GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS

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 well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.

b) Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of ﬂ ammable

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. Unmodiﬁ ed 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 ground fault circuit

interrupter (GFCI) protected supply. Use of a GFCI reduces the risk of electric shock.

NOTE : The term “ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI)” may be replaced by the term residual

current device (RCD)” 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.

• 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 suitable for outdoor use (one without a

ground) may be used. However, a 3-wire extension cord suitable for outdoor use (one with a ground)

that uses a NEMA-type connector (parallel blade, U ground) can be used. 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 ﬁ t into a

polarized extension cord only one way. If the plug does not ﬁ t fully into the extension cord, reverse

the plug. If the plug still does not ﬁ t, obtain another polarized extension cord. A polarized extension

cord will require the use of a polarized wall outlet. This plug will ﬁ t into the polarized wall outlet only

one way. If the plug does not ﬁ t fully into the wall outlet, reverse the plug. If the plug still does not ﬁ t,

contact a qualiﬁ ed 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.

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 inﬂ uence 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 ﬁ nger 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 all times. 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.

• Never allow bystanders to contact the unit or extension cord.

•

Wear safety goggles, or safety glasses with side shields, that are marked as meeting ANSI Z87.1-

1989 standards. Failure to do so could result in serious eye injury caused by thrown or falling objects.

• Wear non-slip protective gloves and boots.
