WARNING! Read all
safety warnings and all
instructions. Failure to follow the
warnings and instructions 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 electric
(corded) power tool or battery-
operated (cordless) power tool.
1. Work area safety
a) Keep work area clean and
well lit. Cluttered 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 grounded
power tools. Unmodified plugs
and matching outlets will reduce
risk of electric shock.
b) 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.
c) Do not expose power tools
to rain or wet conditions. Water
entering a power tool will increase
the risk of electric shock.
d) 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.
e) 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.
f) If operating a power tool in a
damp location is unavoidable,
use a residual current device
(RCD) protected supply. Use
of an RCD reduces the risk of
electric shock.
3. Personal safety
a) 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
