ELECTRICAL SAFETY
WARNING! Do not touch or handle a live tool with any part of your body
that is wet or damp. Wet skin reduces resistance to electrical current,
increasing the danger of a serious or fatal shock.
WARNING! To reduce risk of electric shock, be certain that the plug is
connected to a properly grounded receptacle.
1. Shut the power off and disconnect the retractable extension cord reel
from the power supply (if possible) before making any adjustments,
changing accessories, cleaning, servicing or when storing. Such preventive
safety measures reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally.
2. Do not alter any parts of the tool or accessories. All parts and accessories
are designed with built-in safety features that may be compromised if
altered.
3. Protect yourself against electric shocks when working on electrical
equipment. Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces. There is an
increased chance of electrical shock if your body is grounded.
4. Do not expose the retractable extension cord reel to rain, snow, frost or
any other damp or wet conditions. Water entering a tool will increase the
risk of electric shock.
5. Do not disconnect the power cord in place of using the power switch. This
will prevent an accidental start-up when the power cord is plugged into
the power supply.
6. In the event of a power failure, turn off or unplug the machine as soon as
the power is interrupted. The possibility of accidental injury could occur if
the power returns and the unit is not switched off.
7. Make certain the power source conforms to requirements of your
equipment (see Specifications).
8. This tool is only for use on 120 V (single phase) and is equipped with a
three-prong grounded power supply cord and plug. Check with a qualified
