Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when performing an operation where the fastener may contact hidden wiring. Fasteners contacting a wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool and could give the operator an electric shock.
Wear ear protectors when drilling. Exposure to noise can cause hearing loss.
When not in use, all tools should be disconnected from power source.
The dust produced when using the product may pose a health hazard. Do not inhale the dust. Wear a suitable dust protection mask..
Do not operate on materials (e.g., asbestos) that present a health hazard.
Switch off the product immediately if the bit stalls. Do not switch on the product again while the bit is stalled, as doing so could trigger a sudden recoil with a high reactive force. Determine why the bit stalled and rectify this, paying heed to the safety instructions. The possible causes may be:
- it is tilted in the workpiece
- it has pierced the workpiece
- the product is overloaded
Sawdust and splinters must not be removed while the product is running.
When working in walls, ceilings, or floors, avoid hitting electrical cables and gas or water pipes.
Secure your workpiece with a clamping device.

RESIDUAL RISKS

Even when the product is used as prescribed, it is still impossible to completely eliminate certain residual risk factors. The following hazards may arise, and the operator should pay special attention to avoid the following:

Risk of electrocution if electric cables are drilled into. Always grasp the product by designated handles; do not touch the drill bits.
Injury caused by vibration. Hold the product by designated handles and limit exposure to vibration. See “RISK REDUCTION”.

RISK REDUCTION
It has been reported that vibrations from hand-held tools may contribute to a condition called Raynaud’s Syndrome in certain individuals. Symptoms may include tingling, numbness and blanching of the fi ngers, usually apparent upon exposure to cold. Hereditary factors, exposure to cold and dampness, diet, smoking and work practices are all thought to contribute to the development of these symptoms. There are measures that can be taken by the operator to possibly reduce the effects of vibration:

Keep your body warm in cold weather. When operating the unit wear gloves to keep the hands and wrists warm. It is reported that cold weather is a major factor contributing to Raynaud’s Syndrome.
After each period of operation, exercise to increase blood circulation.
Take frequent work breaks. Limit the amount of exposure per day.

If you experience any of the symptoms of this condition, immediately discontinue use and see your doctor about these symptoms.

WARNING
Injuries may be caused, or aggravated, by prolonged use of a tool. When using any tool for prolonged periods, ensure you take regular breaks.
