GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS*
*The text used in the general power tool safety warnings section of
this manual is as required from the applicable UL/CSA standard. This
section contains general safety practices for many different types of
power tools. Not every precaution applies to every tool. And some do
not apply to this tool.
Work Area Safety
1.
Keep work area clean and well lit.
Cluttered or dark areas invite
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.
Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power
tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose control.
Electrical Safety
1.
Power tool plugs must match the outlet.
Never modify the plug
in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded)
power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce
risk of electric shock.
2.
Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces, such
as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators.
There is an in-
creased 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 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.
5.
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.
6.
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.
Personal Safety
1.
Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense
when operating a power tool.
Do not use a power tool while you
are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A
moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in
serious personal injury.
2.
Use personal protective equipment.
Always wear eye protec-
tion.
Protective equipment such as a dust mask, non-skid safety
shoes, hard hat or hearing protection used for appropriate condi-
tions will reduce personal injuries.
3.
Prevent unintentional starting.
Ensure the switch is in the off-
position before connecting to power source and/or BATTERY
pack, picking up or carrying the tool.
Carrying power tools with
your finger on the switch or energizing power tools that have the
switch on invites accidents.
4.
Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the pow-
er tool ON.
A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the
power tool may result in personal injury.
5.
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all
times.
This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected
situations.
6.
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Keep
your hair and clothing away from moving parts.
Loose clothes,
jewelry or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
7.
If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction
and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and
properly used.
Use of dust collection can reduce dust-related
hazards.
8.
Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use of tools allow
you to become complacent and ignore tool safety principles.
A careless action can cause severe injury within a fraction of a
second.
Power Tool Use and Care
1.
Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for
your application.
The correct power tool will do the job better and
safer at the rate for which it was designed.
2.
Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it ON
and OFF.
Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch
is dangerous and must be repaired.
3.
Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or remove
the BATTERY pack, if detachable, from the power tool before
making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing
power tools.
Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of
starting the power tool accidentally.
4.
Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not
allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instruc-
tions to operate the power tool.
Power tools are dangerous in
the hands of untrained users.
5.
Maintain power tools and accessories. Check for misalign-
ment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any
other condition that may affect the power tool's operation. If
damaged, have the power tool repaired before use.
Many acci-
dents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
6.
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly maintained cutting
tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier
to control.
7.
Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in accord-
ance with these instructions, taking into account the working
conditions and the work to be performed.
Use of the power tool
for operations different from those intended could result in a haz-
ardous situation.
8.
Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean and free from
oil and grease.
Slippery handles and grasping surfaces do not
allow for safe handling and control of the tool in unexpected situa-
tions.
WARNING
Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations and specifica-
tions provided with this power tool.
Failure to follow all instructions
listed below may result in electric shock, fire, and/or serious injury.
SAVE ALL WARNINGS AND INSTRUCTIONS
FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.
