dust collection can reduce dust-related
hazards.
h) Do not let familiarity gained from
frequent use of tools allow you to
become complacent and ignore tool
safety principles. A careless action can
cause severe injury within a fraction of a
second.
4) Power tool use and care
a) Do not force the power tool. Use
the correct power tool for your
application. The correct power tool will do
the job better and safer at the rate for which
it was designed.
b) Do not use the power tool if the
switch does not turn it on and off.
Any power tool that cannot be controlled
with the switch is dangerous and must be
repaired.
c) Disconnect the plug from the power
source and/or the battery pack from
the power tool before making any
adjustments, changing accessories,
or storing power tools. Such preventive
safety measures reduce the risk of starting
the power tool accidentally.
d) Store idle power tools out of the
reach of children and do not allow
persons unfamiliar with the power tool
or these instructions to operate the
power tool. Power tools are dangerous in
the hands of untrained users.
e) Maintain power tools. Check for
misalignment or binding of moving
parts, breakage of parts and any other
condition that may affect the power
tool's operation. If damaged, have the
power tool repaired before use. Many
accidents are caused by poorly maintained
power tools.
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly maintained cutting tools with
sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind
and are easier to control.
g) Use the power tool, accessories and
tool bits etc. in accordance with these
instructions, taking into account the
working conditions and the work to
be performed. Use of the power tool for
operations different from those intended
Impact drill
could result in a hazardous situation.
h) Keep handles and grasping surfaces
dry, clean and free from oil and grease.
Slippery handles and grasping surfaces do
not allow for safe handling and control of
the tool in unexpected situations.
5) Service
a) Have your power tool serviced by
a qualified repair person using only
identical replacement parts. This will
ensure that the safety of the power tool is
maintained.
DRILL SAFETY WARNINGS
1) Safety instructions for all operations
a) Wear ear protectors when impact
drilling. Exposure to noise can cause
hearing loss.
b) Use auxiliary handle(s).Loss of control
can cause personal injury.
c) Hold the power tool by insulated
gripping surfaces, when performing
an operation where the cutting
accessory or fasteners may contact
hidden wiring or its own cord. Cutting
accessory or fasteners contacting a "live"
wire may make exposed metal parts of
the power tool "live" and could give the
operator an electric shock.
2) Safety instructions when using long
drill bits
a) Never operate at higher speed than
the maximum speed rating of the drill
bit. At higher speeds, the bit is likely
to bend if allowed to rotate freely
without contacting the workpiece,
resulting in personal injury.
b) Always start drilling at low speed
and with the bit tip in contact with
the workpiece. At higher speeds,
the bit is likely to bend if allowed to
rotate freely without contacting the
workpiece, resulting in personal injury.
c) Apply pressure only in direct line with
the bit and do not apply excessive
pressure. Bits can bend causing
breakage or loss of control, resulting
in personal injury.
