SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
9. The direction of feeding the bit into
the material is very important and it
relates to the direction of bit rotation.
When viewing the tool from the top, the
bit rotates clockwise. Feed direction of
cutting must be counter-clockwise. NOTE:
inside and outside cuts will require different
feed direction, refer to section on feeding
the router. Feeding the tool in the wrong
direction, causes the cutting edge of the bit
to climb out of the work and pull the tool in
the direction of this feed.
10. Never use dull or damaged bits. Sharp
bits must be handled with care. Damaged
bits can snap during use. Dull bits require
more force to push the tool, possibly
causing the bit to break.
11. Never touch the bit during or
immediately after the use. After use the bit
is too hot to be touched by bare hands.
12. Never lay the tool down until the motor
has come to a complete standstill. The
spinning bit can grab the surface and pull
the tool out of your control.
13. Never use bits that have a cutting
diameter greater than the opening in the
base.
WARNING:
Some dust created by
power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling
and other construction activities contains
chemicals known to the state of California
to cause cancer, birth defects or other
reproductive harm. Some examples of
these chemicals are:
• Lead from lead-based paints
• Crystalline silica from bricks and
cement and other masonry products,
and
• Arsenic and chromium from chemically-
treated lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies,
depending on how often you do this type
of work. To reduce your exposure to these
chemical: work in a well ventilated area,
and work with approved safety equipment,
such as those dust masks that are specially
designed to filter out microscopic particles.
