atmospheres, such as in the presence of
flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power
tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or
fumes.
c) keep children and bystanders away while
operating a power tool. Distractions can
cause you to lose control.
2) ElECtriCal SaFEty
a) Power tool plugs must match the outlet.
Never modify the plug in any way. do
not use any adapter plugs with grounded
power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching
outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
b) avoid body contact with grounded
surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges
and refrigerators. There is an increased risk
of electric shock if your body is earthed or
grounded.
c) do not expose power tools to rain or wet
conditions. Water entering a power tool will
increase the risk of electric shock.
d) do not abuse the cord. Never use the
cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging
the power tool. keep cord away from
heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts.
Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk
of electric shock.
e) when operating a power tool outdoors,
use an extension cord suitable for outdoor
use marked "w-a" or "w". Use of a cord
suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of
electric shock.

location is unavoidable, use a Ground
Fault Circuit interupter (GFCi) protected
supply. Use of a GFCI reduces the risk of
electric shock.
