Electrical safety
4a Grounded tools must be plugged into an outlet
socket that is properly installed and grounded in
accordance with all codes and ordinances. Never
remove the ground prong or modify the plug in any
way. Do not use any adapter plugs. Check with a
qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether
the outlet socket 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.
4b Double-insulated tools are equipped with a
polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other.)
This plug will fit in a polarized socket only one way. If the plug
does not fit fully in the socket, reverse the plug. If it still does
not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install a polarized
socket. Do not change or modify the plug in any way. Double
insulation eliminates the need for the three-wire grounded
power cord and grounded power supply system.
5 Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces such
as pipes, radiators, ranges (stoves) and refrigerators.
There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is
grounded.
6 Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions.
Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric
shock.
7 Do not abuse the power cord. Never use the cord
to carry the tool or to pull the plug from a socket.
Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving
parts. Replace damaged cords immediately. Damaged
cords increase the risk of electric shock.
8 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.
GENERAL SAFETY RULES
WARNING! 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
1 Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered
benches 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 Keep bystanders, children, animals, and visitors
away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause
you to lose control.
Personal safety
9 Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use
common sense when operating a power tool. Do not
use 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.
10 Dress appropriately. 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 get caught in moving parts.
11 Avoid accidental tool starts. Be sure the switch is
off before plugging the tool in. Carrying tools with your
finger on the switch or plugging in tools that have the switch
on invites accidents.
