3. Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away while operating a power tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose control. Protect others in the work area from debris
such as chips and sparks. Provide barriers or shields as needed.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
1. 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.
2. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will
increase the risk of electric shock.
PERSONAL SAFETY
1. Stay alert. Watch what you are doing, and use common sense when operating 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.

2. 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.
3. Avoid accidental starting. Be sure the Trigger (34) is released before plugging in.
Carrying power tools with your finger on the Trigger, or plugging in power tools with the
Trigger depressed, invites accidents.
4. 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 personal injury.
5. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Proper footing and
balance enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
6. Use safety equipment. Always wear ANSI approved safety glasses underneath a full
face safety shield. Dust mask, nonskid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection
must be used for appropriate conditions.
7. Use clamps (not included) or other practical ways to secure and support the
workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the work by hand or against your body is
unstable and may lead to loss of control.
