12.Avoid accidental starting. Be sure the Trigger is released before plugging in. Carrying power tools with your finger on the Trigger, or plugging in power tools with the Trigger on, invites accidents.
13.Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before plugging the tool in. A wrench or a key that is left attached to a moving part of the power tool may result in personal injury.
14.Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Proper footing and balance enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
15.Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Dust mask, non- skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection must be used for appro- priate conditions. Always wear work gloves and the included ANSI ap- proved safety goggles.
TOOL USE AND CARE
16.Use clamps (not included) or other practical ways to secure and support the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the work by hand or against your body is unstable and may lead to loss of control.
17.Do not force the tool. Use the correct tool for your application. The correct tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it is designed.
18.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. Any tool that can- not be controlled with the Trigger is dangerous and must be repaired or replaced.
19.Disconnect the Power Cord Plug from the power source before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing the tool. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally.
20.Store idle tools out of reach of children and other untrained persons. Tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
21.Maintain tools with care. Keep tools clean. Properly maintained tools are less likely to bind and are easier to control. Do not use a damaged tool. Tag damaged tools “Do not use” until repaired.
22.Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, and any other condition that may affect the tool’s operation. If damaged, have the tool serviced before using. Many accidents are caused by poorly main- tained tools.
