Warning!
Read all instructions. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may
result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury. The term “power tool” in
all of the warnings listed below refers to your mains operated (corded)
power tool or battery operated (cordless) power tool. Save these instructi-
ons.
1) Work area
a. Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered and dark areas invite acci-
dents.
b. Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the pre-
sence of flammable liquids, gasses or dust. Power tools create sparks
which may ignite the dust of 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 which earthed (grounded) power
tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric
shock.
b. Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes,
radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of elec-
tric shock if your body is earthed or 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
