GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING! Read and understand all instructions.
Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result
in electric shock, fire and/or serious personal injury.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

WORK AREA

• Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered benches and
dark areas invite accidents.
• 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.
• Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away while operating
a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.

ELECTRICAL SAFETY

• Grounded tools must be plugged into an outlet properly
installed and grounded in accordance with all codes and
ordinances. Never remove the grounding prong or modify
the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs. Check
with a qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether
the outlet is properly grounded. If the tools should electrically
malfunction or break down, grounding provides a low resistance
path to carry electricity away from the user. Applicable only to
Class I (grounded) tools.
• Double insulated tools are equipped with a polarized plug
(one blade is wider than the other.) This plug will fit in a
polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully
in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact
a qualified electrician to install a polarized outlet. Do not
change the plug in any way. Double insulation

power supply system. Applicable only to Class II (double
insulated) tools. The DW367, DW368 and DW369 are double
insulated tools.
• Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces such as pipes,
radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk
of electric shock if your body is grounded.
• Don't expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water
entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
• Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord to carry the
tools or pull the plug from an outlet. Keep cord away from
