ELECTRICALSAFETY
[] Doubteinsulatedtoolsareequipped with a
poJadzed plug (one blade is wider than the
other). This plug will fit in a poJarized outlet onty
one way. if the ptug does not fit fully in the
outJet, reverse the pJug. If it still does not fit,
contact a qualified electrician to install a polar-
ized outtet. Do not change the plug in any way.
Double insulation _'_ eliminates the need for the
three-wire grounded power cord and grounded
power supply system.
[] 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.
[] Don't expose power tools to rain or wet condio
tions. Water entering a power tool will increase the
risk of electric shock.
[] Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord to carry
the tooJs or pull the ptug from an outlet. Keep cord
away from heat, oH, sharp edges, or moving parts.
Replace damaged cords immediately. Damaged
cords increase the risk of electric shock.
[] When operating a power tooJ outside, use an out-
door extension cord marked "W-A" or "W'. These
cords are rated for outdoor use and reduce the risk of
electric shock.

[] Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and
baJance at aH times. Proper footing and balance
enabbs better control of the tool in unexpected
situations. Do not use on a ladder or unstabb
supporL
[] Use safety equipment. AJways wear eye protec-
tion. Dust mask, nonskid safety shoes, hard hat, or

application. The correct tool will do the job better
and safer at the rate for which it is designed.
[] Do not use tool if switch does not turn it on or
off. Any tool that cannot be controlbd with the
switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
[] Disconnect the plug from power source before
making any adjustments, changing accesso-
ries, or storing the tool Such preventive safety
measures reduce the risk of starting the tool
accidentally.
[] Store idle tooJs out of the reach of children and
other untrained persons. Tools are dangerous in
the hands of untrained users.
[] Maintain tooJs with care. Keep cutting tools
sharp and clean. Properly maintained tools with
sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are
easier to control.
[] Check for misaJignment or binding of moving
parts, breakage of parts, and any other condio
tion that may affect the tooFs operation, if
damaged, have the tool serviced before using.
Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained
tools.
[] Use only accessories that are recommended by
the manufacturer for your model. Accessories
that may be suitable for one tool, may become
hazardous when used on another tool.
