GENERAL SAFETY RULES
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
WORK AREA SAFETY
•
Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or 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.
PERSONAL SAFETY
•
Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power
tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol
or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious
personal injury.
•
Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Safety equipment such as dust
mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate
conditions will reduce personal injuries.
•
Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position when the unit is not in
use. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or plugging in power tools that
have the switch on invites accidents.
•
Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a
key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.
•
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better
control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
•
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing and
gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught in
moving parts.
POWER TOOL USE AND CARE
•
Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. The correct
power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
•
Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any power tool that
cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
•
Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar
with the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are
dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
WARNING: Read all instructions. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may
result in serious injury.
