Power Tool Hazard
To prevent personal injury or possible
death, always follow the electrical safety

manufacturer. Do not use power tools in an unsafe
manner. Power tools should only be connected to a circuit
protected by a ground-fault circuit interrupter (GFI).
Shock Hazard
Never use electric power tools around
water, condensation, or other liquids.
Electric shock can cause severe
burns, significant injuries, and even death. If an
extension cord is required, always use an OSHA
approved extension cord. Power cords should only be
connected to a circuit protected by a ground-fault circuit
interrupter (GFI).
Electrical Shock Hazard
Contacting l
ive electrical wiring with
power tools or hand tools can cause
serious injury or death. Make sure all
related circuit breakers are turned OFF. Test for live circuits
or wiring inside any wall where installation of the
Swanstone product requires cutting into a wall.
Electrocution Hazard
Water and other liquids conduct electric
current and can create a short circuit,
resulting in injury or death. Keep all
liquids away from electrical cords and power tools. DO
NOT create a short circuit between a source of electricity
