Work area
2.1
a. Keep work area clean and well lit.
Cluttered and dark areas invite
accidents.
b. Do not operate power tools in explo-
sive atmospheres, such as in the pres-
ence of flammable liquids, gasses or
dust. Power tools create sparks which
may ignite the dust of fumes.
c. Keep children and bystanders away
while operating a power tool. Distrac-
tions can cause you to lose control.
Electrical safety
2.2
a. Power tool plugs must match the out-
let. Never modify the plug in any way.
Do not use any adapter plugs which
earthed (grounded) power tools.
Unmodified plugs and matching outlets
will reduce risk of electric shock.
b. Avoid body contact with earthed or
grounded surfaces such as pipes,
radiators, ranges and refrigerators.
There is an increased risk of electric
shock if your body is earthed or
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 unplug-

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.

residual circuit breaker device. The
use of a residual circuit breaker device
reduces the risk of electric shock.
