WARNING!
"READ ALL INSTRUC-
TIONS". Failure to follow the SAFETY RULES
identified by the BULLET (•) symbols listed
BELOW and other safety precautions, may
result in serious personal injury. Keep these
operating instructions with this product.
GENERAL SAFETY RULES
for all Power Tools
Work Area
• KEEP WORK AREAS CLEAN. Cluttered
areas and benches invite accidents.
• AVOID DANGEROUS ENVIRONMENT.
Don't use power tools in damp or wet locations.
Do not expose power tools to rain. Keep work
area well lit.
• AVOID GASEOUS AREAS. Do not oper-
ate portable electric tools in explosive atmo-
spheres in presence of flammable liquids or
gases. Motors in these tools normally spark,
and the sparks might ignite fumes.
• KEEP CHILDREN AWAY. Do not let
visitors contact tool or extension cord. All
visitors should be kept away from work areas.
Personal Safety
• GUARD AGAINST ELECTRIC SHOCK.
Prevent body contact with grounded surfaces
such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerator
enclosures. Rubber gloves and non-skid foot-
wear are recommended when working out-
doors, where damp or wet ground may be
encountered. A Ground Fault Circuit Inter-
rupter protected power line must be used for
these conditions.
• DRESS PROPERLY. Do not wear loose
clothing or jewelry. They can be caught in
moving parts. Wear protective hair covering to
contain long hair.
• USE SAFETY EQUIPMENT. WEAR
SAFETY GOGGLES or glasses with side
shields. Wear hearing protection during ex-
tended use of power tools and dust mask for
dusty operations.
• STAY ALERT. USE COMMON SENSE.
Watch what you are doing. Do not operate tool
when you are tired or under influence of drugs.
• REMOVE ADJUSTING
WRENCHES. Form habit of checking to see that
keys and adjusting wrenches are removed from
tool before turning it on.
• AVOID ACCIDENTAL STARTING. Don't

carry plugged in tool with finger on switch. Be
sure the switch is OFF before being plugged in.
• DON'T OVERREACH. Keep proper foot-
ing and balance at all times.
• BEFORE CONNECTING THE TOOL to a
power supply (receptacle, outlet, etc.) be sure
the voltage supplied is the same as that speci-
fied on the tool's nameplate. A power supply
with voltage greater than that specified for the
tool can result in serious injury to the user - as
well as damage to the tool. If in doubt, DO NOT
PLUG IN THE TOOL. Using a power supply
with voltage less than the nameplate rating is
harmful to the motor.
"Volts AC" designated tools are for Alternating
Current 50-60 Hz only. "Volts DC" designated
tools are for Direct Current. Do not use AC
designated tools with DC power supply. Do not
use electronic speed controlled tools with DC
power supply.
• DON'T FORCE TOOL. It will do the job
better and safer at the rate for which it was
designed.
• USE RIGHT TOOL. Don't force small tool
or attachment to do the job of a heavy-duty tool.
Don't use tool for purpose not intended - for
example; don't use a circular saw for cutting
tree limbs or logs.
• SECURE WORK. Use clamps or a vise to
hold work. It's safer than using your hand and
it frees both hands to operate the tool.
• DON'T ABUSE CORD. Never carry tool by
cord or yank it to disconnect from receptacle.
Keep cord from heat, oil, and sharp edges.
Always keep cord away from the spinning
blade, bits or any other moving part while the
tool is in use.
• OUTDOOR USE EXTENSION CORDS.
When tool is used outdoors, use only extension
cords suitable for use outdoors and marked with
suffix W-A (for UL), or W (for CSA). Refer to
section "Extension Cords", for proper cord use.
• DISCONNECT TOOLS. When not in use,
before servicing, or when changing blades,
bits, cutters, etc.
• STORE IDLE TOOLS. When not in use,
KEYS AND tools should be stored in dry, high or locked up
place - out of the reach of children.
• DO NOT ALTER OR MISUSE TOOL.
These tools are precision built. Any alterations
or modifications not specified is misuse and
