of inattention while operating appliances may result in
serious personal injury.
b) Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye

e) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning
the appliance on. A wrench or a key left attached to
a rotating part of the appliance may result in personal
injury.
f) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance
at all times. This enables better control of the appliance
in unexpected situations.
g) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or
jewelry. Keep your hair and clothing away from
moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can
be caught in moving parts. Verify that all connections are
secure before operating the appliance.

ignore appliance safety principles. A careless action
can cause severe injury within a fraction of a second.
3) Appliance Use and Care
a) Do not force the appliance. Use the correct
appliance for your application. The correct appliance
will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was
designed.

it on and off. Any appliance that cannot be controlled
with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
c) Disconnect the plug from the power source and/
or remove the battery pack, if detachable, from the
appliance before making any adjustments, changing
accessories, or storing appliances. Such preventive
safety measures reduce the risk of starting the appliance
accidentally.
