IMPORTANT SAFETY RULES
COMMON SENSE AND CAUTION ARE FACTORS WHICH CANNOT BE BUILT INTO ANY PRODUCT.
THESE FACTORS MUST BE SUPPLIED BY THE OPERATOR.
Keep your work area clean and well lit.
Cluttered work benches and dark work areas may cause
accidents or injury.
Do not operate the
parts washer
in explosive areas, such as in the presence of flammable liquids,
gases or dust.
Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
Keep bystanders, children and visitors away while operating the
parts washer
.
Distractions can
cause you to lose control.
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 in the outlet, reverse the
plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install a polarized outlet. Do not change
the plug in any way.
Double insulation eliminates the need for the three wire grounded power cord and
grounded power supply system.
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.
Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord to carry the tool or pull the plug from an outlet. Keep
the cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges, or moving parts. Replace damaged cords immediately
.
Damaged cords increase the risk of electric shock.
When operating the tool outside, use an outdoor extension cord marked “WA” or “W.”
These cords
are rated for outdoor use and reduce the risk of electric shock. Make sure the extension cord being used
is in good condition. If there are any cuts or nicks (no matter how deep) in the insulation, DO NOT use
that cord. Also, make sure the extension cord is heavy enough to carry the current needed. DO NOT use
small "around-the-house” lamp extension cords. These cords can easily overheat and/or catch fire when
used with power tools.
Do not force tool. Use the correct tool for your application.
The correct tool will do the job better and
safer at the rate for which it is designed.
Do not use the
parts washer
if the power switch does not turn it “ON” or “OFF”.
Any tool that
cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
Disconnect the power cord plug from the power source before making any adjustments, changing
accessories or storing the tool.
Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the tool
accidentally.
Store idle tools out of reach of children and other untrained persons.
Tools are dangerous in the
hands of untrained users.
Clean off any accidental splashes of degreaser on skin immediately, following the degreaser
manufacturer’s instructions carefully. Seek medical attention if necessary.
