GENERAL SAFETY RULES
(For All Tools)
WARNING! Read and understand all instructions. Failure
to follow all instructions listed below, may result in electric
shock, fire and/or serious personal injury.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS.
1. Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered benches 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.
Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away while operating a power tool.
Distractions can cause you to loose control.
4. 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
in the outlet, reverse the plug. If
it
still does not fit,
contact a qualified electrician to install a polarized outlet. Do not change
the plug in any way. Double insulation
H
eliminates the need for the three
wire grounded power cord and grounded power supply system.
5. 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.
6. Don't expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power
tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
7. Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord t o carry the tools or pull the plug
from an outlet. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts.
Replace damaged cords immediately. Damaged cords increase the risk of
electric shock.
8.
When operating a power tool outside, use an outdoor extension cord marked
"W-A" or "W."
These cords are rated for outdoor use and reduce the risk
of electric shock.
9.
Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating
a power tool. Do not use tool while tired or under the influence of drugs,
alcohol, or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools
may result in serious personal injury.
I O . Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Contain long hair. Keep
your hair, clothing, and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry
or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
