GENERAL SAFETY RULES
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
Double insulated tools are equipped with a polarized plug
FIG. 1
(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, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install a polarized outlet. Do not change
the plug in any way. Double insulation eliminates the need for
the three-wire, grounded power cord and grounded power supply
120V ~ 60Hz
system. See FIG. 1.
FOR SAFE OPERATION
Consider the work area environment. Keep your area clean and well lit. Cluttered
benches and dark areas invite accidents. Do not expose power tools to rain. Do not use
power tools in damp or wet locations. Do not use power tools where there is risk of fire or
explosion.
Guard against electric shock. Avoid contact with grounded surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges, and refrigerators.
Keep children away. Do not let visitors touch the tool or extension cord. All visitors should
be kept away from work area.
Store idle tools. When not in use, tools should be stored in a high or locked up place that is
dry and out of the reach of children.
Do not force the tool. It will do the job better and safer if used in a manner for which it was
intended.
Use the right tool. Do not force small tools or attachments to do the job of a heavy duty
tool. Do not use tools for purposes not intended; for example, do not use circular saws to
cut tree limbs or logs.
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry as they can be caught in moving
parts. Rubber gloves and nonskid footwear are recommended when working outdoors.
Wear a hair net to contain long hair.
Use safety glasses. Also use a face or dust mask if the cutting operation is dusty.
Connect dust extraction equipment. If devices are provided for the connection of dust
extraction and collection, take measures to ensure these are connected and properly used.
Do not abuse the cord. Never carry the tool by the cord or yank the cord to disconnect it
from the socket. Keep the cord away from heat, oil and sharp edges.
Secure your work. Use clamps or a vice to hold the work. It is safer than using your hand
and it frees both hands to operate the tool.
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.

GENERAL SAFETY RULES
Maintain tool with care. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean for better and safer performance. Follow instructions for lubrication and changing accessories. Inspect tool cord
periodically, and, if damaged, have it repaired by an authorized service facility. Inspect
extension cords periodically, and replace if damaged. Keep handles dry, clean and free from
oil and grease.
Disconnect tools. Always unplug the tool when it is not in use, before servicing, and when
changing accessories, such as blades, bits and cutters.
Remove adjusting keys and wrenches. Form the habit of checking to see that keys and
adjusting wrenches are removed from the tool before turning it on.
Avoid unintentional starting. Do not carry a plugged-in tool with a finger on the switch.
Make sure the switch is off when plugging tool in.
Use outdoor extension cords. When tool is used outdoors, use only extension cords
intended for outdoor use.
Stay alert. Watch what you are doing. Use common sense. Do not operate the tool when
you are tired.
Replace damaged cords immediately. Use of damaged cords can cause shock, burns or
electrocution.
Check damaged parts. Before further use of the tool, a guard or any other part of the tool
that is damaged should be carefully checked to determine that it will operate properly and
perform its intended function. Check for alignment of moving parts, free running of moving
parts, breakage of parts, mounting and any other conditions that may affect its operation. A
guard or other part that is damaged should be properly repaired or replaced by an authorized service center unless otherwise indicated in this instruction manual. Have defective
switches replaced by an authorized service facility. Do not use the tool if the switch does
not turn it on and off.
WARNING The use of any accessory or attachment, other than those recom-
mended in this instruction manual, may present a risk of personal injury.
Have your tool repaired by a qualified person. This electric tool has been designed in accordance with the relevant safety standards. Repairs should only be carried out by a qualified person using original replacement parts. Failure to do so not only will void the warranty,
but could result in injury to the user or other participants in the work area.
