these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
e. Maintain power tools and accessories. 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 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.
Battery Tool Use and Care
a. Recharge only with the charger specified by the manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one type of
battery pack may create a risk of fire when used with another battery pack.
b. Use power tools only with specifically designated battery packs. Use of any other battery packs may create a
risk of injury and fire.
c. When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects, like paper clips, coins, keys, nails,
screws or other small metal objects, that can make a connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the
battery terminals together may cause burns or a fire.
d. Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally
occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery
may cause irritation or burns.
e. Do not use a battery pack or tool that is damaged or modified. Damaged or modified batteries may exhibit
unpredictable behavior resulting in fire, explosion or risk of injury.
f. Do not expose a battery pack or tool to fire or excessive temperature. Exposure to fire or temperature above
265 °F (130 °C) may cause explosion.
g. Follow all charging instructions and do not charge the battery pack or tool outside the temperature range
specified in the instructions. Charging improperly or at temperatures outside the specified range may damage
the battery and increase the risk of fire.
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.
b. Never service damaged battery packs. Service of battery packs should only be performed by the
manufacturer or authorized service providers.
DRILL/DRIVER SAFETY WARNINGS
Safety Instructions for All Operations
a. Wear ear protectors when impact drilling. Exposure to noise can cause hearing loss.
b. Brace the tool properly before use. This tool produces a high output torque and without properly bracing the
tool during operation, loss of control may occur resulting in 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. Cutting accessory contacting a “live” wire may make
exposed metal parts of the power tool “live” and could give the operator an electric shock.
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 .
