well lit. Cluttered or dark ar-

b) Do not operate power
tools in explosive atmos-

may ignite the dust or fumes.
c) Keep children and by-

control.
2) ELECTRICAL SAFETY
a) Power tool plugs must
match the outlet. Never
modify the plug in any
way. Do not use any
adapter plugs with

matching outlets will reduce risk
of electric shock.
b) Avoid body contact with
earthed or grounded sur-

risk of electric shock if your
body is earthed or grounded.
c) Do not expose power
tools to rain or wet condi-
