WARNING:
Dust that is created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and
other construction activities may contain chemicals that are known to cause cancer, birth
defects, or other genetic abnormalities. These chemicals include:
• Lead from lead-based paints
• Crystalline silica from bricks, cement, and other masonry products
• Arsenic and chromium from chemically treated lumber
The level of risk from exposure to these chemicals varies, according to how often this type of
work is performed. In order to reduce exposure to these chemicals, work in a well-ventilated
area, and use approved safety equipment, such as a dust mask that is specifically designed to
filter out microscopic particles.
ELECTRICAL SAFETy
WARNING:
To avoid electrical hazards, fire hazards or damage to the tool, use
proper circuit protection.
This tool is wired at the factory for 120V AC operation. It must be connected to a 120V AC,
15 A circuit that is protected by a time-delayed fuse or circuit breaker. To avoid shock or fire,
replace power cord immediately if it is worn, cut or damaged in any way.
POWER TOOL SAFETy
WARNING:
Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow the
warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury
.
WORk AREA SAFETy
keep work area clean and well lit.
Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flam
-
mable liquids, gases or dust.
Power tools create sparks, that may ignite the dust or fumes.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS FOR REFERENCE
!
!
keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool.
Distractions can cause
you to lose control.
ELECTRICAL SAFETy
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.
Avoid bodily contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators,
ranges and refrigerators.
There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed
or grounded.
Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions.
Water entering a power tool will
increase the risk of electric shock.
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.
When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use.
Using a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a supply protected by
ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI).
Use of a GFCI reduces the risk of electric shock.
PERSONAL SAFETy
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.
Use personal protective equipment.
Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment such
as a dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat or hearing protection used for appropriate
conditions will reduce personal injuries.
