Power Tool Safety Rules
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
Work Area
Keep your work area clean and well lit.
Cluttered
benches 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 by-standers,
children, and visitors
away
while
operating
a power
tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose control.
Electrical
Safety
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
IDI
eliminates
the need
for the
three
wire
grounded
power
cord
and
grounded
power
supply
system.
Before
plugging
in the too!
be certain
the outlet
voltage supplied
/# within the voltage marked
on the nameplate.
Do not
use
"_AC only"
rated tools with a OC power
suppl_
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.
If
operating
the power tool in damp locations
is
unavoidable,
a
Ground
Fault
Circuit
Interrupter
must be used to supply the power
to your tool. Electrician's
rubber
gloves
and
footwear
will further
enhance
your personal
safety.
Don't
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 to 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.
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.
Refer to "Recommended
sizes of Extension
Cords"
in the Accessory
section
of this
manual.
Personal
Safety
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.
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.
Keep
handles
dry, clean
and free from
oil
and grease.
Avoid
accidental
starting.
Be sure
switch
is "OFF"
before
plugging
in. Carrying
tools
with your finger
on the switch
or plugging
in
tools
that
have
the switch
"ON"
invites
accidents.
Remove
adjusting
keys
or wrenches
before
turning
the tool "ON".
A wrench
or
a key that is left attached
to a rotating
part of
the tool may result in personal
injury.
Do not overreach.
Keep
proper
footing
and balance
at all times.
Proper footing
and
balance
enables
better control
of the tool in
unexpected
situations.
Use safety
equipment.
Always
wear
eye
protection.
Dust
mask,
non-skid
safety
shoes,
hard hat, or hearing
protection
must
be used for appropriate
conditions.
Tool Use and Care
Use clamps
or other practical
way to
secure and support the workpiece
to a
stable platform. Holding the work by hand
or against your body is unstable and may
lead to loss of control.
