General Safety Rules For Battery
Operated Tools
Work Area Safety
• Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered benches and dark
areas invite accidents.
• Do not operate the laser tool in explosive atmospheres, such as in
the presence of flammable liquids, gases, or dust.
Personal Safety
• Stay alert. Watch what you are doing and use common sense
when operating a laser tool. Do not use tool while tired or
under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment
of inattention while operating laser tools may result in serious
personal injury.
• Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
Proper footing and balance enables better control of the tool in
unexpected situations.
• Use safety equipment. Dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard
hat, eye protection, or hearing protection may be required for
appropriate conditions.
• Do not use laser tool if switch does not turn it on or off. Any
tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must
be repaired.
