do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was
designed.
Do not use the power tool if the switch does not

making any adjustments, changing accessories,
or storing the power tools.
Such preventive safety
measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool
accidentally.

and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power
tool or these instructions to operate the power
tool.
Power tools are dangerous in the hands of
untrained users.

Distractions can cause you to lose control.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify
the plug in any way. Do not use any adaptor plugs
with earthed (grounded) power tools.
Unmodified
plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric
shock.
Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces
such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators.
There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body
is earthed or grounded.
Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions.
Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of
electric shock.
Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying,
pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away
from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts.
Damaged or
entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension
cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of cord suitable of
outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.

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.
Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection.
Safety equipment such as dusk mask, non-skid safety
shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate
conditions will reduce personal injuries.
Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the switch is in
