Work Area

Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered benches and dark areas invite accidents.

DOnot operate power tools in explosive atmo- spheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases, or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.

Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.

Electrical Safety

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.

Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges, and refrigera- tors. There is an increased risk of electric shock if

your body is grounded.

Don'texpose power tools to rain or wet condi-

tions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.

DO not abuse the cord. Never use the cord to carry the tools or pug the plug from an outlet.

Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges, or moving parts. Replace damaged cords immedi-

ately. Damaged cords increase the risk of electric shock.

When operating a power tool outside, use an outdoor extension cord marked "W-A"or "W." These cords are rated for outdoor use and reduce the risk of electric shock.

Personal Safety

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

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

Avoid accidental starting. Be sure switch is off before plugging in. Carrying tools with your finger

on the switch or plugging in tools that have the switch on invites accidents.

Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before turning the tool on. A wrench or a key that is left attached to a rotatingpart of the tool may resultin personal injury.

Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Proper footing and balance

enables better controlof the tool in unexpected situations.

Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protec- tion. Dust mask, nonskidsafety shoes, hard hat, or

hearing protection must be used for appropriate conditions.
