Work Area Safety
• 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, and dusts. Tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
• Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away while operating a tool. Distractions can
cause you to lose control.
• Keep floors dry and free of slippery materials such as oil. Slippery floors invite accidents.
