Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, near flammable liquids, gases, or dust. Power tools create sparks, which may ignite such dust or fumes.
Keep guards in place and functioning properly. If a method of dust collection is available with the power tool, it should be used to reduce the risk of dust-related hazards.
In damp locations, only plug your tool into a GFCI. If the work area does not have a permanent GFCI on the outlet, use a plug-in GFCI. Wear rubber gloves and footwear.
