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. Do not overreach. Keep proper
footing and balance at all times.
This enables better control of the
power tool in unexpected situations.
4. Dress properly. Do not wear loose
clothing or jewelry. Keep your hair,
clothing and gloves away from
hot parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or
long hair can be burned by hot parts.
5. 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.
