GENERAL SAFETY RULES

General Power Tool Safety Warnings - Work Area
• Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered benches and dark areas invite accidents.
• Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres such as in the presence of flammable liquids,
gases, or dust. Power tools may 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.
General Power Tool Safety Warnings - Electrical Safety
• Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and
refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
• Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter
plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of
electric shock.
• Don't expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. 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 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.
• When operating a power tool outdoors, use an outdoor extension cord market "W-A" or "W". These
cords are rated for outdoor use and reduce the risk of electric shock.
• If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI)
protected power supply. Use of a GFCI reduces the risk of electric shock.
General Power Tool Safety Warnings - 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 inattention
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, clothing,
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 rotating part of the tool may result in personal injury.
• Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Proper footing and balance enables
better control of the tool in unexpected situations.
• Use safety equipment. Always use eye protection. Dust mask, nonskid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing
protection must be used for appropriate conditions.
• Do not use on a ladder or unstable surface.
General Power Tool Safety Warnings - Tool Use and Care
• Use clamps or other practical ways 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.
• 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 was designed.
• 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.
• Disconnect the plug from the power source before making any adjustments, changing accessories,
or storing the tool. Such preventative safety measures reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally.
• Store idle tools out of the reach of children and other untrained persons. Tools are dangerous in the
hands of untrained users.
