plugs with grounded power tools.
Unmodied plugs and matching out­lets will reduce risk of electric shock.
Avoid body contact with grounded b. 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 c. or wet conditions. Water entering
a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
Do not abuse the cord. Never use d. the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged
or entangled cords increase the risk
of electric shock.
When operating a power tool out-e. doors, use an extension cord suit­able for outdoor use. Use of a cord
suitable for outdoor use reduces the
risk of electric shock.
If operating a power tool in a damp f. location is unavoidable, use a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) protected supply. Use of
a GFCI reduces the risk of electric
shock.
Personal safety3.

or under the inuence of drugs,
alcohol or medication. A moment
of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
Safety equipment such as dust mask,
non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or
hearing protection used for appropri­ate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
Remove any adjusting key or c. wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left at-
tached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.

This enables better control of the
power tool in unexpected situations.
Only use safety equipment that e. has been approved by an appropri­ate standards agency. Unapproved
safety equipment may not provide adequate protection. Eye protection must be ANSI-approved and breath­ing protection must be NIOSH-ap­proved for the specic hazards in the work area.
