General Safety Information

WARNING! Read and understand all Instructions.
Failure to follow all instructions listed below
may result in electric shock, fire, and/or seri-
ous personal injury.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS!

Work Area Safety

1. Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered
benches and dark areas invite accidents.
2. Do not operate power tools in explosive atmo-
spheres, such as in the presence of flammable
liquids, gases, or dust. Power tools create sparks
which may ignite the dust or fumes.
3. Keep by-standers, children, and visitors away
while operating a power tool. Distractions can
cause you to lose control.
4. Do not let visitors contact the tool or extension
cord. Such preventative measures reduce the risk
of injury.

Electrical Safety

1. Grounded tools must be plugged into an outlet,
properly installed and grounded in accordance
with all codes and ordinances. Never remove
the grounding prong or modify the plug in any
way. Do not use any adapter plugs. Check with
a qualified 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.

2. Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces
such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigera-
tors. There is an increased risk of electrical shock
if your body is grounded.
3. Don't expose power tools to rain or wet condi-
tions. Water entering a power tool will increase the
risk of electrical shock.
4. Do not abuse 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 mov-
ing parts. Replace damaged cords immediately.
Damaged cords increase the risk of electrical shock.
5. 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 electrical shock.
6. Connect the tool to an AC power supply that
matches the name plate specification. Incorrect
voltage supply can cause electrical shock or burns.
7. Use only three-wire extension cords which
have three-prong grounding plugs, and three-
pole receptacles which accept the tools plug.
Use of other extension cords will not ground the
tool and increase the risk of electrical shock.
8. Use proper extension cords. (See chart.) Insuf-
ficient conductor size will cause excessive voltage
drop and loss of power.

Personal Safety

1. Stay alert, watch what you are doing, and use
common sense when operating a power tool.
Do not use tool while tired or under the influ-
ence of drugs, alcohol, or medications. A
moment of inattention while operating power tools
may result in serious personal injury.
2. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or
jewelry. Contain long hair. Keep your hair,
clothing, and gloves away from moving parts.
Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be caught
in moving parts.
3. 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.
4. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and bal-
ance at all times. Proper footing and balance
