The term ″power tool″ in the warnings refers to
your mains-operated (corded) power tool.
Work Area Safety
1.
Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
2.
Power tools
create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
3.
Distractions can cause you to lose control.
Electrical Safety
1.
Unmodified plugs and matching
outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
2.
There is an increased risk of
electric shock if your body is grounded.
3.
Water entering a power tool
will increase the risk of electric shock.
4.
Damaged or entangled
cords increase the risk of electric shock.
5.
Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use
reduces the risk of electric shock.
6.

Personal Safety
1.
A moment
of inattention while operating power tools
may result in serious personal injury.
2.
Safety equipment such as
dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat,
or hearing protection used for appropriate
conditions will reduce personal injuries.
3.
Carrying power tools with your finger
on the switch or energizing power tools that
have the switch on invites accidents.
4.
A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part
of the power tool may result in personal injury.
5.
This enables better control
of the power tool in unexpected situations.

these devices can reduce dust-related hazards.
8. Only use safety equipment that has been approved

protection. Eye protection must be ANSI‑approved
and breathing protection must be NIOSH‑approved
for the specific hazards in the work area.
