Important Safety Warnings and Instructions
WARNING: When using electric tools, basic safety precautions should always be followed
to reduce risk of fire, electric shock, and personal injury, including the following.
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS
TO REDUCE RISK OF INJURY:
• Before any use, be sure everyone using this tool reads and understands all safety
instructions and other information contained in this manual.
• Save these instructions and review frequently prior to use and in instructing others.
GENERAL SAFETY WARNINGS AND INSTRUCTIONS FOR ALL TOOLS
• KEEP WORK AREA CLEAN. Cluttered areas and benches invite injuries.
• CONSIDER WORK AREA ENVIRONMENT. Don't expose power tools to rain. Don't use
power tools in damp or wet locations. Keep work area well lit. Do not use in presence of
flammable liquids or gases. Motors in these tools normally spark, and the sparks may ignite
the fumes.
• GUARD AGAINST ELECTRIC SHOCK. Prevent body contact with grounded surfaces. For
example; pipes, radiators, ranges, refrigerator enclosures. Use extreme caution when
drilling, driving, or cutting into walls, floors, ceilings or other areas or wherever live electrical
wires may be contacted, do not touch any metal parts of the tool. Hold the tools only by the
plastic handle to prevent electric shock.
• KEEP CHILDREN AWAY. Do not let children and visitors contact tool or extension cord. All
children and visitors should be kept away from work area.
• STORE IDLE TOOLS. When not in use, tools should be stored in dry, and high or locked-up
place–out of reach of children.
• DON'T FORCE TOOL. It will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was intended.
• USE RIGHT TOOL. Don't force small tool or attachment to do the job of a heavy-duty tool.
Don't use tool for purposes not intended.
• DRESS PROPERLY. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. They can be caught in moving
parts. Rubber gloves and non-skid footwear are recommended when working outdoors.
Wear protective hair covering to contain long hair.
• USE SAFETY GLASSES AND OTHER SAFETY EQUIPMENT. Use safety goggles or
safety glasses with side shields, complying with applicable safety standards and, when
needed, a face shield. Also use face or dust mask if cutting operation is dusty. This applies to
all persons in the work area. Also use a hard hat, hearing protection, gloves, safety shoes
and dust collection systems when specified or required.
• DON'T ABUSE CORD. Never carry tool by cord or yank it to disconnect from receptacle.
Keep cord from heat, oil, and sharp edges.
• SECURE WORK. Use clamps or a vise to hold work. It's safer than using your hand and it
frees both hands to operate tool.
• DON'T OVERREACH. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
• MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE. Keep tools sharp and clean for better and safer
performance. Follow instructions for lubricating and changing accessories. Inspect tool cords
periodically and if damaged, have repaired by authorized service facility. Inspect extension
cords periodically and replace if damaged. Keep handles dry, clean, and free from oil and
grease.
• DISCONNECT TOOLS. Unplug the tool when not in use, when moving tool from place to
place, before servicing, and when changing accessories (such as blades, bits, cutters) or
making adjustments.
• REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS AND WRENCHES. Form habit of checking to see that keys
and adjusting wrenches are removed from tool before turning it on.
• AVOID UNINTENTIONAL STARTING. Don't carry tool with finger on switch. Be sure switch
is off when plugging in.
• OUTDOOR USE EXTENSION CORDS. When tool is used outdoors, use only extension
cords intended for use outdoors and so marked.
• STAY ALERT. Watch what you are doing. Use common sense. Do not operate tool when you
are tired or otherwise impaired.
• CHECK DAMAGED PARTS. Before further use of the tool, a guard or other part that is
damaged should be carefully checked to determine that it will operate properly and perform
its intended function. Check for alignment of moving parts, binding of moving parts,
breakage of parts, mounting, and any other conditions that may affect its operation. A guard
or other part that is damaged should be properly repaired or replaced by an authorized
service center. Do not use tool if switch does not turn it on and off.

SAFETY WARNINGS AND INSTRUCTIONS: DOUBLE INSULATION
Double insulated tools are constructed throughout with two separate layers of electrical
insulation or a double thickness of insulation between you and the tool's electrical system.
Tools built with double insulation are not intended to be grounded. As a result, your tool is
equipped with a two prong plug which permits you to use extension cords without concern for
maintaining a ground connection.
Double insulation does not take the place of normal safety precautions when operating this
tool. The insulation system is for added protection against injury resulting from a possible
electrical insulation failure within the tool.
REPLACEMENT PARTS: When servicing use only identical replacement parts. Repair or
replace damaged cords.
SAFETY WARNINGS AND INSTRUCTIONS: POLARIZED PLUGS
Polarized plugs (one blade is wider than the other) are used on equipment to reduce the risk
of electric shock. When provided, this plug will fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If the
plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified
electrician to install the proper outlet. Do not change the plug in any way.
The label on your tool may include the following symbols.
V..............volts
A..............amperes
Hz............hertz
W ............watts
min ..........minutes
............alternating current
........direct current
n o ............no load speed
............Class II Construction

WARNING: Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other
construction activities contains chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects or other
reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:
• lead from lead-based paints,
• crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, and
• arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber. (CCA)
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To
reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work with
approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed to filter
out microscopic particles.
