POWER TOOL SAFETY
WARNING
Read and understand all safety warnings and instructions. Failure to follow
the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or
serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
WORK AREA SAFETY
1. Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite
accidents.
2. Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the
presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which
may ignite the dust or fumes.
3. Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose control.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
1. Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way.
Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified
plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
2. Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes,
radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric
shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
3. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a
power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
4. Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or
unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or
moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
5. When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for
outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of
electric shock.
6. If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a
residual current device (RCD) protected supply. Use of a ground fault circuit
interrupter (GFCI) reduces the risk of electric shock.
PERSONAL SAFETY
1. Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a
power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence
of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power
tools may result in serious personal injury.
2. Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective
equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing
protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
3. Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position
before connecting to power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying
the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or energizing
power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
4. Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A
wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result
in personal injury.
5. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This
enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
6. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Keep your hair,
clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or long
hair can be caught in moving parts.
7. If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and
collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of
dust collection can reduce dust related hazards.
POWER TOOL SAFETY
1. 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.
2. 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.
3. 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.
4. 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.
5. 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.
6. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with
sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
7. 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.
8. Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when performing an
operation where the fastener may contact hidden wiring or its own cord.
Fasteners contacting a “live” wire may make exposed metal parts of the power
tool “live” and could give the operator an electric shock.
9. Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when performing an
operation where the fastener may contact hidden wiring or its own cord.
Fasteners contacting a “live” wire may make exposed metal parts of the power
tool “live” and could give the operator an electric shock.
BATTERY TOOL USE AND CARE
1. 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.
2. Use power tools only with specifically designated battery packs. Use of
any other battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire.
3. 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.
4. 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.
SERVICE
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.
SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES
WARNING
1. Know your cordless, brushless Drill. Do not plug in the charger or install
the battery in the tool until you have read and understand this Instruction
Manual. Learn the tool’s applications and limitations, as well as the specific
potential hazards related to this tool. Following this rule will reduce the
risk of electric shock, fire, or serious injury.
2. Always wear eye protection. Any power tool can throw foreign objects into
your eyes and cause permanent eye damage. ALWAYS wear safety goggles (not
glasses) that comply with ANSI safety standard Z87.1. Everyday glasses have
only impact resistant lenses. They ARE NOT safety glasses.
3. Glasses or goggles not in compliance with ANSI Z87.1 could cause serious
injury when they break.
4. Always use a safety shield, hearing protection and dust mask when
operating the Drill.
5. To avoid fire or toxic reaction, never use gasoline, naphtha and acetone,
lacquer thinner or similar highly volatile solvents to clean the tool.
6. Use only accessories that are designed for use with this tool. Follow the
instructions that accompany accessories. The use of improper accessories may
result in injury to the operator or damage to the tool.
7. If any part is missing or damaged, do not plug the tool into the power
source or install any accessory until the missing or damaged part is replaced.
Do not drill material too small to be securely held.
8. Always keep hands out of the path of the drill bit. Avoid awkward hand
positions where a sudden slip could cause your hand to move into the path of
the drill bit.
9. Secure the workpiece. Use clamps or a vice to hold the workpiece. It is
safer than using your hand and it frees both hands to operate the tool.
10. Make sure there are no nails or foreign objects in the part of the
workpiece to be drilled.
11. To avoid injury from accidental starting, always remove the battery from
the tool before installing or removing a drill bit.
12. Do not install or use any drill bit that exceeds 7″ (17.5 cm) in length
or extends more than 6″(15 cm) beyond the chuck jaws. They can bend or break
suddenly.
13. Before starting the operation, jog the drill switch to make sure the
drill bit does not wobble or vibrate.
14. Do not use fly cutters or multiple-part hole cutters, because they can
come apart or become unbalanced during use.
15. Make sure the spindle has come to a complete stop before touching the
chuck or attempting to change the drill bit.
16. Always make sure the chuck is tight and the drill bit firmly tightened in
the chuck before starting drill.
