1) WORK AREA SAFETY
• Keep work area clean and well
lit.
Cluttered or dark areas invite acci-
dents.
• Do not operate power tools in
explosive atmospheres, such as
in the presence of fl ammable
Iiquids, 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.
2) ELECTRICAL SAFETY
• Power tool plugs must match the
outlet. Never modify the plug in
any way. Do not use any adapt-
er plugs with earthed (grounded)
power tools.
Unmodifi ed plugs and
matching outlets will reduce risk of elec-
tric shock.
