SAFETYOPERATIONMAINTENANCE SETUP
Electrical Safety
1. Power tool plugs must match
the outlet. Never modify the plug
in any way. Do not use any adapter
plugs with grounded power tools.
Unmodified plugs and matching outlets
will reduce risk of electric shock.
2. 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.
3. Do not expose power tools to rain or
wet conditions. Water entering a power
tool will increase the risk of electric 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)
protected 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 dust mask, non-
skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing
protection used for appropriate conditions
will reduce personal injuries.
3. Prevent unintentional starting.
Ensure the Switch is in the off-position
before connecting to power source,
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. Do not overreach. Keep proper
footing and balance at all times. This
enables better control of the power
tool in unexpected situations.
5. Dress properly. Do not wear loose
clothing or jewelry. Keep your hair,
clothing and gloves away from moving
parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or long
hair can be caught in moving parts.
6. If devices are provided for the connection
of dust extraction and collection
facilities, ensure these are connected
and properly used. Use of dust collection
can reduce dust‑related hazards.
7. Only use safety equipment
that has been approved by an
appropriate standards agency.
Unapproved safety equipment may
not provide adequate protection.
Eye protection must be ANSI-approved
and breathing protection must be
NIOSH-approved for the specific
hazards in the work area.
