with a qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is

properly grounded. If the tools should electrically malfunction or break down,

grounding provides a low resistance path to carry electricity away from the user.
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. 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 system.
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 ground-

ed.
Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool

will increase the risk of electric shock.
Do not abuse the Power Cord.

Never use the Power cord to carry the tools

or pull the Plug from an outlet. Keep the Power cord away from heat, oil,

sharp edges, or moving parts. Replace damaged Power cords immediate-

ly. Damaged Power Cords increase the risk of electric shock.
When operating a power tool outside, use an outdoor extension cord marked “W-

A” or “W”. These extension cords are rated for outdoor use, and reduce the risk

of electric shock.

PERSONAL SAfETy

Stay alert.

Watch what you are doing, and use common sense when operat-

ing a power tool. Do not use a power tool while tired or under the influence

of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment of inattention while operating

power tools may result in serious personal injury.
Dress properly.

Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Contain long hair.

Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves away from moving parts. Loose

clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
Avoid accidental starting.

be sure the Power Switch is off before plugging in.

Carrying power tools with your finger on the Power Switch, or plugging in power

tools with the Power Switch on, invites accidents.
Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before turning the power tool on. A wrench

or a key that is left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in per-

sonal injury.
Do not overreach.

Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Proper foot-

ing and balance enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
