SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES
Know your worklight. Read operator’s manual carefully.
Learn its applications and limitations, as well as the
specific potential hazards related to this worklight.
Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock, fire,
or serious injury.
Lens and housing become hot during use:
During or immediately after use, don’t lay worklight flat
on lens surface or place lens area in contact with a plastic
or fabric covered surface.
Handle worklight with care around any flammable surface.
Do not use or permit use of worklight in bed or sleeping
bags. This worklight lens can melt fabric and could result
in burn injury.
Do not disassemble your worklight.
Do not permit children to use worklight unsupervised.
It
is not a toy. The temperature of the light head will become
hot after being on for only a short period of time. This hot
temperature can cause burn injury if touched and can create
sufficient heat to melt some fabrics.
Stay alert.
Watch what you are doing and use common
sense. Do not rush.
If wrapped or in contact with fabrics, the worklight lens
can produce sufficient heat to melt some fabrics.
To avoid
serious personal injury, never allow the worklight lens to
come in contact with anything.
Check damaged parts.
Before further use of this worklight,
a part that is damaged should be carefully checked to
determine that it will operate properly and perform its
intended function. Do not use worklight if it does not
function properly.
Do not abuse cord.
Never use the cord to carry the
FLEXLITE. Do not pull cord rather than the plug when
disconnecting from receptacle. Damage to the cord could
occur and create an electric shock hazard. Replace damaged
cord immediately.
Make sure cord is located so that it will not be stepped on,
tripped over, come in contact with sharp edges or moving
parts or otherwise subjected to damage or stress.
This will
reduce the risk of accidental falls, which could cause injury,
and damage to the cord, which could result in electric shock.
Keep cord from heat to prevent damage to housing or
internal parts.
