Guidelines for Using Extension Cords
1. If you are using an extension cord outdoors, be sure it is marked with the suffix “W-A”
(“W” in Canada) to indicate that it is acceptable for outdoor use.
2. Be sure your extension cord is properly wired and in good electrical condition. Always
replace a damaged extension cord or have it repaired by a qualified person before
using it.
3. Protect your extension cords from sharp objects, excessive heat, and damp or wet
areas.

SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES FOR RANDOM ORBITAL
SANDERS
WARNING: DO NOT LET COMFORT OR FAMILIARITY WITH PRODUCT (GAINED FROM
REPEATED USE) REPLACE STRICT ADHERENCE TO PRODUCT SAFETY RULES. If you use this
tool unsafely or incorrectly, you can suffer serious personal injury!
1. Always hold the tool firmly in your hands before switching the tool “On”. The reaction
to the torque of the motor as it accelerates to full speed may cause the tool to twist.
2. Do not leave the tool running. Operate the tool only when hand-held.
3. This tool has not been waterproofed, so do not use water on the workpiece surfaces.
4. Ventilate your work area adequately when you perform sanding operations.
5. Wear eye and hearing protection. Always use safety glasses with side shields. Unless
otherwise specified, everyday glasses provide only limited impact resistance, they
are not safety glasses. Use only certified safety equipment; eye protection equipment
should comply with ANSI z87.1 standards. Protective hearing equipment should
comply with ANSI s3.19 standards.
6. Protect your lungs. Wear a face or dust mask if the operation is dusty. Following this
rule will reduce the risk of personal injury.
