GENERAL SAFETY RULES

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
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 or
fumes.
3 Keep bystanders, children, and visitors
away while operating a power tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose control.
Electrical safety
4a 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.
4b 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
the need for the three wire grounded power cord
and grounded power supply system.
5 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.
6 Don't expose power tools to rain or wet
conditions. Water entering a power tool will
increase the risk of electric shock.
7 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. Damaged cords
increase the risk of electric shock.
8 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.
9 Stay alert, watch what you are doing
and use common sense when operating a
power tool. Do not use 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.
10 Dress properly. Do not wear loose
clothing or jewellery. Contain long hair.
Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves away
from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery,
or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
11 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.
12 Remove adjusting keys or switches
before turning the tool on. A wrench or key
that is left attached to a rotating part of the tool
may result in personal injury.
13 Do not overreach. Stand on both feet an
keep proper footing and balance at all
times. Proper footing and balance enables
better control of the tool in unexpected
situations.
14 Use safety equipment. Always wear eye
protection. Dust mask, non-skid safety shoes,
hard hat, or hearing protection must be used for
appropriate conditions.
15 Use clamps or other practical way to
secure and support the workpiece to a
stable platform. Holding the work by hand or
against your body is unstable and may lead to
loss of control.
eliminates
16 Do not force tool. 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.
17 Do not use tool if switch does not turn it
on or off. Any tool that cannot be controlled with
the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
18 Disconnect the plug from the power
source before making any adjustments,
changing accessories, or storing the tool.
Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk
of starting the tool accidentally.
19 Store idle tools out of reach of children
and other untrained persons. Tools are
dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
20 Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting
tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained
tools, with sharp cutting edges are less likely to
bind and are easier to control.
