awkward­hand­positions­ that­ make­ workpiece­ control­ difficult­ or­ increase­ the­risk­of­accidental­injury.

UNATTENDED OPERATION. Never­ leave­ machine­running­while­unattended.­Turn­machine­ off­and­ensure­all­moving­parts­completely­stop­ before­walking­away.

MAINTAIN WITH CARE.­Follow­all­maintenance­ instructions­ and­ lubrication­ schedules­ to­ keep­ machine­in­good­working­condition.­An­improperly­ maintained­machine­increases­risk­of­injury.­

CHECK DAMAGED PARTS.­ Regularly­ inspect­ machine­ for­ damaged­ parts,­ loose­ bolts,­ mis- adjusted­ or­ mis-aligned­ parts,­ binding,­ or­ any­ other­ conditions­ that­ may­ affect­ safe­ operation.­ Always­repair­or­replace­damaged­or­mis-adjust- ed­parts­before­operating­machine.

MAINTAIN POWER CORDS. When­ disconnect- ing­ cord-connected­ machines­ from­ power,­ grab­ and­pull­the­plug—NOT­the­cord.­Pulling­the­cord­ may­ damage­ the­ wires­ inside.­ Do­ not­ handle­ cord/plug­with­wet­hands.­Avoid­cord­damage­by­ keeping­it­away­from­heated­surfaces,­high­traffic­ areas,­harsh­chemicals,­and­wet/damp­locations.

EXPERIENCING DIFFICULTIES. If­ at­ any­ time­ you­ are­ experiencing­ difficulties­ performing­ the­ intended­ operation,­ stop­ using­ the­ machine!­ Contact­ our­ Technical­ Support­ Department­ at­ (570)­546-9663.
