3. 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.
4. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power
tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
5. Do not abuse the Power Cord. Never use the Power Cord to carry the tool
or pull the Plug from an outlet. Keep the Power Cord away from heat, oil, sharp
edges, or moving parts. Replace damaged Power Cords immediately. Damaged
Power Cords increase the risk of electric shock.
6. When operating a power tool outside, sue an outdoor extension cord marker
"W-A" or "W". These extension cords are rated for outdoor use, and reduce the
risk of electric shock.
Personal Safety
1. Stay alert. Watch what you are doing, and use common sense when operating
a power tool. Do not use a power tool while tired or under the influence of drugs, al-
cohol, or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result
in serious personal injury.
2. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Contain long hair. Keep
your hair, clothing, and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long
hair can be caught in moving parts.
3. Avoid accidental staring. Be sure the Power Switch is off before plugging in.
Carrying power tools with your finger on the Power Switch, or plugging in power tools
with the Power Switch on, invites accidents.
4. Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before turning the power tool
on. A wrench or a key that is left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may
result in personal injury.
5. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Proper footing
and balance enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
6. Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Dust mask, non-skid safety
shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection must be used for appropriate conditions.
Tool Use and Care
1. Use clamps (not included) or other practical ways to secure and
support the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the work piece by
hand ro against your body is unstable and may lead to loss of control.
2. Do not force the tool. Use the correct tool for your application. The correct

tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it is designed.
3. Do not use the power tool if the Power Switch does not turn it on
or off. Any tool that cannot be controlled with the Power Switch is dangerous and
must be replaced.
4. Disconnect the Power Cord Plug from the power source before ma-
king any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing the tool. Such
preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally.
5. Store idle tools out of reach of children and other untrained per-
sons. Tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
6. Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting tools maintained and clean. Properly
maintained tools are less likely to bind and are easier to control. Do not use a damaged
tool. Tag damaged tools "Do not use" until repaired
7. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of
parts, and any other condition that may affect the tool's operation.
If damaged, have the tool serviced before using. Many accidents are caused by poorly
maintained tools.
8. Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer
for your model. Accessories that may be suitable for one tool may become hazar-
dous when used on another tool.
Service
1. Tool service must be performed only by qualified repair personnel.
Service or maintenance performed by unqualified personnel could result in a risk of
injury.
2. When servicing a tool, use only identical replacement parts. Use of
unauthorized parts or failure to follow maintenance instructions may create a risk of
electric shock or injury.
SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES
1. Maintain labels and nameplates on the tool. These carry important
information. If unreadable or missing, contact our service team for a replacement.
2. Always wear the approved safety impact eye goggles and heavy
