GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS
WARNING: Reada,,safetywarn,ngsanda,,,nstruot,onsFa,uretofo,,ow
the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
CALiFORNiA PROPOSiTiON 65
WARNING: attoryposts,terminals and certain finished components
contain lead, lead compounds and chemicals known to the State of California to cause
cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm. Wash hands after handling.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
The term " power tool " in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool.
1) WORK AREA SAFETY
a) Keep work area clean and weil lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
b) 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.
c) Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool Distractions can cause you
to lose control.
DO NOT start the operation until the work area is clear and free from obstructions and there is
secure footing.
2) 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 risk of electric shock.
b) 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.
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 cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords
increase the risk of electric shock.
e) 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.
f) If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual current
device(ROD) protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.
NOTE : The term " residual current device (RCD) "may be replaced by the term "ground fault circuit
interrupter (GFCI)" or "earth leakage circuit breaker (ELCB)".
Make sure the extension cord is heavy enough to carry the current drawn by the unit. An undersized
cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. If in doubt, use the
next heavier gauge cord. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shook, only use extension cords
suitable for outdoor use, such as SW-A, SOW-A, STW-A, STOW-A, SJW-A, SJOW-A,
SJTW-A or SJTOW-A cord types.

SYMBOL MEANING
DANGER: Sigoa,sanEXTREMEhazard.
Failure to obey a safety DANGER signal WiLL result in serious injury or death to
yourself or to others.
WARNING: S,gna,sasER,oushazard.
Failure to obey a safety WARNING signal CAN result in serious injury to yourself or
to others.
CAUTION: Signa,saMODERATEhazard.
Failure to obey a safety CAUTION signal MAY result in property damage or injury to
yourself or to others.
iMPORTANT! Signals special mechanical information.
NOTE: Signals additional important general information.
DO NOT handle the unit, plug(s) or cord(s) with wet hands.
DO NOT operate the unit on wet surfaces.
DO NOT cut near electrical cables or power lines.
DO NOT use multiple extension cords.
Keep the cords away from the cutting area and position the cords so that they will not be caught on
branches or other obstacles that may bind or entangle the cords during operation.
Keep the cords away from the operator's feet to prevent tripping.
Make sure the cords are in good condition. Inspect the power cord and extension cord periodically.
Look closely for deterioration, cuts or cracks in the insulation. If the power cord is damaged, have it
repaired by an authorized service center. If the extension cord is damaged, replace it. Do not use a
damaged cord or plug.
If the extension cord is damaged in any manner while plugged in, disconnect the extension cord
from the receptacle.
Since the unit is double-insulated, a 2-wire extension cord (one without a ground) may be used.
However, a 3-wire extension cord (one with a ground) that uses a NEMA-type connector (parallel
blade, U ground) is recommended. Extension cords are available from local retailers.
To reduce the risk of electrical shock, this unit has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the
other) and will require the use of a polarized extension cord. The power cord plug will fit into a
polarized extension cord only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the extension cord, reverse
the plug. If the plug still does not fit, obtain another polarized extension cord. A polarized extension
cord will require the use of a polarized wall outlet. This plug will fit into the polarized wall outlet only
one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the wall outlet, reverse the plug. If the plug still does not fit,
contact a qualified electrician to install the proper wall outlet.
A nameplate on your unit indicates the voltage used. Never connect the unit to an AC voltage that
differs from this voltage.
Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) protection should be provided on the circuit(s) or outlet(s) that
will be used with the unit. For an extra measure of safety, use receptacles with built-in GFCI protection.
To reduce the likelihood of disconnecting the extension cord from the unit, be sure to use the cord
restraint provided.
Servicing a Double=insulated Unit
This is a double-insulated unit. Two systems of insulation are provided instead of grounding. There
is no grounding provided and no means of grounding should be added to the unit. Servicing a
double-insulated unit requires extreme care and knowledge of the system and should only be done
by qualified service personnel. Replacement parts for a double-insulated unit must be identical to
the parts they replace. Failure to have a double-insulated unit repaired by an authorized service
technician with identical replacement parts could result in serious injury.
3) PERSONAL SAFETY
a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do
not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication.
A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
b) Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment
such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate
conditions will reduce personal injuries.
c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off=position before connecting to
power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with
your finger on the switch or energizing power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left
attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.
e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at aHtimes. This enables better control of
the power tool in unexpected situations.
f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves
away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
g) if devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure
these are connected and properly used. Use of dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.
DO NOT rely exclusively upon the safety devices built into the unit.
DO NOT allow the unit to be used as a toy.
DO NOT attempt operations beyond the operator's capacity or experience.
DO NOT leave the unit unattended while the unit is connected to the power source. Unplug the
unit from the power source when not in use.
Be thoroughly familiar with the controls and the proper use of the unit. Know how to stop the unit
and disengage the controls quickly.
Never allow children to operate the unit.
Make sure that all guards and safety attachments are properly installed before operating the unit.
