grounded in accordance with all codes and ordinances. Do not remove the
grounding prong or modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter
plugs. Check with a qualied electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the
outlet is properly grounded. If the tools should electrically malfunction or break
down, grounding provides a low resistance path to carry electricity away from the
user.
Double insulated tools are equipped with a polarized plug (one blade is 5.
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 qualied 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 surfaces such as pipes, radiators, 6.
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. 7. Water entering a power
tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
Do not abuse the Power Cord. Do not use the Power Cord to carry the tools 8.
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 outside, use an outdoor extension cord 9.
marked “W-A” or “W”. These extension cords are rated for outdoor use, and
reduce the risk of electric shock.
Stay alert. Watch what you are doing, and use common sense when 10.
operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while tired or under the
inuence 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. 11.
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. Be sure the Power Switch is off before plugging 12.
in. Carrying power tools with your nger on the Power Switch, or plugging in
power tools with the Power Switch on, invites accidents.
Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before turning the power tool on. 13. A
