General Safety Tips

• Never climb a tree near electrical lines.
• Never place electrical cords under carpets.
• Stay away from areas marked Danger: High Voltage!
• Electric power tools should not be used in the rain, or on wet surfaces, near a sprinkler or pool.
• All outdoor outlets should have ground fault interrupters.
• Keep power tools in a dry place. Dampness can increase the possibility of shocks.
• Never replace a blown fuse with a copper penny or wrap one in aluminum foil.
• Always unplug an appliance by the plug, not by pulling the cord.
• Fans and electric heaters should be placed out of a child’s reach.
• Use plastic safety plugs in outlets that are seldom used.
