g) If dust extraction and collection devices can
be mounted, make sure that they are connect-
ed and used properly. Using a dust extraction
unit can reduce hazards caused by dust.
h) Do not allow yourself to be lulled into a false
sense of security and do not ignore the safety
rules for electric tools, even when you have
used them many times and have become fa-
miliar with them. Careless actions can result in
serious injuries within a fraction of a second.
Using and handling the electric tool
a) Do not overload the device. Use the electric tool
intended for your work. The suitable electric tool
allows you to work better and more safely in the
indicated power range.
b) Do not use an electric tool whose switch is
defective. An electric tool that cannot be
switched on or off is dangerous and must be
repaired.
c) Remove the plug from the socket and/or take
out a removable battery before setting the
device, changing insertion tool parts or put-
ting the electric tool away. These precautionary
measures will prevent the electric tool from start-
ing unintentionally.
d) Keep unused electric tools out of the reach of
children. Do not let people use the electric tool
who are not familiar with it or who have not read
these instructions. Electric tools are dangerous if
they are used by inexperienced people.
e) Maintain electric tools and tool attachments
with care. Check whether moving parts function
properly and do not get stuck and whether parts
are broken or are damaged and thus adversely
affect the electric tool function. Have damaged
parts repaired before using the electric tool. Many
accidents are caused by poorly maintained elec-
tric tools.
f) Always keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Carefully maintained cutting tools with sharp
cutting edges seize up less often and are eas-
ier to guide.
g) Use electric tools, accessories, insertion tool,
etc. according to these instructions. Take the
working conditions and the activity to be carried
out into consideration. Using electric tools for ap-
plications other than the intended uses can lead
to dangerous situations.
h) Keep the handles and gripping surfaces dry,
clean and free of oil and grease. Slippery han-
dles and gripping surfaces prevent safe operation
and control of the electrical tool in unforeseen sit-
uations.

a) Only have your electric tool repaired by qual-
ified specialists and only with original spare
parts. This ensures that safety of the electric tool
is maintained.
Safety instructions for drills
a) The drill must be secured. An incorrectly se-
cured drill can move or topple and this can result
in injuries.
b) The workpiece must be clamped or fastened
to the workpiece support. Do not drill into
workpieces that are too small to be securely
clamped. Holding the workpiece by hand can
lead to injuries.
c) Do not wear gloves. Gloves can be caught by
rotating parts or drilling debris and thus cause in-
juries.
d) Keep your hands away from the drilling area
whilst the electrical tool is running. Contact
with rotating parts or drilling debris can cause in-
juries.
e) The drill must be turning before it makes con-
tact with the workpiece. Otherwise, the drill bit
can catch in the workpiece and this can result in
an unexpected movement of the workpiece and
cause injuries.
f) If the drill becomes jammed, stop pressing
downwards and switch the electrical tool
off. Investigate and rectify the cause of the
jamming. Jamming can result in an unexpected
movement of the workpiece and can result in se-
rious injuries.
g) Avoid long pieces of drill swarf by interrupt-
ing the downward pressure at regular inter-
vals. Sharp metal swarf can become tangled and
lead to injuries.
h) Never remove drilling debris from the drilling
area whilst the electrical tool is running. To
remove swarf, move the drill away from the
workpiece, switch off the electrical tool and
wait until the drill has come to a standstill.
Use an aid such as a brush or a hook to re-
move the swarf. Contact with rotating parts or
drilling debris can cause injuries.
i) The permissible rotational speed for drill bits
with a rated speed must be at least as high as
the highest speed cited on the electrical tool.
Accessories that rotate faster than permitted can
break and fly off at high speed.
