READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
WORK AREA SAFETY
• Keep the work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or 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 grounded power tools.
Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce the risk of electric shock.
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.
Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a
power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
Inspect the tool cords periodically and, if damaged, have them repaired
at your nearest Sears Service Center. Be aware of the cord location.
Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling, or
unplugging the power tool. Keep the cord away from heat, oil, sharp
edges, or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of
electric shock.
