1. KEEP WORK AREA CLEAN. Cluttered areas invite injuries.
2. CONSIDER WORK AREA ENVIRONMENT. Don’t use power tools in damp, wet or poorly lit
locations. Don’t epose your tool to rain. Keep tthe work area well lit. Don’t use tools in the
presence of flammable gases or liquids.
3. KEEP CHILDREN AND BYSTANDERS AWAY. All children should be kept away from the work
area. Don’t let them handle machines, tools or extension cords. Visitors can be a distraction
and are difficult to protech from injury.
4. GROUNDED TOOLS must be plugged into an outlet that itself is properly installed and
grounded. Grounding provides a low-resistance path to carry electricity to ground away from
the operator, should the tool malfunction electrically. Do not remove the grounding prong from
the plug or alter the plug in any way. If in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded
according to code, check with a qualified electrician.
5. GUARD AGAINST ELECTRIC SHOCK. Prevent body contact with grounded surfaces: pipes,
radiators, ranges and refrigerator enclosures. When your body is grounded the risk of electric
shock increases. When working wherever “live” electrical wires may be encountered, try to
ascertain whether there is a danger of shock. Even so, DO NOT TOUCH ANY METAL PARTS
OF THE TOOL while using it. Hold the tool only by the plastic grip to prevent electric shock if
you contact a live wire.
6. DO NOT ABUSE THE CORD. Never carry power tool by the cord or pull on the cord to unplug
it. Protect the cord from potential sources of damage: heat, oil and solvents, sharp edges or
moving parts. Replace damaged cords immediately.
7. WHEN WORKING OUTDOORS, USE AN OUTDOOR-RATED EXTENSION CORD.
8. DO NOT EXPOSE ELECTRICAL POWER TOOLS TO MOISTURE. Rain or wet conditions can
cause water to enter the tool and lead to electric shock.
9. ENSURE THE EXTENSION CORD YOU USE IS OF SUFFICIENT GAUGE FOR ITS
LENGTH.
10. STORE IDLE EQUIPMENT. Store equipment in a dry area to inhibit rust. Equipment also
should be in a high location or locked up to keep out of reach of children
11. DON’T FORCE THE TOOL. It will do the job better and more safely at the rate for which it was
intended.
12. USE THE RIGHT TOOL. Don’t force a small tool or attachment to do the work of a larger
industrial tool. Don’t use a tool for a purpose for which it was not intended.
13. DRESS PROPERLY. Don’t wear loose clothing or jewellery; they can be caught in moving
parts. Protective, non-electrically conductive gloves and non-skid footwear are recommended
when working. Wear protective hair covering to contain long hair and keep it from harm.
