Safety is a combination of common sense, staying alert, and knowing how your item works.
SAVE THESE SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS.
WORK AREA SAFETY
1. Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
2. Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable
liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
3. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the
risk of electric shock.
4. Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to
lose control.
PERSONAL SAFETY
1. Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do
not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A
moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
2. Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as a
dust mask, non-skid safety shoes and hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce
the risk of personal injury.
3. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Keep your hair and clothing away from
moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
4. Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before connecting to power
source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on
the switch or energizing power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
5. Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left
attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.
6. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the
power tool in unexpected situations.
7. If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these
are connected and properly used. Use of dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.
WARNING:
Read and understand all warnings, cautions and operating instructions before
using this tool. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in personal injury and
tool damage.
