General power tool safety warnings

WARNING: Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and
instructions may result in electric shock, fire, and/or other serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference. The term "power tool" in the warn-
ings refers 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 explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of
flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create
c. sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
d. Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can
cause you to lose control.
2) Electrical Safety
a. Power tools plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not
use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodifi ed 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 grounded.
c. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will
increase the risk of electric shock.
3) Personal Safety
a. Stay alert, watch what you are 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.
b. Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equip-
ment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used
for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
c. Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before connect-
ing to power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power
tools with your fi nger on the switch or energizing power tools that have the switch on
invites accidents. d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool
on. A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in
personal injury.
d. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better
control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
