• Keep bystandem, children, and viaitom away

while operating a power tool. Distractionscan

causeyou to lose control.

Electrical Safety

• Double insulated tools are equipped with a

poladzad plug (one blade is wider than the other). This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only

one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, mvaree the plug. If it still does not fit,

conlaet a qualified electrician to install • polar-

izad outlet. Do not change the plug in any way. Doubleinsulation[] eliminatesthe need forthe

three-wire groundedpowercord and grounded

powersupplysystem.

tom. Them isan increased riskof electricshockif your body isgrounded.

• Don't expose powartools to rein or wet condi- tions, Water enteringa powertoolwillincreasethe

riskofelectricshock.

• Do not abuse the cord, Never use the cord to carry the tools or pull the plug from an outlet,

Keep cord away from heat, oil, shal_ edges, or moving parts. Replace damaged cords immedi-

ately. Damaged cords increase the risk of electric

shock.

When operating a power tool outside, usa an

outdoor extension cord marked "W-A" or "W," These cordsam ratedfor outdooruseand reduce

the riskof electricshock.
