= Hold power tools by their insulated gripping surfaces when performing
an operation where the cutting tool may contact hidden wiring or its
own cord. Contact with a "live" wire will also make exposed metal parts of
the tool "live" and shock the operator.

applications and limitations, as well as the specific potential hazards
elated to this tool. Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock,
fire or serious injury.
= Always wear safety glasses with side shields. Everyday glasses have
only impact resistant lenses. They are not safety glasses. Following this
rule will reduce the risk of eye injury.
= Protect your lungs. Wear a face or dust mask if the operation is dusty.
Following this rule will reduce the risk of serious personal injury.
= Protect your hearing. Wear hearing protection during extended periods
of operation. Following this rule will reduce the risk of serious person injury.
