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 DRILLS
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. Hold the tool by insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation where the
cutting tool may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Contact with a “live” wire will
make exposed metal parts of the tool “live” and shock the operator. Do not drill, fasten
or break into existing walls or other blind areas where electrical wiring may exist. If
this situation is unavoidable, disconnect all fuses or circuit breakers feeding this work
site.
2. Always use safety glasses or goggles. Ordinary eye or sun glasses are NOT safety
glasses. USE CERTIFIED SAFETY EQUIPMENT. Protective eyewear should comply with
ANSI Z87.1 standards. Use a dust mask or respirator for operations which generate
dust.
3. Wear ear/hearing protectors when using this tool for extended periods. Prolonged
exposure to high intensity noise can cause hearing loss.
4. Hold the tool firmly to prevent injury that may result from loss of control because of
high rotational force.
5. Always be sure you have firm footing and check to see no one is below when using
the tool in high locations.
6. Do not hold the tool or place your hands near the rotating chuck or drill bit. Contact
with any moving parts may result in personal injury.
