Read and understand
all instructions.
Failure to follow all instructions
listed
below, may result in electric shock, fire 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
flammable
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.
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.
Electrical Safety
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 adaptor
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.
Improper
grounding
can shock,
burn or electrocute.
Grounded
tools
are
equipped
with
three
conductor
cord and three
prong type plugs.
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 DO 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.
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 influence
of drugs,
alcohol,
or
medication.
A moment
of inattention
while
operating
power tools
may result
in serious
personal
injury.
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.
Keep
handles
dry, clean
and free from
oil
and grease.
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.
Remove
adjusting
keys
or wrenches
before turning the tool "ON".
A wrench or
a key that is left attached to a rotating part of
the tool may result in personal injury.
Do not overreach.
Keep
proper
footing
and balance
at all times.
Proper
footing
and balance
enables
better control of the tool
in unexpected
situations.
Use safety
equipment.
Always
wear eye
protection.
Dust
mask,
non-skid
safety
shoes,
hard hat, or hearing
protection
must
be used for appropriate
conditions.
