3.Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away while operating a powered ma- chine. Distractions can cause you to lose control. Protect others in the work area from debris fumes and oil. Provide barriers or shields as needed.

Electrical Safety

1.Grounded machines 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 machines should electrically malfunction or break down, grounding provides a low resistance path to carry electricity away from the user.

2.Double insulated machines 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.

3.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.

4.Do not expose powered machines to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a powered machine will increase the risk of electric shock.

5.Do not abuse the Power Cord. Never use the Power Cord to carry the machines 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.

6.When operating a powered machine outside, use an outdoor extension cord marked “W-A” or “W”. These extension cords are rated for outdoor use, and reduce the risk of electric shock.

Personal Safety

1.Stay alert. Watch what you are doing, and use common sense when operat- ing a powered machine. Do not use a powered machine while tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment of inattention while operating powered machines 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 in engine compartment. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be caught in moving parts in the machine.
