Work area safety
• Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered benches and dark areas invite accidents.
• Do not operate power tools in explosive environments, such as in the presence of flammable
liquids, gases, or dust. Power tools create sparks, which may ignite the dust or fumes.
• Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to
lose control.
electrical safety
• Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adaptor
plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce the
risk of electric shock.
• Avoid body contact with earthed (grounded) surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges, and
refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed (grounded).
• Do not 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 for carrying, pulling, or unplugging the power tool. Keep
the cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges, or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase
the risk of electric shock.
• When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a
cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
• If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a ground-fault circuit interrupter
(GFCI) protected supply. Use of a GFCI reduces the risk of electric shock.
