from work area. Anyone entering the
work area must wear personal protective
equipment.
Fragments of workpiece or of a
broken accessory may fly away and cause
injury beyond immediate area of operation.
10.
Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces
only, when performing an operation where
the accessory may contact hidden wiring
or its own cord.
An accessory contacting a
