: Read all safety warnings and instructions.
Failure to follow
the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious

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 residual
current device (RCD) protected supply.
Use of a RCD reduces the risk of
electric shock.
