3.Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control. Protect others in the work area from debris such as chips and sparks. Provide barriers or shields as needed.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
4.Grounded tools must be plugged into an outlet properly installed and grounded in accordance with all codes and ordinances. Never remove the grounding prong or modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs. Check with a qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded. If the tools should electrically malfunction or break down, grounding provides a low resistance path to carry electricity away from the user.
5.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 three wire grounded power cord and grounded power supply system.
6.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.
7.Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
8.Do not abuse the Power Cord. Never use the Power Cord to carry the tools or pull the Plug from an outlet. Keep the Power Cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges, or moving parts. Replace damaged Power Cords immedi- ately. Damaged Power Cords increase the risk of electric shock.
9.When operating a power tool outside, use an outdoor extension cord marked
PERSONAL SAFETY
10.Stay alert. Watch what you are doing, and use common sense when oper- ating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while tired or under the influ- ence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment of inattention while operat- ing power tools may result in serious personal injury.
