Electrical Safety

1.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.

2.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.

3.Do not expose Lamp to rain or wet conditions. Water contacting with Lamp will increase the risk of electric shock.

4.Do not abuse the Power Cord. Never use the Power Cord to carry or pull the Lamp or pull the Plug from an outlet. Keep the Power Cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges, or moving parts. Replace damaged Power Cords immediately. Damaged Power Cords increase the risk of electric shock.

Personal Safety

1.Stay alert. Watch what you are doing, and use common sense when operating Lamp. Do not use a power tool while tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.

2.Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Contain long hair. Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be caught in moving parts.

3.Avoid accidental starting. Be sure the Power Switch is off before plugging in. Plugging in Lamp with the Power Switch on invites accidents.

4.Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Wear ANSI-approved safety goggles, NIOSH-apprved respirator, and heavy-duty work gloves during setup and use.

Tool Use And Care

1.Use the correct tool for your application. The correct tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it is designed. Do not force the tool and do not use the tool for a purpose for which it is not intended.

2.Do not use Lamp if the Power Switch does not turn it on or off. Any tool that cannot be controlled with the Power Switch is dangerous and must be replaced.
