Electrical safety guidelines for your Porter Cable circular saw

• Only use an electrical outlet or extension cord that matches the circular saw outlet plug. Don't modify the saw's outlet plug to fit the electrical outlet or extension cord.
• Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators when operating the circular saw to reduce the risk of electrical shock if wires or components in the saw short circuit while your body is touching a grounded object.
• Don't expose the circular saw to rain or wet conditions because water entering the saw will increase the risk of electrical shock.
• Use an extension cord that is suitable for outdoor use when using the circular saw outdoors.
