Power Tool Safety Rules
WARNING
Read and understand all instructions. Failure to follow all instructions listed below, may result in
electric shock, re and/or serious personal injury.
SAVE THESE 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 ammable
liquids, gases, or dust+. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
Keep by-standers, children, and visitors away while operating a power tool. Distractions can
cause you to lose control.
Electrical Safety
Before plugging in the tool, be certain the outlet voltage supplied is within the voltage marked
on the nameplate. Do not use "AC only" rated tools with a DC power supply.
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. If operating the power tool
in damp locations is unavoidable, a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter must be used to supply the
power to your tool. Electrician's rubber gloves and footwear will further enhance your personal
safety.
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. Refer to "Recommended
sizes of Extension Cords" in the Accessory section of this manual.
Personal Safety
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 in uence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment of
inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
