For your own safety, read the owner’s manual before operating the hand notcher.
This hand notcher is designed and intended for use by properly trained and experienced
personnel only. If you are not familiar with the proper and safe operation of a hand notcher, do
not use until proper training and knowledge have been obtained.
1. KEEP GUARDS IN PLACE and in working order.
2. KEEP ALL BODY PARTS AWAY FROM MOVING PARTS. Avoid placing any part of your body
near belts, cutters, gears, etc.
3. DO NOT EXCEED RATED GAUGE CAPACITY on this hand notcher.
4. KEEP THE WORK AREA CLEAN. Cluttered areas and work benches invite accidents.
5. KEEP CHILDREN AWAY. All visitors should be kept a safe distance from the work area.
6. MAKE THE WORKSHOP KID PROOF with padlocks, master switches, or by removing starter keys.
7. DON’T FORCE THE MACHINE. It will do the job better and more safely at the rate for which it was
designed.
8. USE THE RIGHT MACHINE. Do not force a machine or attachment to do a job for which it was not
designed.
9. WEAR PROPER APPAREL. Do not wear loose clothing, gloves, neckties, rings, bracelets, or other
jewelry which may get caught in moving parts. Non-slip footwear is recommended. Wear protective
hair covering to contain long hair.
10. ALWAYS USE SAFETY GLASSES. Also use face or dust masks if the cutting operation is dusty.
Everyday eyeglasses only have impact resistant lenses; they are not safety glasses.
11. DON’T OVERREACH. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
12. MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE. Keep tools sharp and clean for the best and safest performance.
Follow instructions for lubricating and changing accessories.
13. NEVER STAND ON A MACHINE. Serious injury could occur if the machine tipped.
14. CHECK DAMAGED PARTS. Before further use of the machine, a guard or other part that is
damaged should be carefully checked to determine that it will operate properly and perform its
intended function - check for alignment of moving parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of parts,
mounting, and any other conditions that may affect its operation. A guard or other part that is
damaged should be properly repaired or replaced.
15. SHEET METAL STOCK HAS SHARP EDGES. To prevent cuts, use caution when handling.
16. KEEP HANDS AND FINGERS clear of the area in front and rear of the hand notcher.
17. DO NOT USE THE MACHINE for any purpose other than for which it was designed.
18. FAILURE TO COMPLY with all of these warnings may cause serious injury.
19. SOME DUST CREATED BY power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling and other construction
activities contains chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some
examples of these chemicals are:
• Lead from lead based paint
• 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 chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work with approved
safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specifically designed to filter out microscopic
particles
20. DO NOT OPERATE TOOL while under the influence of drugs, alcohol or any medication.
