General Power Tool 

Safety Warnings

WARNING Read all safety warnings and 

instructions. Failure to follow the 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.

1. 

Work area safety

a. 

Keep work area clean and well lit.  

Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.

b. 

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.

c. 

Keep children and bystanders away 

while operating a power tool.

  

Distractions 

can cause you to lose control.

2. 

Electrical safety

a. 

Power tool plugs must match the outlet.  

Never modify the plug in any way.  Do 

not use any adapter plugs with grounded 

power tools.  Unmodified plugs and matching 

outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.

b. 

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.

c. 

Do not expose power tools to rain or wet 

conditions.  Water entering a power tool 

will increase the risk of electric shock.

d. 

Do not abuse the cord.  Never use the cord 

for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power 

tool.  Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp 

edges or moving parts.  Damaged or entangled 

cords increase the risk of electric shock.

e. 

When operating a power tool outdoors, 

use an extension cord suitable for outdoor 

use.  Use of a cord suitable for outdoor 

use reduces the risk of electric shock.

f. 

If operating a power tool in a damp location 

is unavoidable, use a Ground Fault Circuit 

Interrupter (GFCI) protected supply. Use of 

a GFCI reduces the risk of electric shock.

3. 

Personal safety

a. 

Stay alert, watch what you are doing and 

use common sense when operating a 

power tool.  Do not use a power tool while
