WORK AREA SAFETY
1.
Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered benches and dark areas increase the
chance of accidents;
2.
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.
3.
Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away while operating a power tool. Distractions
can cause you to lose control.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
DANGER
1.
Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use
any adapter plugs. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric
shock.
2.
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 earthed or
grounded.
3.
Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will
increase the risk of electric shock.
4.
Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord to carry the power tool or pull the plug from
an outlet. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Replace
damaged cords immediately. Damaged cords increase the risk of electric shock.
5.
When operating a power tool outdoors, use a
– GROUNDED –
extension cord suitable
for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric
shock.
6.
If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual current
device (RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.
