General Power Tool Safety Warnings

WARNING! Read all safety warnings and all instructions.

Failure to follow the warnings

and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.

SAVE ALL WARNINGS AND INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE

REFERENCE

The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-

operated (cordless) power tool.

1) WORK AREA SAFETY

a)

Keep work area clean and well lit.

Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.

b)

Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of

flammable liquids, gases or dust.

Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or

fumes.

c)

Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool.

Distractions can cause

you to lose control.

2) ELECTRICAL SAFETY

a)

Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use

any adapter plugs with 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 unplugging the

power tool. Keep cord away 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.

f)

If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a ground fault circuit

interrupter (GFCI) protected supply.

Use of a GFCI reduces the risk of electric shock.

3) PERSONAL SAFETY

a)

Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power

tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs,

alcohol or medication.

A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in

serious personal injury.

b)

Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection.

Protective equipment

such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate

conditions will reduce personal injuries.

c)

Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off position before

connecting to power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool.

Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or energizing power tools that have the

switch on invites accidents.

d)

Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on.

A wrench or a

key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.

e)

Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.

This enables better

control of the power tool in unexpected situations.

f)

Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves

away from moving parts.

Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught in moving parts.

g)

If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities,

ensure these are connected and properly used.

Use of dust collection can reduce dust-

related hazards.

4) POWER TOOL USE AND CARE

a)

Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application.

The correct

power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.

b)

Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off.

Any power tool that

cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.

c)

Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery pack from the power

tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools.

Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.

d)

Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar

with the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool.

Power tools are

dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

e)

Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts

and any other condition that may affect the power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the

power tool repaired before use.

Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.

f)

Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.

Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting

edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.

g)

Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits, etc. in accordance with these

instructions, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed.

Use of the power tool for operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous

situation.

5) SERVICE

a)

Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical

replacement parts.

This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.

Additional Safety Instructions for Sanders

•

Accessories must be rated for at least the speed recom mended on the tool warning

label.

Wheels and other accessories running over rated speed can fly apart and cause injury.

Accessory ratings must be above listed minimum wheel speed as shown on tool nameplate.

•

Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation where the

cutting tool may contact hidden wiring or its own cord.

Contact with a “live” wire will make

exposed metal parts of the tool “live” and shock the operator.

•

Always wear eye protection and a respirator when sanding.

•

Sanding of lead-based paint is not recommended.

See Precautions To Take When Sanding

Paint for additional information before sanding paint.

•

Do not operate the unit without the dust collection bag.

•

Clean your tool out periodically.

•

Empty dust bag frequently, especially when sanding resin coated surfaces such as

polyurethane, varnish, shellac, etc.

Dispose of coated dust particles according to the finish

manufacturer’s guidelines, or place in a metal can with a tight-fitting metal lid. Remove coated

dust particles from the premises daily. The accumulation of fine sanding dust particles may self

ignite and cause fire.

•

Air vents often cover moving parts and should be avoided.

Loose clothes, jewelry or long

hair can be caught in moving parts.

•

An extension cord must have adequate wire size (AWG or American Wire Gauge) for

safety.

The smaller the gauge number of the wire, the greater the capacity of the cable, that is

16 gauge has more capacity than 18 gauge. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage

resulting in loss of power and overheating. When using more than one extension to make up the

total length, be sure each individual extension contains at least the minimum wire size. The following

table shows the correct size to use depending on cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If in

doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.

Not Recommended

WARNING: ALWAYS

use safety glasses. Everyday eyeglasses are NOT safety glasses. Also use

face or dust mask if cutting operation is dusty. ALWAYS WEAR CERTIFIED SAFETY EQUIPMENT:

• ANSI Z87.1 eye protection (CAN/CSA Z94.3),
• ANSI S12.6 (S3.19) hearing protection,
• NIOSH/OSHA/MSHA respiratory protection.

WARNING:

Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other

construction activities contains chemicals known to the State of California 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.

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.
•

Avoid prolonged contact with dust from power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and

other construction activities. Wear protective clothing and wash exposed areas with

soap and water.

Allowing dust to get into your mouth, eyes, or lay on the skin may promote

absorption of harmful chemicals.

WARNING:

Use of this tool can generate and/or disperse dust, which may cause serious and

permanent respiratory or other injury. Always use NIOSH/OSHA approved respiratory protection

appropriate for the dust exposure. Direct particles away from face and body.

WARNING: Always wear proper personal hearing protection that conforms to ANSI

S12.6 (S3.19) during use.

Under some conditions and duration of use, noise from this product

may contribute to hearing loss.
