General Safety Rules
Warning!
Read and understand all instructions. Failure to follow all
instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or
serious personal injury. Save these instructions.
Work area
Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered benches and dark
areas invite accidents.
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.
Keep bystanders, children and visitors away while operating a power
tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.
Electrical Safety
Double insulated tools are equipped with a polarized plug (one blade
is wider than the other.) This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only
one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If
it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install a polarized
outlet. Do not change the plug in any way. Double insulation
eliminates the need for the a wire grounded power cord and grounded
power supply system.
Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators,
ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if
your body is grounded.
Don't expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a
power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
When operating a power tool outside, use an outdoor extension cord
marked “W-A” or “W.” These cords are rated for outdoor use and
reduce the risk of electric shock.
