WARNING: When using electric tools, basic safety precautions should
always be followed to reduce risk of fire, electric shock, and personal injury,
including the following:
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS

Double Insulation

Double insulated tools are constructed throughout with two separate layers
of electrical insulation or one double thickness of insulation between you
and the tool's electrical system. Tools built with this insulation system are
not intended to be grounded. As a result, your tool is equipped with a two
prong plug which permits you to use extension cords without concern for
maintaining a ground connection.
NOTE: Double insulation does not take the place of normal safety precau-
tions when operating this tool. The insulation system is for added protection
against injury resulting from a possible electrical insulation failure within the
tool.
CAUTION: WHEN SERVICING USE ONLY IDENTICAL REPLACEMENT
PARTS. Repair or replace damaged cords.

Safety Instructions For All Tools

KEEP WORK AREA CLEAN. Cluttered areas and benches invite injuries.
CONSIDER WORK AREA ENVIRONMENT. Don't expose power tools to rain.
Don't use power tools in damp or wet locations. Keep work area well lit. Do
not use tool in presence of flammable liquids or gases.
GUARD AGAINST ELECTRIC SHOCK. Prevent body contact with grounded
surfaces. For example; pipes, radiators, ranges, and refrigerator enclosures.

KEEP CHILDREN AWAY. Do not let visitors contact tool or extension cord.
All visitors should be kept away from work area.
STORE IDLE TOOLS. When not in use, tools should be stored in dry, and
high or locked-up place — out of reach of children.
DON'T FORCE TOOL. It will do the job better and safer at the rate for which
it was intended.
USE RIGHT TOOL. Don't force small tool or attachment to do the job of a
heavy-duty tool. Don't use tool for purpose not intended.
DRESS PROPERLY. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. They can be
caught in moving parts. Rubber gloves and non-skid footwear are recom-
mended when working outdoors. Wear protective hair covering to contain
long hair.
USE SAFETY GLASSES. Also use face or dust mask if operation is dusty.
DON'T ABUSE CORD. Never carry tool by cord or yank it to disconnect from
receptacle. Keep cord from heat, oil, and sharp edges.
SECURE WORK. Use clamps or a vise to hold work. It's safer than using
your hand and it frees both hands to operate tool.
DON'T OVERREACH. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE. Keep tools sharp and clean for better and
safer performance. Follow instructions for lubricating and changing acces-
sories. Inspect tool cords periodically and if damaged, have repaired by
authorized service facility. Inspect extension cords periodically and replace
if damaged. Keep handles dry, clean, and free from oil and grease.
DISCONNECT OR LOCK OFF TOOLS when not in use, before servicing, and
when changing accessories, such as blades, bits, cutters.
REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS AND WRENCHES. Form habit of checking to
see that keys and adjusting wrenches are removed from tool before turning
it on.
AVOID UNINTENTIONAL STARTING. Don't carry tool with finger on switch.
Be sure switch is off when plugging in.
EXTENSION CORDS. Make sure your extension cord is in good condition.
When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry
