Work Area Safety
► Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or
dark work 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 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
for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
► 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.
► Never use an extension cord that is damaged,
including cuts, exposed wires, or bent/missing
prongs. Damaged extension cords increase the risk of fire
or electric shock.
► Use only extension cords rated for the purpose.
► Use only extension cords rated for the amperage of
this tool and the length of the cord. Using too small of
an extension cord can cause the cord to overheat.

Personal Safety
► 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 influence of
drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment of inattention
while operating power tools may result in serious personal
injury.
► 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 the risk of personal
injuries. (Eye protection must comply with ANSI Z87.1)
► Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in
the off-position before connecting to power source,
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.
► Remove adjusting key or wrench before turning the
power tool on. A wrench or a key that is left attached to a
rotating part of the tool may result in personal injury.
► Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at
all times. This enables better control of the tool in
unexpected situations.
► 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.
► 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.
Power Tool Use and Care
► Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power
tool for your application. The correct power tool will do
the job better and safer at the rate for which it is designed.
► Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn
it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with
the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
► Disconnect the plug from the power source before
making any adjustments, changing accessories,
transporting, or storing the tool. Such preventive safety
measures reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally.
► Store idle tools out of reach of children and do not
allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these
instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are
dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
► Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or
binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any
other condition that may affect the power tool’s
operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired
before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly
maintained power tools.
► Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained
tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are
easier to control.
► Use the power tool, accessories, and tool bits etc. in
accordance with these instructions, taking into
account the working conditions and the work to be
performed. Use of the power tool for operations different
from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.
