[. . . ] A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury. Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Safety equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or plugging in power tools that have the switch on invites accidents. [. . . ] Use of the power tool for operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation. Hold tools 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. it is also highly recommended that you wear a dust mask and thickly padded gloves. In cold weather or when the tool has not been used for a long time, let the tool warm up for a while by operating it under no load. Do not touch the bit or parts close to the bit immediately after operation; they may be extremely hot and could burn your skin. Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts.
