2. DO NOT operate power tools In explosive atmospheres, such as In the
pm._e.nce of flammable liquids, gases, or dust. Power toolscreate sparks
wnucnmay ignitethe oustor Rimes.
3. ALWAYS keep bystanders, children and visitors away while operating a
power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
1. Double Insulated tools ere equipped with e polarized 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 into the outlet, reverse the plug. If It still
does not tit, contact a qualified electrician to Install a potarlzed outleL
DO NOT change or alter the plug In any way.
2. Double insulation [] eliminates the need for the three wire grounded power
cord and grounded power supply system. Applicable only to Class II
(double insulated) tools.
3. Before plugging in the tool BE SURE that the outlet voltage supplied is
within the voltage marked on the tool's data plate. DO NOT use =AC only"
rated tools with a DC power supply.
4. ALWAYS avoid body contact with grounded surfaces, such as pipes,
radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased dsk of electric
shock if your body is grounded.
5. If operating the power tool In damp locations Is unavoidable, ALWAYS
use a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter to supply power to your tool.
ALWAYS wear electrician's rubber gloves and footwear In damp
conditions.
6. DO NOT expose power tools to rein or wet condlUons. Water entering a
power tool will increase the dsk of electric shock.
7. DO NOT abuse the cord. NEVER use the cord to carry the tools or pull
the p.lug from the outlet. Keep cord away from heat, o11,sharp edges or
movnng parts. Replace damaged cords Immediately. Damaged cords
increase the risk of electric shock.
8. When operating a power tool outside, ALWAYS use an outdoor extension
cord marked "W-A" or _ These cords are rated for outdoor use and reduce
the risk of electric shock.
NOTE: The extension cord must have adequate wire size AWG
(American Wire Gauge) for safe, efficient use. Smaller gauge wires have
greater capacity (16 gauge wire has more capacity than 18 gauge wire).
