WORK AREA
Keep your work area clean and well lit.
Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such
as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases, or dust.
Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away while operat-
ing a power tool.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
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 adaptor plugs. Check
with a qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether
the outlet is properly grounded.
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.
Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces such as pipes,
radiators, ranges and refrigerators.
Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions.
Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord to carry the tools
or pull the plug from an outlet. Keep cord away from heat,
oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Replace damaged cords
immediately.
When operating a power tool outside, use an outdoor
extension cord marked W-A or W.
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.
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry.
Contain long hair. Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves away
from moving parts.
