GENERAL SAFETY RULES

WORK AREA:

Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered and dark work areas invite
accidents. Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of
flammable liquids, gases, or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or
fumes. Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away while operating a power tool. Distractions
can cause you to lose control.

ELECTRICAL SAFETY:

Double insulated tools are equipped with 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 a polarized outlet. Do not change the plug in any way. Double insulation eliminates the
need for the three wire grounded power cord and grounded power supply system.
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.
Don't expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase
the risk of electric shock.
Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord to carry the tools or pull the plug from an outlet.
Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Replace damaged cords
immediately. Damaged cords increase the risk of electric shock.
When operating a power tool outside, use an outdoor extension cord marked "W-A" or "W".
These cords are rated for outdoor use and reduce the risk of electric shock.

PERSONAL SAFETY:

Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when
operating a power tool. Do not use tools while tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol,
or medication.
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Contain long hair. Keep your hair,
clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Avoid accidental starting. Be sure switch is off
before plugging in. Carrying tools with your finger on the switch or plugging in tools that have
the switch on invites accidents.
Remove adjusting keys or switches before turning the tool on. A wrench or key that is left
attached to a rotating part of the tool may result in personal injury.
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Proper footing and balance
enables better control of the tool in unexpected conditions.
TOOL USE AND CARE:
Do not use tool if switch does not turn it on or off. Any tool that
cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
Disconnect the plug from the power source before making any adjustment, changing
accessories, or storing the tool. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the
tool accidentally.
Store idle tools out of reach of children and other untrained persons. Tools are dangerous in
the hands of untrained users.
Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained tools with
sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition
that may affect the tools operation. If damaged, have the tool serviced before using. Many
accidents are caused by poorly maintained tools.
Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for your model. Accessories
that may be suitable for one tool may become hazardous when used on another tool.
SERVICE:
Tool service must be performed only by qualified repair personnel. Service or
maintenance performed by unqualified personnel could result in a risk of injury.
When servicing a tool, use only identical replacement parts. Follow instructions in the
maintenance section of this manual. Use of unauthorized parts or failure to follow maintenance
instructions may create a risk of electric shock or injury.
Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation where the cutting tools
may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Contact with a "live wire" will make exposed metal
parts of the tool "live" and shock the operator.
SWITCH: This tool starts by pushing the switch button forward with your thumb and stops when
the switch button is released. For convenience of continuous operation, press & push the front
of the switch button until it locks into the "on" position. To release the locking position push the
rear of the switch button.
