Important Safety Instructions
General Power Tool Safety Warnings
Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to
follow the warnings and instructions may result in electric
shock, fire and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
The term "power tool" in the warnings refers to your mains-
operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless)
power tool.
1. Work Area Safety
Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or
a.
dark areas invite accidents.
SAFE OPERATION PRACTICES
DANGER
WARNING
CAUTION
WARNING
WARNING
DO NOT operate power tools in explosive
b.
atmospheres, 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
c.
operating a power tool. Distractions can cause
you to lose control.
2. Electrical Safety
Power tool plugs must match the outlet.
a.
Never modify the plug in any way. DO NOT use
any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded)
power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching
outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded
b.
surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and
refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric
shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
DO NOT expose power tools to rain or wet
c.
conditions. Water entering a power tool will
increase the risk of electric shock.
DO NOT abuse the cord. Never use the cord for
d.
carrying, pulling or unplugging the power
tool. Keep 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
e.
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
f.
is unavoidable, use a ground fault circuit
interrupter (GFCI) protected supply. Use of a
GFCI reduces the risk of electric shock.
3. Personal Safety
Stay alert, watch what you are doing and
a.
use common sense when operating a power
tool. DO NOT use a power tool while you
are tired or under the influence of drugs,
alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention
while operating power tools may result in serious
personal injury.
Use personal protective equipment. Always
b.
wear eye protection. Protective equipment such
as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or
hearing protection used for appropriate conditions
will reduce personal injuries.
Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the
c.
switch is in the off-position before connecting
to power source and/or battery pack, picking
up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools
with your finger on the switch or energizing power
tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
Remove any adjusting key or wrench before
d.
turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left
attached to a rotating part of the power tool may
result in personal injury.
