The term „power tool" in the warnings re-
fers to your mains-operated (corded) power
tool or battery-operated (cordless) power
tool).
1) Work area safety :
a) Keep work area clean and well lit.
Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
b) Do not operate power tools in ex-
plosive atmospheres, such as in the
presence of flammable Iiquids, gases
or dust. Power tools create sparks
which may ignite the dust or fumes.
c) Keep children and bystanders away
while operating a power tool. Distrac-
tions can cause you to lose control.
2) Electrical safety :
CAUTION! The following states how
to avoid accidents and injuries due
to electric shock:
a) 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
b) 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 ground-
ed.
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 unplug-
