Always hold the tool by its insulated gripping surfaces when cutting in areas that contain live wiring. If the blade makes contact with a live wire, the metal parts of this tool may conduct enough electricity to seriously shock the user. Contact with a “live” wire will make exposed metal parts of the tool “live” and shock the operator. Do not cut or break into existing walls or other blind areas where electrical wiring may exist. It this situation is unavoidable, disconnect all fuses or circuit breakers feeding this worksite.
Check to see that keys or adjusting wrenches are removed before turning the power tool “ON”. Keys or wrenches can fly away at high velocity striking you or a bystander.
