GENERAL SAFETY RULES
WARNING! Read and understand
all instructions. Failure to follow all
instructions listed below may result in electric
shock, fire and / or serious personal injury.
The term “power tool” in all of the warnings
listed below refers to your mains-operated
(corded) power tool.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
Work area
a) Keep your work area clean and well lit.
Cluttered benches and dark areas invite
accidents.
b) Do not operate power tools in explosive
atmospheres, such as in the presence of
ammable liquid, gases, or dust. Power tools
create sparks which may ignite the dust or
fumes.
c) Keep bystanders, children, and visitors
away while operating a power tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose control.
Electrical Safety
a) Power tool plugs must match the outlet.
Never modify the plug in any way. Do
not use any adapter plugs with earthed
(grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs
and matching outlets will reduce the risk of
electric shock.
Grounded tools must be plugged 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 adaptor plugs. Check with a qualified
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.
b) 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 earthed or
grounded.
c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet
conditions. Water entering a power tool will
increase the risk of electric shock.
d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the
cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the
power tool. Keep the cord away from heat,
oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Replace
damaged cords immediately. Damaged or
entangled cords increase the risk of electric
shock.
e) When operating a power tool outdoors,
use an outdoor extension cord suitable
for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for
outdoor use reduces the risk of electric
shock.
