General Safety Information
WARNING
Read and understand all instructions. Failure to fol-
low all instructions listed below may result in
carbon monoxide poisoning and/or serious per-
sonal injury.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS!
Work Area Safety
1. Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered
benches and dark areas invite accidents.
2. Do not operate power tools in explosive atmo-
spheres, such as in the presence of flammable
liquids, gases, or dust. Power tools create sparks
which may ignite the dust or fumes.
3. Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away
while operating a power tool. Distractions can
cause you to lose control.
4. Keep the engine at least 1 meter (3') away from
buildings and other equipment during opera-
tion. Do not place flammable objects close to
engine. Procedures should be followed to prevent
fire hazards and to provide adequate ventilation.
Personal Safety
1. Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use
common sense when operating a power tool. Do
not use tool while tired or under the influence of
drugs, alcohol, or medications. A moment of inat-
tention while operating power tools may result in
serious personal injury.
2. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or
jewelry. Contain long hair. Keep your hair, cloth-
ing, and gloves away from moving parts. Loose
clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be caught in mov-
ing parts.
3. Remove adjusting keys or switches before turning
the tool ON. A wrench or a key that is left attached to
a rotating part of the tool may result in personal injury.
4. Do not over-reach. Keep proper footing and bal-
ance at all times. Proper footing and balance enables
better control of the tool in unexpected situations.
5. Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protec-
tion. Dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or
hearing protection must be used for appropriate
conditions

Tool Use and Care
1. Do not force tool. Use the correct tool for your ap-
plication. The correct tool will do the job better and
safer at the rate for which it is designed.
2. Store idle tools out of the reach of children and
other untrained persons. Tools are dangerous in the
hands of untrained users.
3. Maintain tools 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.
4. Check for misalignment or binding of moving
parts, breakage of parts, and any other condition
that may affect the tool's operation. If damaged,
have the tool serviced before using. Many acci-
dents are caused by poorly maintained tools.
5. 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.
6. Disconnect the spark plug wire before making
any adjustments or repairing tool. Such preventa-
tive measures reduce the risk of starting the tool
accidentally.
7. Keep handles dry and clean; free from oil and
grease. Allows for better control of the tool.
Service
1. Tool service must be performed only by quali-
fied repair personnel. Service or maintenance
performed by unqualified repair personnel could result
in injury.
2. When servicing a tool, use only identical replace-
ment parts. Follow instructions in the Maintenance
Section of this manual. Use of unauthorized parts or
failure to follow maintenance instructions may create
a risk of electrical shock or injury.
3. Follow instructions for lubricating and changing
accessories. Accidents are caused by poorly main-
tained tools.
