• Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away while operating a power tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose control.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
WARNING!
Always check to ensure the power supply corresponds to the voltage on the
rating plate.
• Grounded tools must be plugged 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.
• Avoid body contact with grounded 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 or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will
increase the risk of electric shock.
• Do not abuse the power cord. 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. Damaged power cords
increase the risk of electric shock.
• When operating a power tool outside, use an outdoor extension cord marked “W-A”
or “W.” These cords are rated for outdoor use and reduce the risk of electric shock.
• Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will
increase the risk of electric shock.
• Do not let your fingers touch the terminals of plug when installing or removing from
the outlet.
• Ground fault circuit interrupters. If work area is not equipped with a permanently
installed Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter outlet (GFCI), use a plug-in GFCI between power
tool or extension cord and power receptacle.
PERSONAL SAFETY
• 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.
• Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing, dangling objects, or jewelry. Keep your hair,
clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be
caught in moving parts. Air vents often cover moving parts and should be avoided.
• Avoid accidental starting. 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 wrenches before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a
key that is left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.
• Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Proper footing and
balance enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
• Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Nonskid safety shoes, hard hat, or
hearing protection must be used for appropriate conditions. Always wear ANSI-approved
safety impact goggles and thick rubber boots during use and maintenance.
TOOL USE AND CARE
• Use clamps (not included) or other practical ways to secure and support a smaller
workpiece to a stable platform.
Holding the work by hand or against your body is unsta-
ble and may lead to loss of control.
• Do not force the tool. Use the correct tool for your application. The correct tool will do
the job better and safer at the rate for which it is designed.
• Do not use the power tool if the power switch does not turn it on or off. Any tool that
cannot be controlled with the power switch is dangerous and must be replaced.
• Disconnect the power cord plug from the power source before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing the tool.
Such preventive safety measures
reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally.
• Store idle tools out of reach of children and other untrained persons. Tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
• Maintain tools with care. Keep tools clean. Properly maintained tools are easier to control. Do not use a damaged tool. Tag damaged tools “Do not use” until repaired.
• Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, and any
other condition that may affect the tool’s operation. If damaged, have the tool serviced before using. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained tools.
• Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for your model.
Accessories that may be suitable for one tool may become hazardous when used on
another tool.
SERVICE
• Tool service must be performed only by qualified repair personnel.
Service or mainte-
nance performed by unqualified personnel could result in a risk of injury.
• When servicing a tool, use only identical replacement parts. Follow instructions in
the “Maintenance” section of this manual. Use of unauthorized parts or failure to follow
maintenance instructions may create a risk of electric shockor injury.
