SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR IMPACT DRILLS
Wear hearing protection.
• Exposure to noise can cause
hearing loss.
Use auxiliary handle(s), if supplied with the tool.
•
Loss of control can cause personal injury.
Use suitable detectors to determine if utility lines
•
are hidden in the work area or call the local utility
company for assistance.
Contact with electric lines
can lead to re and electric shock. Damaging a gas line
can lead to explosion. Penetrating a water line causes
property damage or may cause an electric shock.
Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces,
•
when performing an operation where the cutting
accessory may contact hidden wiring or its own
cord.
Cutting accessory contacting a "live" wire may
make exposed metal parts of the power tool "live" and
could give the operator an electric shock.
When working with the power tool, always hold it
•
firmly with both hands and provide for a secure
stance.
The power tool is guided more secure with
both hands.
Secure the workpiece.
• A workpiece clamped with
clamping devices or in a vice is held more secure than
by hand.
Keep your workplace clean.
• Blends of materials are
particularly dangerous. Dust from light alloys can burn
or explode.
Always wait until the power tool has come to a
•
complete stop before placing it down.
The tool insert
can jam and lead to loss of control over the power tool.
Do not use the power tool with a damaged cord. Do
•
not touch the damaged cord and pull the plug from
the outlet when the cord is damaged while working.
Damaged cords increase the risk of an electric shock.
