WORK AREA SAFETY • Keep the work area clean and well lit. Cluttered invite accidents. benches and dark areas Don't use in a dangerous environment. Don't use power tools in damp or wet locations or expose them to rain. Don't operate power tools in potentially explosive environments, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases, or dust. Power tools create sparks, which may ignite the dust or fumes. Operate the tool in well-ventilated areas, and provide proper dust removal Dust generated from some materials can be hazardous to your health. Use dust-collection systems whenever possible. Keep children and bystanders away. All visitors should be kept a safe distance away from the work area. Use the right tool. Don't force a tool or attachment was not designed.

The plug must be plugged into a matching outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances° Do not modify the plug provided. If it will not fit into the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician. Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. The conductor with a green-colored outer insulation cover, with or without yellow stripes, is the equipment-grounding conductor, If repair or replacement is necessary, do not connect the equipment-grounding conductor to a live terminal, = Check with a qualified electrician or service personnel if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if in doubt as to whether the tool is properly grounded. 28180 ManuaLRevised_07©228 Page 5 o Use only 3-wire extension cords that have 3-prong pole receptacles that accept the tool's plug. o Repair or replace a damaged Repair or replace damaged grounding plugs and 3- or worn cord immediately. or worn cord immediately. This tool is intended for use on a circuit that has an outlet that looks like the one illustrated in Sketch A in the figure below. The tool has a grounding plug that looks like the plug illustrated in sketch A in the figure below. A temporary adapter, which looks like the adapter illustrated in Sketches B and C, may be used to connect this plug to a 2-pole receptacle as shown in Sketch B if a properly grounded outlet is not available.

Polarized plugs: To reduce the risk of electric shock, this equipment has 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, contact a qualified electrician to install the proper outlet, Do not change the plug in any way, Use the proper extension cord, • Make sure that your extension • When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw, An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. 28180 Manual Revised_0743228 cord is in good condition Page 6 Table A shows the correct size to use, depending on cord length and ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge: the smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord. When operating a power tool outdoors, ALWAYS use an outdoor extension cord marked "W-A" or "W." These cords are rated for outdoor use and reduce the risk of electric shock. Minumum Gauge for Extension Cords Volts Total Length of Cord in Feet 0-25ft. 25-50_. 51-100ff. 101-150_.

Your risk from these exposures varies, depending upon how often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: • Work in a well-ventilated area. • Work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles_ Avoid prolonged contact with dust from power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling and other construction activities, Wear protective clothing and wash exposed areas with soap and water. Allowing dust to get into your mouth, eyes or lay on the skin may promote absorption of harmful chemicals, 28180 ManuaLRevlsed_07-0228 Page7 ,_ WARNING: The operation of any power tool can result in foreign objects be- ing thrown into your eyes, which can result in severe eye damage. Before beginning power-tool operation, always wear safety goggles or safety glasses with side shields, and a full-face shield when needed. We recommend Wide Vision Safety Mask for use over eyeglasses or standard safety glasses with shields.

SPECIFIC Instructions may SAFETY FOR THE ROUTER TABLE = Read and understand the router table and the instructions and warnings in the product manuals for the router table and the router. Failure to follow all instructions and warnings may result in serious personal injury_ @ Fully assemble and tighten all fasteners required for this table and for mounting the router to the table. Do not use the router table until all assembly and installation steps have been completed. Before each use, check the stand and the router to make sure that all fasteners are still tight. A loose stand is unstable and may shift in use. • Unplug the router before installing it into the table, "['urn off the router-table safety switch controlling power to the the router, or unplug the router before making adjustments or changing accessories, such as bits or cutters. 28180 ManuaLRev_sed_07-0228 Page 9 Do not plug the router power cord into a wall outlet. It must be plugged into the router table switch. Power tool switches and controls need to be within your reach in emergency situations° Before operating, make sure that the entire unit (table with router installed) is placed on and secured to a solid, flat, level surface and that it will not tip. Use of auxiliary infeed and ouffeed supports is necessary for long or wide work pieces. Long work pieces without adequate support can flip off the table or cause the table to tip over. Do not use the router table without the bit guard. Remove all dust, chips, and any other foreign particles that can affect its function. Adjust the guard height so that it clears the router bit and work piece. The guard will aid in keeping hands from unintended contact with the rotating bit. Never place your fingers router is plugged in. near a spinning bit or under the guard when the Never hold the work piece on the ouffeed side of the bit. Pressing the work piece against the out-feed side of the fence may cause the material to bind, which may cause kickback and pull your hand back into the bit. Guide the work piece against the fence to maintain control of the work piece. Do not place material between the router bit and the fence while routing the edge. This placement will cause the material to become wedged, possibly causing kickback. Reuters are intended for working with wood, wood-like plastic or laminates, not for cutting or shaping metals. products, and Be sure the work piece does not contain nails, etc. Cutting nails may cause loss of control. Do not use bits with cutting diameters that exceed the clearance hole in the tabletop insert. The bit could contact the inset ring, throwing fragments. o Install the bit in accordance with the instructions in the router manual and securely clamp the router bit in the collet chuck before making any cuts. o 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 work piece, possibly causing the bit to break or the material to kickback. The router table is designed to cut flat, straight, and squared material. Do not cut material that is warped, wobbly, or otherwise unstable. If the material is slightly curved, but otherwise stable, cut the material with the concave side against the table or fence. Cutting the material with the concave side up or away from the fence may cause the warped or wobbly material to roll and kick back, causing the user to lose control. Never start the tool when the bit is engaged in the material. The cutting edge may grab the material, causing loss of control of the work piece. 28180 Manual_Revlsed_07-022S Page10 Your router table has a precision-built electric switch box and it should be connected to only a 120-volt, 60-HZ AC power supply (normal household current), DO NOT operate on direct current (DC). The large voltage drop would cause a loss of power and the motor would overheat. If the router table does not operate when plugged into correct 120-volt, 60-HZ AC ONLY outlet, check the power supply° The router table comes with an 8-ft. power cord (no adapter needed).
