POWER TOOL SAFETY

GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

BEFORE USING THIS POWER TOOL
Safety is a combination of common 

sense, staying alert and knowing how 

to use your power tool.

  To avoid mistakes that could 

cause serious injury, do not plug 

the tool in until you have read 

and understood the following.

  Read all instructions before 

operating product. Failure to 

follow all instructions listed 

below may result in electric 

shock, fire and/or serious injury.

1. 

READ and become familiar 

with the entire Operator’s 

Manual. 

LEARN the tool’s 

application, limitations and possible 

hazards.

2. 

KEEP GUARDS IN PLACE and in 

working order.

3. 

REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS 

AND WRENCHES. Form the habit 

of checking to see that keys and 

adjusting wrenches are removed 

from the tool before turning ON.

4. 

KEEP WORK AREA CLEAN

Cluttered areas and benches 

  invite accidents.

5. 

DO NOT USE IN DANGEROUS 

ENVIRONMENTS. Do not use 

power tools in damp locations, or 

expose them to rain or snow. Keep 

work area well lit.

6. 

KEEP CHILDREN AWAY. All 

visitors and bystanders should be 

kept a safe distance from work area.

7. 

MAKE WORKSHOP CHILD PROOF 

with padlocks, master switches or by 

removing starter keys.

8. 

DO NOT FORCE THE TOOL. It will 

do the job better and safer at the 

rate for which it was designed.

9. 

USE THE RIGHT TOOL. Do not 

force the tool or an attachment to do 

a job for which it was not designed. 

10. 

USE PROPER EXTENSION 

CORDS. Make sure your extension 

cord is in good condition. When 

using an extension cord, be sure to 

use the one heavy enough to carry 

the current that the product will 

draw. An undersized cord will result 

in a drop in line voltage and in loss 

of power which will cause the tool 

overheat. The table on page 13

  shows the proper wire gauge size 

usage to each extension cord length 

and ampere rating. If in doubt, use 

the next heavier gauge. The smaller 

the gauge number, the heavier 

  the cord.
