2) 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.
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
1. 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. If the tools should electrically malfunction or break down, grounding provides a low resistance
path to carry electricity away from the user.
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. Don't 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 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.
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.
PERSONAL SAFETY
1. Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use tools
when tired 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 accidents.
4. 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.
5. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Proper footing and balance enables better
control of the tool in unexpected situations.
6. Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat or hearing
protection must be used for appropriate conditions.
TOOL USE AND CARE
1. 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.
