The purpose of safety symbols is to attract your attention to possible hazardous conditions.
This manual uses a series of symbols and signal words intended to convey the level of impor-
tance of the safety messages. The progression of symbols is described below. Remember that
safety messages by themselves do not eliminate danger and are not a substitute for proper
accident prevention measures.
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided,
MAY result in minor or moderate injury. It may also be used to alert
against unsafe practices.
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided,
COULD result in death or serious injury.
Indicates an imminently hazardous situation which, if not avoided,
WILL result in death or serious injury.
This symbol is used to alert the user to useful information about
proper operation of the machine.
NOTICE
Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activi-
ties contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other
reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work.
To reduces your exposure to these chemicals: Work in well ventilated area, and work with
approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specifically designed to filter
out microscopic particles.
Lead from lead-based paints.
Crystalline silica from bricks, cement, and other masonry products.

There is potential danger when operating
woodworking machinery. Accidents are fre-
quently caused by lack of familiarity or fail-
ure to pay attention. Use any machines with
respect and caution to decrease the risk of
operator injury. If normal safety precautions
are overlooked or ignored, serious personal
injury may occur.
No list of safety guidelines can be com-
plete. Every shop environment is different.
Always consider safety first, as it applies
to your individual working conditions. Use
tools and any machinery with caution and
respect. Failure to do so could result in seri-
ous personal injury, damage to equipment,
or poor work results.
