Electrical Safety
Grounded tools must be plugged 1.
into an outlet properly installed and
grounded in accordance with all
codes and ordinances. Never remove
the grounding prong or modify the
plug in any way. Do not use any
adapter plugs. Check with a qualied
electrician if you are in doubt whether
the outlet is properly grounded. If the
tool should electrically malfunction or
break down, grounding provides a low
resistance path to carry electricity away
from the user.
Double insulated tools are equipped 2.
with a polarized plug (one blade is
wider than the other). This plug will
t in a polarized outlet only one way.
If the plug does not t fully in the
outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does
not t, contact a qualied electrician
to install a polarized outlet. Do not
change the plug in any way. Double
insulation eliminates the need for the
three wire grounded power cord and
grounded power supply system.
Avoid body contact with grounded 3.
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 4.
wet conditions. Water entering a power
tool will increase the risk of electric
shock.
Do not abuse the Power Cord.5. Never
use the Power Cord to carry the tool
or pull the Plug from an outlet. Keep
the Power Cord away from heat, oil,
sharp edges, or moving parts. Replace
damaged Power Cords immediately.
Damaged Power Cords increase the risk
of electric shock.
When operating a power tool 6.
outside, use an outdoor extension
cord marked “W-A” or “W”. These
extension cords are rated for outdoor
use, and reduce the risk of electric
shock.
Personal Safety
Stay alert. Watch what you are 1.
doing, and use common sense when
operating a power tool. Do not use
a power tool while tired or under
the inuence 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 2.
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.
Avoid accidental starting.3. Be sure the
Power Switch is off before plugging
in.
on the Power Switch, or plugging in
power tools with the Power Switch on,
invites accidents.
Remove adjusting keys or wrenches 4.
before turning the power tool on. A
wrench or a key that is left attached to a
rotating part of the power tool may result
in personal injury.
Do not overreach. Keep proper 5.
footing and balance at all times.
Proper footing and balance enables
better control of the power tool in
unexpected situations.
Use safety equipment. Always wear 6.
eye protection. Dust mask, non-skid
safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing
