WORK AREA SAFETY
PERSONAL SAFETY
1. Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite acci- dents.
2. Do not operate power tools in ex- plosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases, or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
3. Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distrac- tions can cause you to lose control.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
4. Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
5. 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.
6. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
7. Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling, or unplug- ging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges, or mov- ing parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
8. When operating a power tool out- doors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of elec- tric shock.
