WORK AREA SAFETY
• Keep work area clean and well lit.
Cluttered or dark 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 (Fig. ).
Distractions can cause you to lose control.
CAUTION: ESTABLISH A
BYSTANDER SAFETY ZONE OF 3 M
10 FT PRIOR TO OPERATION OF
THIS EQUIPMENT. Bystander safety zone
is a m ( ft) circle around the operator
that must remain free from bystanders,
children, and pets.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
• 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.
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
suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of
electric shock.
