outlets will reduce risk of electric
shock.
Avoid body contact with grounded
b.
surfaces such as pipes, radiators,
ranges and refrigerators. There is
an increased risk of electric shock if
your body is grounded.
Do not expose power tools to rain
c.
or wet conditions. Water entering a
power tool will increase the risk of
electric shock.
Do not abuse the cord. Never use
d.
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
e.
outdoors, use an extension cord
suitable for outdoor use. Use of
a cord suitable for outdoor use
reduces the risk of electric shock.
Personal safety 3.
Stay alert, watch what you are a.
doing 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.
Use safety equipment. Always wear
b.
ANSI-approved eye protection.
Safety equipment such as dust
mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard
hat, or hearing protection used for
appropriate conditions will reduce
personal injuries.
Avoid accidental starting. Ensure
c.
the switch is in the off-position
before plugging in. Carrying power
tools with your finger on the switch
or plugging in power tools that have
the switch on invites accidents.
Do not overreach. Keep proper
d.
footing and balance at all times.
This enables better control of the
power tool in unexpected situations.
Dress properly. Do not wear loose
e.
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.
Power tool use and care 4.
Do not force the power tool. Use a.
the correct power tool for your
application. The correct power tool
will do the job better and safer at the
rate for which it was designed.
Do not use the power tool if the
b.
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
c.
tool before making any adjustments,
changing accessories, or storing
power tools. Such preventive safety
measures reduce the risk of starting
the power tool accidentally.
Store idle power tools out of the
d.
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
e.
misalignment or binding of moving
parts, breakage of parts and any
other condition that may affect the
