GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS

WARNING
Read all safety warnings and all 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.
The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.

Work area safety
a) Keep the work area clean and well-lit.
Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
b) Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of ﬂammable liquids, gases, or dust.
Power tools create sparks that may ignite the dust or fumes.
c) Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose control.
Electrical safety
a) 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 the risk of electric shock.
b) 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.
c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions.
Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling, or unplugging the power tool.
Keep the cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges, or moving parts.
Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
e) When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use.
The use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
f) If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD) protected supply.
The use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.
Personal safety
a) 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.
b) Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection.
Protective equipment such as dust masks, non-skid safety shoes, hard hats, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the oﬀ position before connecting to a 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.
d) 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.
e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
f) 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.
g) If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used.
The use of dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.
Power tool use and care
a) 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.
b) Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn on and oﬀ.
Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
c) 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.
d) 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.
e) Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, and any other condition that may aﬀect the power tool 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.
Battery tool use and care
a) Recharge only with the charger speciﬁ ed by the manufacturer.
A charger that is suitable for one type of battery pack may create a risk of ﬁ re 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 ﬁ re.
c) When the 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 ﬁ re.
d) Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally occurs, ﬂush with water. If liquid contacts the eyes, additionally seek medical help.
Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.
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.

PRECAUTION
Keep children and inﬁ rm persons away.
When not in use, tools should be stored out of reach of children and inﬁ rm persons.

CORDLESS DRIVER DRILL SAFETY WARNINGS

Use auxiliary handle(s), if supplied with the tool.
Loss of control can cause personal injury.
Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when performing an operation where the cutting accessory or fastener may contact hidden wiring.
Cutting accessories and fasteners contacting a “live” wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool “live” and could give the operator an electric shock.

ADDITIONAL SAFETY WARNINGS

Make sure that the area to be drilled is absolutely free of any hidden obstructions including electrical wiring, water, or gas pipes. Drilling into the aforementioned may result in electric shock or short circuits, gas leaks, or other hazards that can cause serious accidents or injuries.
Make sure to securely hold the tool during operation. Failure to do so can result in accidents or injuries.
Secure the workpiece. A workpiece clamped with clamping devices or in a vice is held more securely than by hand.
Setting up and checking the work environment. Check if the work environment is suitable by following the precaution.
Do not allow foreign matter to enter the hole for connecting the rechargeable battery.
Never disassemble the rechargeable battery and charger.
Never short-circuit the rechargeable battery. Shortcircuiting the battery will cause a great electric current and overheat. It results in burn or damage to the battery.
Do not dispose of the battery in ﬁ re. If the battery is burnt, it may explode.
Bring the battery to the shop from which it was purchased as soon as the post-charging battery life becomes too short for practical use. Do not dispose of the exhausted battery.
Do not insert objects into the air ventilation slots of the charger. Inserting metal objects or inﬂammables into the charger air ventilation slots will result in an electrical shock hazard or a damaged charger.
Make sure to ﬁrmly install the attachments in the anvil. If the attachments are not ﬁrmly installed they might come out and cause injuries.
For safety purposes, pull lightly on the driver bit after installation to make sure that the bit is secure and will not come loose during operation. If the guide sleeve does not return to its original position, then the bit is not installed properly.
When changing the rotational speed with the shift knob, conﬁ rm that the switch is oﬀ. Changing the speed while the motor is rotating will damage the gears.
The clutch dial cannot be set between the numerals “1, 3, 5 … 21” or the dots, and do not use the clutch dial numeral between “21” and the line at the middle of the drill mark. Doing so may cause damage.
Resting the unit after continuous work.
The motor may stop in the event the tool is overloaded. If this should occur, release the tool’s switch and eliminate the cause of the overload.
The motor rotation may be locked to cease while the unit is used as a drill. While operating the driver drill, take care not to lock the motor.
If the motor is locked, immediately turn the power oﬀ. If the motor is locked for a while, the motor or battery may be burnt.
About the spindle lock mechanism,
You can lock the bit in place when the main switch is oﬀ, and use the tool as a manual screwdriver.
Make sure the lock switch is adjusted to the “▼ LOCK” position before doing so.
Always set the lock switch to the “▼ LOCK” position when carrying or storing the tool to eliminate unintentional starting.
When using the tool in the pistol conﬁ duration, do not hold onto the bending portion of the tool when returning to the straight conﬁ duration. Your ﬁnger or another part of the hand may be pinched by the bending portion resulting in possible injury (Fig. 10).
The use of the battery in a cold condition (below 0 degrees Centigrade) can sometimes result in a weakened tightening torque and reduced amount of work. This, however, is a temporary phenomenon and returns to normal when the battery warms up.
Do not look directly into the light. Such actions could result in eye injury.

CAUTION ON LITHIUM-ION BATTERY
To extend its lifetime, the lithium-ion battery equips with a protection function to stop the output.
In the cases 1 and 2 described below, when using this product, even if you are pulling the switch, the motor may stop. This is not the trouble but the result of the protection function.

When the battery power remaining runs out, the motor stops.
In such a case, charge it immediately.
If the tool is overloaded, the motor may stop. In this case, release the switch of the tool and eliminate the causes of overloading. After that, you can use it again.

Furthermore, please heed the following warning and caution.
WARNING
In order to prevent any battery leakage, heat generation, smoke emission, explosion, and ignition beforehand, please be sure to heed the following precautions.

Make sure that the swarf and dust do not collect on the battery.
○ During work make sure that swarf and dust do not fall on the battery.
○ Make sure that any swarf and dust falling on the power tool during work do not collect on the battery.

MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION

Inspecting the tool
Since the use of the as a dull tool will degrade eﬃciency and cause possible motor malfunction, sharpen or replace the tool as soon as abrasion is noted.
Inspecting the mounting screws
Regularly inspect all mounting screws and ensure that they are properly tightened. Should any of the screws be loose, retighten them immediately. Failure to do so could result in serious hazards.
Maintenance of the motor
The motor unit winding is the very “heart” of the power tool. Exercise due care to ensure the winding does not become damaged and/or wet with oil or water.
Cleaning on the outside
When the driver drill is stained, wipe it with a soft dry cloth or a cloth moistened with soapy water. Do not use chloric solvents, gasoline, or paint thinner, for they melt plastics.
Storage
Store the driver drill in a place in which the temperature is less than 40°C and out of reach of children.

NOTE
Make sure that the battery is fully charged when stored for a long period (3 months or more). The battery with a smaller capacity may not be able to be charged when used if stored for a long period.
NOTE
Storing lithium-ion batteries.
Make sure the lithium-ion batteries have been fully charged before storing them.
Prolonged storage of batteries with a low charge may result in performance deterioration, signiﬁcantly reducing battery usage time or rendering the batteries incapable of holding a charge.
However, signiﬁcantly reduced battery usage time may be recovered by repeatedly charging and using the batteries two to ﬁ ve times.
If the battery usage time is extremely short despite repeated charging and use, consider the batteries dead and purchase new batteries.
CAUTION
In the operation and maintenance of power tools, the safety regulations and standards prescribed in each country must be observed.
