⚠WARNING
WORK AREA SAFETY
•Inspect the work area before each use. Keep work area clean, dry, free of clutter, and well-lit.
Cluttered, wet, or dark work areas can result in injury. Using the product in confined work areas
may put you dangerously close to cutting tools and rotating parts.
•Do not use the product where there is a risk of causing a fire or an explosion; e.g., in the
presence of flammable liquids, gases, or dust. The product can create sparks, which may ignite
the flammable liquids, gases, or dust.
•Do not allow the product to come into contact with an electrical source. The tool is not insulated
and contact will cause electrical shock.
•Keep children and bystanders away from the work area while operating the tool. Do not allow
children to handle the product.
⚠WARNING
PERSONAL SAFETY
•Stay alert, watch what you are doing, and use common sense when operating the tool. Do not

moment of inattention while operating the tool may result in serious personal injury.
•Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing, dangling objects, or jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing
and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be caught in
moving parts. Air vents on the tool often cover moving parts and should be avoided.
•Wear the proper personal protective equipment when necessary. Use ANSI Z87.1 compliant
safety goggles (not safety glasses) with side shields, or when needed, a face shield. Use a dust
mask in dusty work conditions. Also use non-skid safety shoes, hardhat, gloves, dust collection
systems, and hearing protection when appropriate. This applies to all persons in the work area.
•Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
•Remove keys or wrenches before connecting the tool to an air supply, power supply, or turning
on the tool. A wrench or key that is left attached to a rotating part of the tool may cause personal
injury.

•Secure the work with clamps or a vise instead of your hand when practical. This safety
precaution allows for proper tool operation using both hands.

children. Inspect the tool for good working condition prior to storage and before re-use.
•Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for use with your product.

place.
•Do not leave the tool running unattended.
