GENERAL SAFETY RULES

WARNING! 

Read all safety warnings and instructions. Failure to follow all instructions may result 

in electric shock, fire and serious injury. The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your mains-
operated (corded) power tool. 

Save all warnings and instructions for future reference. 

WORK AREA SAFETY

1. Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.

2. 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.

3. Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.

ELECTRICAL SAFETY

1. 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.

2. Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There 
is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.

3. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of elec-
tric shock.

4. Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away 
from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.

5. When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable 
for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.

6. If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) pro-
tected supply. Use of a GFCI reduces 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 you are 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. Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as a dust mask, 
non-skid safety shoes, and hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce the risk of personal 
injury.

3. Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before connecting to power source and/
or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or energizing 
power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.

4. Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a 
rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.
