when performing an operation where the
cutting tool may contact hidden wiring or
its own cord. Contact with a "live" wire will
make exposed metal parts of the tool "live"
and shock the operator. If cutting into existing
walls or other blind areas where electrical
wiring may exist is unavoidable, disconnect
all fuses or circuit breakers feeding this
worksite.
