listed below, may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious personal injury.

Work Area
Keep your work area clean and well lit.
C l u t t e red benches and dark areas invite
a c c i d e n t s .
Do not operate power tools in ex p l o s i v e
atmospheres, such as in the presence of
f l a m m a ble liquids, gases, or dust. P o w e r
tools create sparks which may ignite the dust
or fumes.
Keep by - s t a n d e rs, children, and visitors

Distractions can cause you to lose contro l .
Electrical Safe t y
Double Insulated tools are equipped with
a polarized plug (one blade is wider than
the other.) This plug will fit in a polarized
outlet only one way. If the plug does not
fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it
still does not fit, co ntact a qualified
electrician to install a polarized outlet. Do
not ch a n ge the plug in any way. D o u b l e
Insulation
eliminates the need for the
t h ree wi re grounded po wer cord and
g rounded power supply system. B e fo r e
plugging in the tool, be certain the outlet
voltage supplied is within the voltage marked
on the nameplate. Do not use "AC only" rated
tools with a DC power supply.
Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces
s u ch as pipes, radiators, ranges and
r e f r i ge r a t o rs . T h e re is an increased risk of
electric shock if your body is grounded. If
operating the power tool in damp locations is
unavoidable, a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter
must be used to supply the power to your
tool. Electrician's rubber gloves and footwear
will further enhance your personal safety.
Don't expose power tools to rain or wet
c o n d i t i o n s . Water entering a power tool will
i n c rease the risk of electric shock.
Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord
to carry the tools or pull the plug from an
outlet. Keep cord aw ay from heat, oil, sharp
e d ges or moving parts. Replace damage d
c o rds immediately. Damaged cords incre a s e
the risk of electric shock.
When operating a power tool outside, use
an outdoor extension cord marked "W- A "
or "W." These cords are rated for outdoor use
and reduce the risk of electric shock. Refer to
"Recommended sizes of Extension Cords" in
the Accessory section of this manual.
Pe rsonal Safe t y
S t ay alert, watch what you are doing and
use common sense when opera ting a
p ower tool. Do not use tool while tired or
under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or
m e d i c a t i o n . A moment of inattention while
operating power tools may result in serious
personal injury.
Dress pro p e r ly. Do not wear loose cl o t h i n g
or jew e l ry. Contain long hair. Keep yo u r
h a i r, clothing, and gloves aw ay fro m
m oving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long
hair can be caught in moving parts. Keep
handles dry, clean and free from oil and
g re a s e .
Avoid accidental starting. Be sure sw i t ch is
"OFF" before plugging in. Carrying tools
with your finger on the switch or plugging in
tools that have the switch "ON" invites
a c c i d e n t s .
R e m ove adjusting keys or wrenches befo r e
turning the tool "ON". A wrench or a key that
is left attached to a rotating part of the tool
may result in personal injury.
Do not ov e r r e a ch. Keep proper footing and
balance at all times. P roper footing and
balance enables better control of the tool in
unexpected situations.
Use safety equipment. Alw ays wear eye
p ro t e c t i o n . Dust mask, non-skid safety shoes,
h a rd hat, or hearing protection must be used
for appropriate conditions.
Tool Use and Care
Use clamps or other practical way to
secure and support the workpiece to a
s t a ble platfo r m . Holding the work by hand or
against your body is unstable and may lead to
loss of contro l .
Do not fo rce tool. Use the correct tool fo r
your application. The correct tool will do the
job better and safer at the rate for which it is
d e s i g n e d .

Do not use tool if sw i t ch does not turn it
"ON" or "OFF". Any tool that cannot be
c o n t rolled with the switch is dangerous and
must be re p a i re d .
Disconnect the plug from the power sourc e
b e fore making any adjustments, ch a n g i n g
accessories, or storing the tool. S u c h
p reventive safety measures reduce the risk of
starting the tool accidentally.
Store idle tools out of reach of children and
other untrained pers o n s . Tools are
d a n g e rous in the hands of untrained users.
Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting tools
sharp and cl e a n . P roperly maintained tools,
with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind
and are easier to control. Any alteration or
modification is a misuse and may result in a
d a n g e rous condition.
C h e ck for misalignment or binding of
m oving parts, breakage of parts, and any
other condition that may affect the tools
operation. If damaged, have the tool
s e rviced before using. Many accidents are
Rotary Saw Safety Rules
Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces
when performing an operation where the
cutting tool may contact hidden wiring or
its own cord. Contact with a "live" wire will
make exposed metal parts of the tool "live"
and shock th e oper ator. If cutt ing in to
existing walls or other blind areas where
e l e c t rical wiring may exist is unavo i d a bl e,
disconnect all fuses or circuit breake r s
feeding this worksite.
A lw ays make sure the work surface is
free from nails and other foreign objects.
Cutting into a nail can cause the bit and the
tool to jump and damage the bit.
Never hold the workpiece in one hand and
the tool in the other hand when in use.
N ever place hands near or below cutting
surface. Clamping the material and guiding
the tool with both hands is safer.
N ever lay workpiece on t op of hard
surfa ces, like concrete, stone, etc...
P rotruding cutting bit may cause tool to
jump.
caused by poorly maintained tools. Develop a
periodic maintenance schedule for your tool.
Use only accessories that are recom-
mended by the manufacturer for yo u r
model. Accessories that may be suitable for
one tool, may become hazardous when used
on another tool.
S e rv i c e
Tool service must be performed only by
qu alified repair pers o n n e l . Service or
maintenance performed by unqualified
personnel could result in a risk of injury. For
example: internal wires may be misplaced or
pinched, safety guard re t u rn springs may be
i m p roperly mounted.
When servicing a tool, use only identical
replacement parts. Follow instructions in
the Maintenance section of this manu a l .
Use of unauthorized parts or failure to follow
Maintenance Instructions may create a risk of
electric shock or injury. Certain cleaning
agents such as gasoline, carbon tetrachloride,
ammonia, etc. may damage plastic parts.
A lw ays wear safety goggles and dust
mask. Use only in well ventilated area.
Using personal safety devices and working
in safe environment reduces risk of injury.
After changing the bits or making any
adjustments, make sure the collet nut and
a ny oth er adj ustment devices are
s e c u r e ly tightened. Loose adjustment
device can unexpectedly shift, causing loss
of control, loose rotating components will be
violently thrown.
N ever star t th e tool when the bit is
e n g aged in the material. The bit cutting
edge may grab the material causing loss of
control of the cutter.
A lw ays hold the tool with two hands
during start-up. The reaction torque of the
motor can cause the tool to twist.
The direction of feeding the bit into the
material is very important and it relates to
the direction of bit rotation. Most materials
should be cut in a clockwise direction. An
exception is when cutting around an outlet
