A WARNING: Read and understand all instruc-tions. Failure to follow all instructions listed below,may result in electric shock, fire and/or seriouspersonal injury.SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONSWORK AREA• Keep your work area clean and well lit. Clutteredbenches and dark areas invite accidents.• Do not operate power tools in explosive atmo-spheres, such as in the presence of flammable liq-uids, gases, or dust. Power tools create sparks whichmay ignite the dust or fumes.• Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away whileoperating a power tool. Distractions can cause you tolose control.ELECTRICAL SAFETY• Double insulated tools are equipped with a polar-ized plug (one blade is wider than the other). Thisplug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If theplug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug.If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electricianto install a polarized outlet. Do not change the plugin any way. Double insulation [] eliminates the needfor the three-wire grounded power cord and groundedpower supply system.• Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces suchas pipes, radiators, ranges, and refrigerators. Thereis an increased risk of electric shock if your body isgrounded.• Don't expose power tools to rain or wet conditions.Water entering a power tool will increase the risk ofelectric shock.• Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord to carrythe tools or pull the plug from an outlet. Keep cordaway from heat, oil, sharp edges, or moving parts.Replace damaged cords immediately. Damagedcords increase the risk of electric shock.• When operating a power tool outside, use an outdoorextension cord marked "W-A" or "W". These cordsare rated for outdoor use and reduce the risk of electricshock.PERSONAL SAFETY• Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use com-mon sense when operating a power tool. Do notuse tool while tired or under the influence of drugs,alcohol, or medication. A moment of inattention whileoperating power tools may result in serious personalinjury.• Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing orjewelry. 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. Be sure switch is offbefore plugging in. Carrying tools with your finger onthe switch or plugging in tools that have the switch oninvites accidents.• Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before turningthe tool on. A wrench or a key that is left attached to arotating part of the tool may result in personal injury.• Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balanceat all times. Proper footing and balance enables bettercontrol of the tool in unexpected situations.• Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection.Dust mask, nonskid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearingprotection must be used for appropriate conditions.• Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Contain longhair. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be drawninto air vents.• Do not use on a ladder or unstable support. Stablefooting on a solid surface enables better control of thetool in unexpected situations.TOOL USE AND CARE• Use clamps or other practical way to secure andsupport the workpiece to a stable platform. Holdingthe work by hand or against your body is unstable andmay lead to loss of control.• Do not force tool. Use the correct tool for your ap-plication. The correct tool will do the job better andsafer at the rate for which it is designed.• Do not use tool if switch does not turn it on or off.Any tool that cannot be controlled with the switch isdangerous and must be repaired.• Disconnect the plug from power source beforemaking any adjustments, changing accessories,or storing the tool. Such preventive safety measuresreduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally.• Store idle tools out of the reach of children andother untrained persons. Tools are dangerous in thehands of untrained users.• Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting tools sharpand clean. Properly maintained tools with sharp cut-ting edges are less likely to bind and are easier tocontrol.• Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts,breakage of parts, and any other condition thatmay affect the tool's operation. If damaged, havethe tool serviced before using. Many accidents arecaused by poorly maintained tools.• Use only accessories that are recommended by themanufacturer for your model. Accessories that maybe suitable for one tool, may become hazardous whenused on another tool.• Keep the tool and its handle dry, clean and freefrom oil and grease. Always use a clean cloth whencleaning. Never use brake fluids, gasoline, petroleum-based products, or any strong solvents to clean yourtool. Following this rule will reduce the risk of loss ofcontrol and deterioration of the enclosure plastic. |
