ELECTRICAL SAFETY /_ WARNING: Do not permit fingers to touch the terminals of plug when J installing or removing the plug from the outlet. J 2. Double insulation [] eliminates the need for the three-wire grounded power cord and grounded power supply system. Applicable only to Class II (double-insulated) tools. This tool is a double insulated tool. I I /p_recWauAtRioNnsINGw:henDoopuebrlaetiningsutlhaitsiotnooDl.OES NOT take the place of normal safety I 3. BEFORE plugging in the tool, BE SURE that the outlet voltage supplied is within the voltage marked on the tool's data plate. DO NOT use "AO only" rated tools with a DC power supply. 4. 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. 5. DO NOT expose power tools to rain or wet conditions or use power tools in wet or damp locations. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock. 6. INSPECT tool cords for damage. Have damaged tool cords repaired at a Sears Service Center. BE SURE to stay constantly aware of the cord location and keep it well away from moving parts. 7. DO NOT abuse the cord. NEVER use the cord to carry the tool by or to pull the plug from the outlet. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Replace damaged cords immediately. Damaged cords increase the riskof electric shock. EXTENSION CORDS Use a proper extension cord. ONLY use cords listed by Underwriters Laboratories (UL). Other extension cords can cause a drop in line voltage, resulting in a loss of power and overheating of tool. For this tool an AWG (American Wire Gauge) size of a least 14-gauge is recommended for an extension cord of 25-ft. or less in length. Use 12-gauge for an extension cord of 50-ft. Extension cords 100-ft. or longer are not recommended. Remember, a smaller wire gauge size has greater capacity than a larger number (14-gauge wire has more capacity than 16-gauge wire; 12-gauge wire has more capacity than 14-gauge). When in doubt use the smaller number. Wl_en operating a power tool outdoors, use an outdoor extension cord marked "W-A" or "W". These cords are rated for outdoor use and reduce the risk of electric shock. /_, CAUTION: Keep the extension cord clear of the working area. Position the cord so that it will not get caught on lumber, tools or other obstructions while you are working with a power tool. /_ WARNING: Check extension cords before each use. If damaged replace immediately. Never use tool with a damaged cord since touching the damaged area could cause electrical shock, resulting in serious injury. 6

3.
BEFORE
plugging in the
tool, BE SURE
that the
outlet
voltage supplied
is within
the
voltage marked on the tool's
data
plate. DO NOT use
"AO
only" rated tools with
a DC
power
supply.
4. 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.
5. DO NOT expose power tools to rain or wet conditions
or use power tools in wet
or damp locations.
Water
entering
a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
6. INSPECT tool cords
for
damage.
Have damaged
tool
cords
repaired at a Sears
Service Center. BE SURE to stay constantly aware
of
the cord location and keep it well
away
from
moving parts.
7. DO NOT abuse the cord. NEVER use the cord to carry the tool by or to pull the
plug
from
the outlet. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts.
Replace damaged cords immediately. Damaged cords increase the riskof
electric
shock.
EXTENSION
CORDS
Use a proper extension
cord. ONLY use
cords listed by
Underwriters Laboratories
(UL).
Other
extension
cords can cause a
drop
in line voltage, resulting in a loss of power and
overheating of tool. For this tool an
AWG
(American Wire Gauge) size
of
a least 14-gauge
is recommended
for
an extension cord of 25-ft.
or less in length. Use 12-gauge
for
an
extension cord of 50-ft.
Extension cords 100-ft. or longer
are
not recommended.
Remember, a smaller wire gauge size has greater capacity
than a larger number
(14-gauge
wire has more capacity than 16-gauge wire; 12-gauge wire has more capacity
than 14-gauge).
When in doubt use the
smaller
number. Wl_en operating a power tool
outdoors, use an outdoor
extension
cord marked
"W-A"
or
"W".
These cords are rated
for
outdoor use and reduce the risk of electric shock.
/_,
CAUTION:
Keep the extension
cord clear of the working area.
Position the cord so that it will not get caught on lumber, tools or other
obstructions
while you
are
working with a power tool.

WARNING:
Check extension
cords before each use. If damaged replace
immediately. Never use tool with a damaged cord since touching the damaged
area could cause electrical
shock, resulting in serious injury.
