• 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.
• 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 outside, use an outdoor exten-
sion cord marked "W-A" or "W." These cords are rated for out-
door use and reduce the risk of electric shock.

• Avoid accidental starting. Be sure switch is off before plug-
ging in. Carrying tools with your finger on the switch or plugging in
tools that have the switch on invites accidents.

any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing the tool.
Such preventative safety measures reduce the risk of starting the
tool accidentally.
