SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING! Read and understand all instructions including
that provided with attachment and accessories. Failure to
follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire
and/or serious personal injury.
General Safety Instructions
WORK AREA
• Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered benches
and dark 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 operat-
ing a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
• Grounded tools must be plugged into an outlet properly
installed and grounded in accordance with all codes and ordi-
nances. Never remove the grounding prong or modify the plug
in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs. Check with a quali-
fied electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is
properly grounded. If the tools should electrically malfunction or
break down, grounding provides a low resistance path to carry
electricity away from the user. Applicable only to Class I
(grounded) tools.
• 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 elec-
trician to install a polarized outlet. Do not change the plug in any
way. Double insulation
grounded power cord and grounded power supply system.
Applicable only to Class II (double insulated) tools.
• 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.

sense when operating a power tool. Do not use tool while
tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication.
A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result
in serious personal injury.
