damp or wet locations. Keep work area well lit.

Do not use power tools where there is risk to

cause fire or explosion.

radiators, ranges, refrigerators).

4. Keep children away. Do not let visitors touch the

tool or extension cord. All visitors should be kept

away from work area.

5. Store idle tools. When not in use, tools should

be stored in a dry, high or locked up place, out

6. Do not force the tool. It will do the job better and

safer at the rate for which it was intended.

attachments to do the job of a heavy duty tool.

Do not use tools for purposes not intended; for

example, do not use circular saw to cut tree

limbs or logs.

jewellery, they can be caught in moving parts.

Rubber gloves and non-skid footwear are

recommended when working outdoors. Wear

protecting hair covering to contain long hair.

if the cutting operation is dusty.

extraction and collection facilities ensure these are

connected and properly used.

11. Do not abuse the cord. Never carry the tool by

the cord or yank it to disconnect it from the

receptacle. Keep the cord away from heat, oil and

sharp edges.

12. Secure work. Use clamps or a vise to hold the

work. It is safer than using your hand and it frees

both hands to operate tool.

13. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance

and when changing accessories such as blades,

bits and cutters.

habit of checking to see that keys and adjusting

wrenches are removed from the tool before turning

it on.

sense. Do not operate tool when you are tired.

any other conditions that may affect its operation.

A guard or other part that is damaged should be

properly repaired or replaced by an authorized

service center unless otherwise indicated in this
