SECTION 1: HEALTH WARNING AND SAFETY
HEALTH WARNING
Sanding, sawing, routing, drilling, and other activities may create airborne dust particles
containing chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects, and other health
complications. For example: lead from paints, crystalline silica in masonry products like
brick and cement, arsenic and chromium from treated lumber.
Level of risk varies depending on frequency of exposure. To help mitigate detrimental
effects, always work in an area with adequate ventilation using approved safety
equipment, such as dust masks specifically rated to filter out microscopic particles.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS WHEN WORKING WITH
POWER TOOLS
Make sure all guards are properly positioned and working correctly.
Be sure that all adjusting wrenches and keys have been removed prior to turning
on your machine.
Maintain a clean work area. Clutter can lead to unsafe conditions and accidents.
Only use power tools in a safe environment. Never operate in damp conditions or
in unventilated areas where noxious or flammable fumes may collect. Always
work in a well-lighted area.
All visitors and children should be kept away from the work area.
Childproof your work area using locks, master switches, remove starter keys, and
other devices.
Don’t force a tool beyond its capabilities. Use a tool for the job in which it was
designed and do not exceed the proper rate of use.
Wear proper clothing. NEVER wear dangling or loose clothing, necklaces,
bracelets, neckties, or other articles that could be caught in moving parts.
Likewise, cover long hair. Non-slip footwear also increases safety.

WIRE GAUGE
An undersized cord decreases line voltage, causing loss of power and overheating.
All cords should use a ground wire and plug pin. Replace any damaged cords
immediately.
Secure Your Work. When possible, use a clamp or a vise for added safety. This
keeps both hands free to operate your tool more securely.
Never Over-Reach. Proper footing and balance must be kept at all times to avoid
a dangerous fall.
Keep Your Tools Well-Cared For. Tools that are kept sharp and clean work best
and safest. Lubricate tools and change out accessories as instructed by the tool
manual.
Use Approved Accessories Only. Using accessories other than those
recommended in the Owner's Manual can cause damage and injury.
Avoid Unintentional Starts. To reduce the risk of accidental starts, machinery
should ALWAYS be unplugged prior to making adjustments or performing
service. Verify that the switch is in the OFF position before reconnecting the
power.
Inspect Damaged Parts. Any damaged parts must be thoroughly inspected before
continued use to ensure proper functioning. Pay close attention to alignment and
binding of moving parts, breakage, mounting and other potentially problematic
conditions. Promptly repair and replace any damaged parts.

Shut Off Your Tool Before Leaving. A running tool should NEVER be left
unattended. Wait for the machine to come to a COMPLETE stop before leaving.
Stay Alert! Machinery should not be used without full mental alertness. For
example, never use machinery while tired or under the influence of drugs or
alcohol.
If you have a problem, stop using the tool immediately and contact service for
further instructions.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR ROUTER TABLE USE
Keep your hands safe. Do not place hands in front of or over the cutter. As your
hand moves toward the cutter, you should arc it away toward the out feed side and
then place it back behind the cutter.
Use Long Enough Stock to Keep Hands from Blades. Special jigs or fixtures,
such as a Safety Small Parts Holder, should always be used when routing stock
less than 12 inches. If you can, rout stock before cutting and then cut to size.
Keep the cutters below the workpiece whenever practical for added safety.
Check Rotation First. Whenever you adjust your set-up, remove the machine
from the power supply and rotate the collet by hand to ensure that the cutters can
spin freely before starting the machine.
If not using the full depth of the cutter be sure to keep any excess cutting height
below the table surface.
Watch your depth of cut. Removing too much material is dangerous and makes
a rougher cut. Using multiple light passes enhances safety and improves the
quality of the finished cut.
Stop when You Encounter Difficulty. Any time you have a problem; you
should stop work immediately and contact service or check with a qualified expert
for additional instruction.
Choose the Right Safety Tools. Often, push sticks are helpful safety devices.
However, they can also be dangerous. If a push stick touches a cutter on the end
grain, it can be forcefully ejected from your hand, causing possible serious injury.
Fixtures, jigs, and hold-downs are often better options. Always use a guard or
protective device of some sort.

Feed AGAINST the rotation of the cutter at all times.
ALLERGY WARNING: Certain types of wood can cause allergic reactions. Be
aware of possible reactions and use a respirator to minimize exposure to dust
particles.
You MUST read and fully understand the manual and operating guide for the
router to be used prior to working with it.
NEVER reach below the table while the router is running or plugged in.
!!WARNING!!
To avoid serious personal injury, please read this manual thoroughly and become very
familiar with its contents, including all safety precautions.
!!WARNING!!
In addition to these guidelines, additional precautions should be taken specific to your
own shop environment. Always use caution and common sense when operating
machinery to avoid the risk of serious injury.
