GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY
WARNINGS
WARNING! Read all safety
warnings, instructions, illustrations
and specifications provided with
this power tool. Failure to follow all
instructions listed below may result in
electric shock, re and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for
future reference.
The term “power tool’’ in the warnings
refers to your mains-operated (corded)
power tool or battery-operated (cordless)
power tool.
WORK AREA SAFETY
■ Keep work area clean and well
lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite
accidents.
■ Do not operate power tools in
explosive atmospheres, such as in
the presence of flammable liquids,
gases or dust. Power tools create
sparks which may ignite the dust or
fumes.
■ Keep children and bystanders
away while operating a power tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose
control.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
■ 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 risk of
electric shock.
■ Avoid body contact with earthed or
grounded surfaces, such as pipes,
radiators, ranges and refrigerators.
There is an increased risk of electric
shock if your body is earthed or
grounded.
■ Do not expose power tools to rain
or wet conditions. Water entering
a power tool will increase the risk of
electric shock.
■ Do not abuse the cord. Never use
the cord for carrying, pulling or
unplugging the power tool. Keep
cord away from heat, oil, sharp
edges or moving parts. Damaged or
entangled cords increase the risk of
electric shock.
■ When operating a power tool
outdoors, use an extension cord
suitable for outdoor use. Use of a
cord suitable for outdoor use reduces
the risk of electric shock.
