2.4 Additional safety instructions

Personal safety
▶ Use the product only when it is in perfect working order.
▶ Never tamper with or modify the tool in any way.
▶ Do not look directly into the light source (LEDs) integrated in the drill/driver
and do not direct the light at other persons' faces. This presents a risk of
dazzling or eye damage.
▶ Avoid touching rotating parts. Switch the power tool on only after bringing
it into position at the workpiece. Touching rotating parts, especially
rotating accessory tools, may lead to injury.
▶ Wear protective gloves also when changing the accessory tool. Touching
the accessory tool presents a risk of injury (cuts or burns).
▶ Always hold the tool securely by the grip. If the accessory tool (e.g. the
drill bit) sticks and stalls, the power tool, due to its high torque, may
tend to rotate about its own axis in the direction opposite to that of the
accessory tool.
▶ Make sure that the workplace is well ventilated and, where necessary,
wear a respirator appropriate for the type of dust generated. Contact with
or inhalation of the dust may cause allergic reactions and/or respiratory
or other diseases to the operator or bystanders. Certain kinds of dust
are classified as carcinogenic such as oak and beech dust, especially
in conjunction with additives for wood conditioning (chromate, wood
preservative). Material containing asbestos may be handled only by
specialists.
▶ Take breaks and exercise your fingers to improve the blood circulation.
Exposure to vibration during long periods of work can lead to disorders
of the blood vessels and nervous system in the fingers, hands and wrists.
Electrical safety
▶ Before beginning work, check the working area for concealed electric
cables or gas and water pipes. External metal parts of the power tool may
give you an electric shock if you damage an electric cable accidentally.
Power tool use and care
▶ Secure the workpiece. Use clamps or a vice to hold the workpiece in
position. The workpiece is thus held more securely than by hand and both
hands remain free to operate the power tool.
▶ Immediately switch off the power tool if the accessory tool jams. The
power tool might twist off-line.
▶ Wait until the power tool stops completely before you lay it down.
