Work Area
• Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered benches and dark areas invite accidents. The
floor must not be slippery from wax or dust.
• 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 tools. Distractions can cause you
to lose control.
• Operate the air compressor in an open area at least 18 in. away from any wall or object that
could restrict the flow of fresh air to ventilation openings.
Electrical Safety
• 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 tool or pull the plug from an outlet.
Keep the 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.
