2. Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of
ammable liquids, gases, or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust
or fumes.
3. Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away while operating a power tool. Distrac-
tions can cause you to lose control. Protect others in the work area from debris such as
chips and sparks. Provide barriers or shields as needed.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
1. Double insulated tools are equipped with a polarized plug (one blade is wider than
the other). This plug will t in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does
not t fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not t, contact a qualied
electrician to install a polarized outlet. Do not change the plug in any way. Double
insulation eliminates the need for the three wire grounded power cord and grounded
power supply system.
2. 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.
3. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will
increase the risk of electric shock. Only use correct wet cut attachment for wet cutting.
4. Do not abuse the Power Cord. Never use the Power Cord to carry the tools 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.
5. When operating a power tool outside, use an outdoor extension cord marked “W-A”
or “W”. These extension cords are rated for outdoor use, and reduce the risk of electric
shock.
PERSONAL SAFETY
1. Stay alert. Watch what you are doing, and use common sense when operating a
power tool. Do not use a power tool while tired or under the inuence of drugs,
alcohol, or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result
in serious personal injury.
2. 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.
3. Avoid accidental starting. Be sure the Power Switch is off before plugging in. Car-
rying power tools with your nger on the Power Switch, or plugging in power tools with the
Power Switch on, invites accidents.
4. Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a
key that is left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.
