GENERAL SAFETY RULES
WARNING: Read and understand all instructions.
Failure to follow all instructions listed below, may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious personal injury.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
1. Work Area |
| |
(1) | Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered benches and dark areas invite | |
| accidents. |
|
(2) | Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of | |
| flammable liquids, gases, or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the | |
| dust of fumes. | |
(3) | Keep bystanders children, and visitors away while operating a power tool. | |
| Distractions can cause you to lose control. | |
2. Electrical Safety |
| |
(1) | 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. | |
(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 power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool | |
| will increase the risk of electric shock. | |
(4) | Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord to carry the tools or pull the plug from | |
| a receptacle. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Replace | |
| damaged cords immediately. Damaged cords increase the risk of electric shock. | |
(5) | 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. |
|
3. Personal Safety |
| |
(1) | Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a | |
| power tool. Do not use tool while tires 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 switch is off before plugging in. Carrying tools | |
| with your finger on the switch or plugging in tools that have the switch on invites |
4 | accidents. |
