ELECTRICAL SAFETY
4. Grounded lights must be plugged into an outlet properly installed and grounded in ac-
cordance with all codes and ordinances. Never remove the grounding prong or mod-
ify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs. Check with a qualified elec-
trician 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.
5. Double insulated lights are equipped with a polarized plug (one blade is wider than
the other). This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit
fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician
to install a polarized outlet. Do not change the plug in any way. Double insulation elimi-
nates the need for the three wire grounded power cord and grounded power supply system.
6. 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 grounded.
7. Do not expose the Halogen Light to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool
will increase the risk of electric shock.
8. Do not abuse the Power Cord. Never use the Power Cord to carry the light or pull the
Plug from an outlet. Keep the Power Cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges, or moving
parts. Replace damaged Power Cords immediately. Damaged Power Cords increase
the risk of electric shock.
9. When operating a light outside, use an outdoor extension cord marked “W-A” or “W”.
These extension cords are rated for outdoor use, and reduce the risk of electricshock.
PERSONAL SAFETY
10. Stay alert. Watch what you are doing, and use common sense when operating the
Halogen Light. Do not use the Halogen Light while tired or under the influence of
drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment of inattention while operating the light may
result in serious personal injury.
11. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Contain long hair. Keep your
hair, clothing, and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair
can be caught in moving parts.
12. Avoid accidental starting. Be sure the Power Switch is off before plugging in.
Carrying the Light with your finger on the Power Switch, or plugging in the light with
the Power Switch on, invites accidents.
13. Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before turning the Halogen Light on. A wrench or
a key that is left attached to a rotating part of the light may result in personal injury.
14. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Proper footing and
balance enables better control of the Halogen Light in unexpected situations.
