ELECTRICAL SAFETY Grounded tools must be plugged 1. into an outlet properly installed and grounded in accordance with all codes and ordinances. Never remove the grounding prong or modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs. Check with a qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded. If the tools should electrically malfunction or break down, grounding provides a low resistance path to carry electricity away from the user. Double insulated tools are 2. equipped with a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). This plug will fit in a polarized out- let only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, con- tact a qualified electrician to install a polarized outlet. Do not change the plug in any way. Double insula- tion eliminates the need for the three wire grounded power cord and grounded power supply system. Avoid body contact with grounded 3. surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges, and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is grounded. Do not expose power tools to rain 4. or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock. Do not abuse the Power Cord. 5. Never use the Power Cord to carry the tools 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. Dam- aged Power Cords increase the risk of electric shock. When operating a power tool out- 6. side, use an outdoor extension cord marked “W-A” or “W”. These extension cords are rated for outdoor use, and reduce the risk of electric shock. PERSONAL SAFETY Stay alert. Watch what you are do- 1. ing, and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment of inatten- tion while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury. Dress properly. Do not wear loose 2. 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. Avoid accidental starting. 3. 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. Remove adjusting keys or wrench- 4. es before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key that is left at- tached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury. Do not overreach. Keep proper 5. footing and balance at all times. Proper footing and balance enables
