GENERAL SAFETY RULES

• KEEP THE WORK AREA CLEAN. Cluttered areas and benches invite injuries.
• CONSIDER THE WORK AREA ENVIRONMENT. Don’t expose power tools to rain. Don’t use power tools in damp or wet locations. Keep the work area well-lit. Do not use tools in the presence of flammable liquids, dust, or gases.
• GUARD AGAINST ELECTRIC SHOCK. Prevent body contact with grounded surfaces. For example; pipes, radiators, ranges, and refrigerator enclosures.
• KEEP CHILDREN AWAY. Do not let visitors contact the tool or extension cord. All visitors should be kept away from the work area.
• STORE IDLE TOOLS. When not in use, tools should be stored in dry, and high or locked-up places — out of reach of children.
• DON’T FORCE TOOL. It will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was intended.
• USE RIGHT TOOL. Don’t force small tools or attachments to do the job of a heavy-duty tool. Don’t use tools for purposes not intended.
• DRESS PROPERLY. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry.
• They can be caught in moving parts. Rubber gloves and nonskid footwear are recommended when working outdoors. Wear a protective hair covering to contain long hair.
• USE SAFETY GLASSES. Also, use a face or dust mask if the operation is dusty.
• DON’T ABUSE CORD. Never carry the tool by cord or yank it to disconnect from the receptacle. Keep cord from heat, oil, and sharp edges.
• SECURE WORK. Use clamps or a vise to hold the work. It’s safer than using your hand and it frees both hands to operate the tool.
• DON’T OVERREACH. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
• MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE. Keep tools sharp and clean for better and safer performance. Follow instructions for lubricating and changing accessories.
• Inspect tool cords periodically and if damaged, have them repaired by an authorized service facility.
• Inspect extension cords periodically and replace them if damaged. Keep handles dry, clean, and free from oil and grease.
• DISCONNECT OR LOCK OFF TOOLS when not in use, before servicing, and when changing accessories, such as blades, bits, and cutters.
• REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS AND WRENCHES. Form a habit of checking to see that keys and adjusting wrenches are removed from the tool before turning it on.
• AVOID UNINTENTIONAL STARTING. Don’t carry a tool with your finger on the switch. Be sure the switch is off when plugging in.
• EXTENSION CORDS. Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current product. 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. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.
• OUTDOOR USE EXTENSION CORDS. When a tool is used outdoors, use only extension cords intended for use outdoors and so marked.
• STAY ALERT. Watch what you are doing. Use common sense. Do not operate the tool when you are tired.
• CHECK DAMAGED PARTS. Before further use of the tool, a guard or other part 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, binding 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 elsewhere in this instruction manual. Have defective switches replaced by the authorized service center. Do not use a tool if the switch does not turn it on and off.
• DO NOT OPERATE portable electric tools near flammable liquids or in gaseous or explosive atmospheres. Motors in these tools normally spark, and the sparks might ignite fumes.
