1. Keep the work area clean and tidy. Cluttered work
areas and benches invite accidents and injury.

Do not use power tools in damp or wet locations. Keep
the work area well lit. Do not expose power tools to
rain and high humidity. Do not use power tools in the
presence of flammable liquids or gases.
3. Keep visitors away from the work area. All visitors
and onlookers, especially children and infirm persons
should be kept well away from where you are working.
Do not let others in the vicinity make contact with the
tool or extension cord.
4. Store tools safely. When not in use, tools should be
stored in a dry, high place or locked up out of reach.
5. Do not force the tool. The tool will do the job
better and safer working at the rate for which it
was designed.
6. Use the correct tool for the job. Do not force small
tools or attachments to do the job best handled by a
heavier duty tool. Never use a tool for a purpose other
than that for which it was intended.
7. Dress correctly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry.
