5 GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS
Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow all 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.
5.1 Work area
 Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered 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 children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can
cause you to lose control.
5.2 Electrical safety
Always check that the power supply corresponds to the voltage on the
rating plate.
 Power tool plugs must match the outlet. 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 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 conditions. Water entering a power tool will
increase the risk of electric shock.
