e.  Maintain  power  tools.  Check  for  misalignment  or 
binding  of moving  parts,  breakage  of  parts  and  any 
other  condition  that  may  affect  the  power  tools 
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.
5.  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.
6.  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.
 
ADDITIONAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS
Warning!  Additional  safety  warnings  for 
drills/screwdrivers
•  Wear ear protectors when impact drilling. Exposure to 
noise can cause hearing loss.
•  Use auxiliary  handles  supplied  with  the  tool.  Loss  of 
control can cause personal injury.
•  Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces when 
performing an operation where the cutting accessory   
  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.
•  Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when 
performing  an  operation  where  the  fastener  may 
contact hidden wiring. Fasteners contacting a "live" wire 
may make exposed metal parts of the power tool "live" and 
could give the operator an electric shock.
•  Use  clamps  or  another  practical  way  to  secure  and 
support the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the 
work by hand or against your body leaves it unstable and 
may lead to loss of control.
•  Before drilling into walls, floors or ceilings, check  for  the 
location of wiring and pipes.
•  Avoid touching the tip of a drill bit just after drilling, as it may 
be hot.
•  The intended use is described in this instruction manual. 
The use of any accessory or attachment or performance of 
any operation with this tool other than those recommended 
in this instruction manual may present a risk of personal 
injury and/or damage to property.
 SAFETY OF OTHERS
•  This  tool  is  not  intended  for  use  by  persons  (including 
children)  with  reduced  physical,  sensory  or  mental 
capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless

use of the tool by a person responsible for their safety.
•  Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not 
play with the appliance.
Residual risks
Additional residual risks may arise when using the tool which 
may not be included in the enclosed safety warnings. These 
risks can arise from misuse, prolonged use etc.

the implementation of safety devices, certain residual risks can 
not be avoided. These include:
•  Injuries caused by touching any rotating/moving parts.
•  Injuries  caused  when  changing  any  parts,  blades  or 
accessories.
•  Injuries caused by prolonged use of a tool. When using any 
tool for prolonged periods ensure you take regular breaks.
•  Impairment of hearing.
