GENERAL SAFETY RULES

WARNING
Read all instructions. Failure to follow all
instructions listed below may result in electric
shock, fire and/or serious injury. The term
"power tool'' in all of the warnings listed below
refers to your mains operated (corded) power
tool or battery operated (cordless) power tool.
SAFETY ALERT SYMBOL. Indicates caution or
warning. May be used in conjunction with other
symbols or pictures.
WARNING: Failure to obey a safety warning can
result in serious injury to yourself or to others.
Always follow the safety precautions to reduce
the risk of fire, electric shock and personal injury.
WARNING: Do not attempt to operate this tool
until you have read thoroughly and understood
completely safety rules, etc. contained in this
manual. Failure to comply can result in accidents
involving fire, electric shock or serious personal
injury. Save owners manual and review
frequently for continuing safe operation and
instructing others who may use this tool.
The operation of any tool can result in
foreign objects being thrown into your
eyes, which can result in severe eye
damage. Before beginning power tool
operation, always wear safety goggles
or safety glasses with side shields and
a full face shield when needed. We recommend Wide
Vision Safety Mask for use over eyeglasses or standard
safety glasses with side shields.
WORK AREA
Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered and
dark areas invite accidents.
Do not operate power tools in explosive
atmospheres, such as in the presence of
flammable liquids, gases, or dust. Power tools
create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.

Keep children and bystanders away while
operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you
to lose control.

ELECTRICAL SAFETY

Power tool plugs must match the outlet.
Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any
adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools.
Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce
risk of electric shock.
Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded
surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and
refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric
shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
Do not 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 for
carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool.
Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or
moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase
the risk of electric shock.
When operating a power tool outdoors,
use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use.
Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the
risk of electric shock.
PERSONAL SAFETY
Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use
common sense when operating a power tool.
Do not use a power tool while you are tired or
under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication.
A moment of inattention while operating power tools
may result in serious personal injury.
Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection.
Safety equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety
shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for
appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the switch is in
the off position before plugging in. Carrying power
tools with your finger on the switch or plugging in
power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
Remove any adjusting key or wrench before
turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left
attached to a rotating part of the power tool may
result in personal injury.
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and
balance at all times. This enables better control of
the power tool in unexpected situations.
