Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
5. When operating a 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 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
tool. Do not use a tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol
or medication. A moment of inattention while operating tools may result in serious
personal injury.
2. Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Safety
equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing
protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
3. Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before
connecting to power source, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying tools with
your finger on the switch or energizing tools that have the switch on invites
accidents.
4. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing
and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be
caught in moving parts.
5. Only use safety equipment that has been approved by an appropriate
standards agency. Unapproved safety equipment may not provide adequate
protection. Eye protection must be ANSI-approved and breathing protection must
be NIOSH-approved for the specific hazards in the work area.
Tool use and care
1. Use the correct tool for your application. The correct tool will do the job better
and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
2. Do not use the tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any tool that cannot
be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
3. Disconnect the plug from the power source before making any adjustments, or
storing tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the tool
accidentally.
