plugs with grounded power tools.

Unmodified plugs and matching out-

lets will reduce risk of electric shock.

b.

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.

c.

Do not expose power tools to rain

or wet conditions. Water entering

a power tool will increase the risk of

electric shock.

d.

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.

e.

When operating a power tool out-

doors, use an extension cord suit-

able for outdoor use. Use of a cord

suitable for outdoor use reduces the

risk of electric shock.

f.

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.

Personal safety

a.

Stay alert, watch what you are do-

ing and use common sense when

operating a power tool. Do not use

a power tool while you are tired

or under the influence of drugs,

alcohol or medication. A moment

of inattention while operating power

tools may result in serious personal

injury.

b.

Use safety equipment. Always

wear ANSI-approved eye protec-

tion. Safety equipment such as dust

mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard

hat, or hearing protection used for

appropriate conditions will reduce

personal injuries.

c.

Keep guards in place and in good

working order.

d.

Prevent unintentional starting.

Ensure the switch is in the off-po-

sition before connecting to power

source and/or battery pack, pick-

ing up or carrying the tool. Carry-

ing power tools with your finger on

the switch or energizing power tools

that have the switch on invites acci-

dents.

e.

Remove any adjusting key or

wrench before turning the power

tool on. A wrench or a key left at-

tached to a rotating part of the power

tool may result in personal injury.

f.

Do not overreach. Keep proper

footing and balance at all times.

This enables better control of the

power tool in unexpected situations.

g.

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.

h.

lection facilities, ensure these are

connected and properly used. Use

of these devices can reduce dust-

related hazards.
