WORK AREA
*
Keep your work area clean and well fit. Cluttered benches and dark areas invite accidents.
*
Do not operate power tools in explosive
atmospheres,
such as in the presence
of
flammable liquids, gases, or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or
fumes.
*
Keep bystanders,
children, and visitors away while operating
a power tool Distractions
can cause you to lose control.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
,
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,
ff the tools
should electrically malfunction or break down, grounding provides a low resistance path to
carry electricity away from the user. This tool uses grounded construction (3 prong plug) to
provide a means to transfer electrical energy safely away from the user in the event the tool
electrically malfunctions, breaks down, or the tool case becomes five. Damage to, or loss of,
one of the 3 plug blades; damage to the plug or cord, or failure to have the tool plugged into a
verified and continuously grounded electrical system, may result in electric shock, serious
inju04 or death. To avoid these risks of inju04 the tool must, at all times, be maintained and in
proper working order (cord, plug blades) and plugged into a continuously grounded electrical
system. (See also "Cleaning" in the Maintenance
section.) Applicable
only to Class I
(grounded)
tools.
*
Double insulated tools are equipped with a polarized
plug (one blade is wider than the
other.) This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. ff the plug does not fit fully in
the outlet, reverse the plug. ff 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 system. Applicable
only to Class II (double insulated) tools.
* 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.
*
Don't expose power tools to rain or wet conditions.
Water entering a power tool will
increase the risk of electric shock.
*
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, sharp edges or moving parts. Replace damaged
cords immediately.
Damaged 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. When using
an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will
draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and
overheating. The following table shows the correct size to use depending on cord length and
nameplate ampere rating, ff in doubt, use the next heavier gage. The smafler the gage
number, the heavier the cord.

particles often accumulate on interior surfaces and could create an electric shock hazard.
*
Do not operate this tool for long periods of time. Vibration caused by tool action may be
harmful to your hands and arms. Use gloves to provide extra cushion and limit exposure by
taking frequent rest periods.
WARNING: Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other
construction
activities contains chemicals
known to cause cancer, birth defects or other
reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:
lead from lead-based paints,
crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, and
arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber (CCA).
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To
reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work with
approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed to filter out
microscopic particles.
