Safety
WARNING
Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations and
specifications provided with this machine.
Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in
electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
The term "machine" in all the warnings refers to your mains-operated
(corded) machine or battery-operated (cordless) machine.
I. Work area safety
1.
Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite
accidents.
2.
Do not operate machines in explosive atmospheres, such as in
the presence of flammable liquids, gases, or dust. Machines
create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
3.
Keep children and bystanders away while operating a machine.
Distractions can cause you to lose control.
II. Electrical safety
1.
Machine plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in
any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded)
machines. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of
electric shock.
2.
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.
3.
Do not expose machines to rain or wet conditions. Water
entering a machine will increase the risk of electric shock.
4.
Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling
or unplugging the machine. Keep cord away from heat, oil,
sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords
increase the risk of electric shock.
