with grounded surfaces. For example; pipes, radiators, ranges,
and refrigerator enclosures.
• KEEP CHILDREN AWAY. Do not let visitors contact tool or
extension cord. All visitors should be kept away from work area.

• DISCONNECT OR LOCK OFF TOOLS when not in use, before
servicing, and when changing accessories, such as blades, bits,
cutters.
• 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.
• EXTENSION CORDS. Make sure your extension cord is in good
condition. When using an extension cord, be sure to use one
heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. An
undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss
of power and overheating. The following table shows the correct
size to use depending on cord length and nameplate ampere
rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gage. The smaller the
gage number, the heavier the cord.

• OUTDOOR USE EXTENSION CORDS. When operating a power
tool outside, use an outdoor extension cord marked "W-A" or "W."
These cords are rated for outdoor use and reduce the risk of
electric shock.
• STAY ALERT. Watch what you are doing. Use common sense. Do
not operate tool when you are tired.
• CHECK DAMAGED PARTS. Before further use of the tool, a
guard or other part that is damaged should be carefully checked
