WARNING:
BE SURE to read and understand
all instructions,
Failure
I
to follow all instructions
listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or
I
serious personal injury.
WORK AREA SAFETY
1. ALWAYS keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered and dark areas
invite accidents.
2. 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.
3. ALWAYS
keep bystanders,
children
and visitors
away while
operating
a
power tool. Distractions
can cause you to lose control.
ELECTRICAL
SAFETY
1. Double
insulated
tools are equipped
with a polarized
plug (one blade
is
wider than the other).This
plug will fit in a polarized
outlet
only one way.
If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse
the plug. If it still
does not fit, contact
a qualified
electrician
to install a polarized
outlet.
DO NOT change
or alter the plug in any way.
2. Double
insulation
[]
eliminates
the need for the three wire
grounded
power cord and grounded
power supply
system.
Applicable
only to Class II (double insulated)
tools.
3. ALWAYS 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.
4. DO NOT expose
power
tools to rain or wet conditions.
Water entering
a
power tool will increase
the risk of electric
shock.
5. DO NOT abuse
the cord, NEVER
use the cord to carry the tools or pull
the plug from
the outlet.
Keep cord away from
heat, oil, sharp
edges
or
moving
parts.
Replace
damaged
cords
immediately.
Damaged
cords
increase
the risk of electric
shock.
6. When
operating
a power tool, outside,
ALWAYS
use an outdoor
extension
cord marked
"W-A ' or 'W
. These cords are rated for outdoor
use and reduce the risk of electric shock.
7. ALWAYS
make sure that your extension
cord is in good condition.
When
using an extension
cord be sure to use one that is heavy enough
to
carry the current
that your tool will draw. A wire gauge (AWG) of at least
14 is recommended
for an extension
cord 25 feet or less in length. When
working
outdoors
ALWAYS
use an extension
cord that is suitable
for outdoor
use. The cord's jacket will be marked WA. Smaller
gauge
wires have
greater
capacity
(16 gauge
wire
has more
capacity
than
18 gauge
wire).
An undersized
cord will cause a drop in line voltage,
resulting
in loss of
power and overheating.
