Safety warnings
3.1
General power tool safety warnings
WARNING! Read all safety warnings, in
structions, illustrations and specifica
tions provided with this power tool.
Failure to
follow all instructions listed below may result in
electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future
reference.
The term "power tool" in the warnings refers to
your mains-operated (corded) power tool or
battery-operated (cordless) power tool.
1 WORK AREA SAFETY
a.
Keep work area clean and well lit.
Clut
tered or dark areas invite accidents.
b.
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.
c.
Keep children and bystanders away while
operating a power tool.
Distractions can
cause you to lose control.
2 ELECTRICAL SAFETY
a.
Power tool plugs must match the outlet.
Never modify the plug in any way. Do not
use any adapter plugs with earthed
(grounded) power tools.
Unmodified plugs
and matching outlets will reduce risk of
electric shock.
b.
Avoid body contact with earthed or
grounded surfaces, such as pipes, radia
tors, ranges and refrigerators.
There is an
increased risk of electric shock if your body
is earthed or grounded.
c.
Do not expose power tools to rain or wet
conditions.
Water entering a power tool will
increase the risk of electric shock.
