Power tool use and care
17. Do not force the power tool. Use the correct
power tool for your application. The correct
power tool will do the job better and safer at the
rate for which it was designed.
18. Do not use the power tool if the switch does
not turn it on and off. Any power tool that
cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous
and must be repaired.
19. Disconnect the plug from the power source
and/or the battery pack from the power tool
before making any adjustments, changing
accessories, or storing power tools. Such
preventive safety measures reduce the risk of
starting the power tool accidentally.
20. Store idle power tools out of the reach of
children and do not allow persons unfamiliar
with the power tool or these instructions to
operate the power tool. Power tools are
dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
21. Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or
binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and
any other condition that may affect the power
tool's operation. If damaged, have the power tool
repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by
poorly maintained power tools.
22. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges
are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
23. Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits
etc. in accordance with these instructions,

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS:

This tool should be grounded while in use to protect
the operator from electric shock. The tool is
equipped with a three-conductor cord and three-
prong grounding type plug to fit the proper
grounding type receptacle. The green (or green and
yellow) conductor in the cord is the grounding wire.
Never connect the green (or green and yellow) wire
to a live terminal. Your unit is for use on 120 volts
and has a plug that looks like Fig. "A".

taking into account the working conditions
and the work to be performed. Use of the
power tool for operations different from those
intended could result in a hazardous situation.
Service
24. Have your power tool serviced by a qualified
repair
replacement parts. This will ensure that the
safety of the power tool is maintained.
25. Follow
changing accessories.
26. Keep handles dry, clean and free from oil and
grease.
USE PROPER EXTENSION CORD. Use only three-
wire extension
grounding-type plugs and three-pole receptacles
that accept the tool's plug. Make sure your
extension cord is in good condition. Replace or
repair damaged or worn cord immediately. When
using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy
enough to carry the current your product will draw.
An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage
resulting in loss of power and overheating. Table 1
shows the correct size to use depending on cord
length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use
the next heavier gage. The smaller the gage number,
the heavier the cord.
