General Power Tool Safety Warnings

WARNING Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.

MULTI-TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS

1. This power tool is intended to function for sawing, cutting, grinding, and sanding. Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations, and specifications provided with this power tool. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire, and/or serious injury.
2. Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when performing an operation where the cutting accessory may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Cutting accessory contacting a “live” wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool “live” and could give the operator an electric shock.
3. Use clamps or another practical way to secure and support the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the work by hand or against your body leaves it unstable and may lead to loss of control.
4. Position the cord clear of the spinning accessory. If you lose control, the cord may be cut or snagged and your hand or arm may be pulled into the spinning accessory.
5. Always use safety glasses or goggles.
   Ordinary eyes or sunglasses are NOT safety glasses.
6. Avoid cutting nails. Inspect the workpiece for any nails and remove them before operation.
7. Hold the tool firmly.
8. Make sure the application tool is not contacting the workpiece before the switch is turned on.
9. Keep hands away from moving parts.
10. Do not leave the tool running. Operate the tool only when hand-held.
11. Always switch off and wait for the blade to come to a complete stop before removing the blade from the workpiece.
12. Do not touch the application tool or the workpiece immediately after operation; they may be extremely hot and could burn your skin.
13. Do not operate the tool at no-load unnecessarily.
14. Always use the correct dust mask/respirator for the material and application you are working with.
15. Some material contains chemicals that may be toxic. Take caution to prevent dust inhalation and skin contact. Follow material supplier safety data.
16. This tool has not been waterproofed, so do not use water on the workpiece surface.
17. Ventilate your work area adequately when you perform sanding operations.
18. Use of this tool to sand some products, e.g. leaded paint surfaces, wood, and metals could expose users and bystanders to dust containing hazardous substances. Use appropriate respiratory protection.
19. Be sure that there are no cracks or breakage on the pad before use. Cracks or breakage may cause a personal injury.
20. Do not use accessories that are not specifically designed and recommended by the tool manufacturer. Just because the the accessory can be attached to your power tool, it does not assure safe operation.
21. Wear personal protective equipment.
    Depending on the application, use a face shield, safety goggles, or safety glasses. As appropriate, wear hearing protectors, gloves and a workshop apron capable of stopping small abrasive or workpiece fragments. The eye protection must be capable of stopping flying debris generated by various operations. The dust mask or respirator must be capable of filtrating particles generated by your operation. Prolonged exposure to high intensity noise may cause hearing loss.
22. Keep bystanders a safe distance away from the work area. Anyone entering the work area must wear personal protective equipment.
    Fragments of a workpiece or of a broken accessory may fly away and cause injury beyond the immediate area of operation.
23. Never lay the power tool down until the accessory has come to a complete stop. The spinning accessory may grab the surface and pull the power tool out of your control.
24. Do not run the power tool while carrying it at your side. Accidental contact with the accessory could snag your clothing, pulling the accessory into your body.
25. Do not operate the power tool near flammable materials. Sparks could ignite these materials.
26. Do not use accessories that require liquid coolants. Using water or other liquid coolants may result in electrocution or shock.
