Work Area

• Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered
benches and dark areas invite accidents.
• Do not operate power tools in explosive atmo-
spheres, such as in the presence of flammable
li quids, gases, or dust. Power tools create sparks
which may ignite the dust or fumes.

properly installed and grounded in accordance

grounding prong or modify the plug in any way.
Do not use any adapter plugs. Check with a qual-
ified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether
the outlet is properly grounded. If the tool should
electrically malfunction or break down, grounding
provides a low resistance path to carry electricity
away from the user.
• 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 grounded.
• Do not expose power tools to rain or wet condi-
tions. Water entering a power tool will increase the
risk of electric shock.
• Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord to car-
ry the tool or pull the plug from an outlet. Keep
cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or mov-
ing parts. Replace damaged cords immediately.
Damaged cords increase the risk of electric shock.
• When operating a power tool outside, use an out-
door extension cord marked "W-A" or "W" . These
cords are rated for outdoor use and reduce the risk
of electric shock.
