GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS

WARNING
Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations, and specifi cations provided with this power tool.
Failure to follow all instructions listed below 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.

  1. 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 which may ignite the dust or fumes.
    c) Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool.
    Distractions can cause you to lose control.

  2. 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. Unmodifi ed 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.

  3. 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 a dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, 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 and clothing 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.
    h) Do not let familiarity gained from the frequent use of tools allow you to become complacent and ignore tool safety principles. A careless action can cause severe injury within a fraction of a second.

  4. 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 it 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 remove the battery pack, if detachable, 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 and accessories. 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.
    h) Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean and free from oil and grease. Slippery handles and grasping surfaces do not allow for safe handling and control of the tool  in unexpected situations.

  5. 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 fire.
    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.
    e) Do not use a battery pack or tool that is damaged or modified. Damaged or modifi ed batteries may exhibit unpredictable behavior resulting in fi re, explosion or risk of injury.
    f) Do not expose a battery pack or tool to fi re or excessive temperature. Exposure to fi re or temperature above 130°C may cause an explosion.
    g) Follow all charging instructions and do not charge the battery pack or tool outside the temperature range specifi ed in the instructions. Charging improperly or at temperatures outside the specifi ed range may damage the battery and increase the risk of fire.

  6. Service
    a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualifi ed repair person using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
    b) Never service damaged battery packs. Service of battery packs should only be performed by the manufacturer or authorized service providers.
    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/COMBI DRILL SAFETY WARNINGS
Safety instructions for all operations
a) Wear ear protectors when impact drilling. Exposure to noise can cause hearing loss. <DS18DD / DV18DD>
b) Use auxiliary handle(s), if supplied with the tool. Loss of control can cause personal injury.
c) Brace the tool properly before use. This tool produces a high output torque and without properly bracing the tool during operation, loss of control may occur resulting in personal injury.
d) Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when performing an operation where the cutting accessory or fastener may contact hidden wiring. Cutting accessory and fasteners contacting a “live” wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool “live” and could give the operator an electric shock.

Safety instructions when using long drill bits
a) Never operate at a higher speed than the maximum speed rating of the drill bit. At higher speeds, the bit is likely to bend if allowed to rotate freely without contacting the workpiece, resulting in personal injury.
b) Always start drilling at low speed and with the bit tip in contact with the workpiece. At higher speeds, the bit is likely to bend if allowed to rotate freely without contacting the workpiece, resulting in personal injury.
c) Apply pressure only in direct line with the bit and do not apply excessive pressure. Bits can bend causing breakage or loss of control, resulting in personal injury.

ADDITIONAL SAFETY WARNINGS

  1. 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 circuit, gas leak or other hazards that can cause serious accidents or injuries.
  2. Make sure to securely hold the tool during operation. Failure to do so can result in accidents or injuries. (Fig. 1)
  3. Secure the workpiece. A workpiece clamped with clamping devices or vice is held more securely than by hand.
  4. Setting up and checking the work environment. Check if the work environment is suitable by following the precaution.
  5. Do not allow foreign matter to enter the hole for connecting the rechargeable battery.
  6. Never disassemble the rechargeable battery and charger.
  7. 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.
  8. Do not dispose of the battery in fi re. If the battery is burnt, it may explode.
  9. 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.
  10. Do not insert objects into the air ventilation slots of the charger. Inserting metal objects or infl flammables into the charger air ventilation slots will result in an electrical shock hazard or a damaged charger.
  11. When mounting a bit into the keyless chuck, tighten the sleeve adequately. If the sleeve is not tight, the bit may slip or fall out, causing injury.
  12. 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.
  13. The clutch dial cannot be set between the numerals “1, 5, 10 … 20” or the dots, and do not use the clutch dial numeral between “20” and the line at the middle of the drill mark. Doing so may cause damage. (DS18DD only)
  14. Always use this unit with clockwise rotation, when using it as an impact drill. (DV18DD only)
  15. Resting the unit after continuous work.
  16. After use for continuous tightening wood screw works, rest the unit for 15 minutes or so when replacing the battery. The temperature of the motor, switch, etc., will rise if the work is started again immediately after battery replacement, eventually resulting in burnout.
  17. 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.
  18. 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.
  19. 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.
  20. The use of the battery in a cold condition (below 0 degree 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.
  21. Install securely the hook. Unless the hook is securely installed, it may cause an injury while use.
  22. To prevent the battery power consumption caused by forgetting to turn off the LED light, the light goes off automatically in about 10 seconds.
  23. Do not look directly into the light. Such actions could result in eye injury.
  24. Always use the tool and the battery at temperatures between -5°C and 40°C.
  25. Always charge the battery at an ambient temperature of 0 – 40°C.
