I /_ WARNING:
BE SURE to read and understand
all instructions.
Failure
I
to follow all instructions
listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or
I
serious personal
injury.
WORK
AREA SAFETY
1. ALWAYS keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered
and dark areas
invite accidents.
2. 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.
3. ALWAYS
keep bystanders,
children
and visitors
away while operating
a
power
tool.
Distractions
can cause
you to lose control.
ELECTRICAL
SAFETY
1. Double insulated tools are equipped with a polarized plug (one blade is
wider than the other).This
plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way.
If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet reverse the plug. If it still
does not fit, contact a qualif ed electrician to install a polarized outlet.
DO NOT change or alter the plug in any way.
2. Double insulation []
eliminates the need for the three wire
grounded power cord and grounded power supply
system. Applicable only to Class II (double insulated) tools.
3. ALWAYS 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.
4. DO NOT expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a
power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
5. DO NOT abuse the cord. NEVER use the cord to carry the tools or pu
the plug from the outlet. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or
moving parts. Replace damaged cords immediately. Damaged cords
increase the risk of electric shock.
6. When operating a power tool outside, ALWAYS use an outdoor
extension cord marked "W-A" or "W".
These cords are rated for outdoor
use and reduce the risk of electric shock.
7. ALWAYS make sure that your extension cord is in good condition.When
using an exmnsion cord be sure to use one that is heavy enough to
carry the current that your tool will draw. A wire gauge (AWG) of at least
14 is recommended for an extension cord 25 feet or less in length. When
working outdoors ALWAYS use an extension cord that is suitable for outdoor
use.The cord's jacket will be marked WA, Smaller gauge wires have
greater capacity (16 gauge wlre has more capamty than 18 gauge wire).
An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage, resulting in loss of
power and overheating.
