General power tool safety warnings
WARNING! Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations, and specifications 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.

Work area safety

Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
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 dust or fumes.
Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control. Electrical safety
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.
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.
Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
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.
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.
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
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.

The following information applies to professional users only but is good practice for all users:
ADDITIONAL SAFETY WARNING FOR CONSTRUCTION DUST The updated Control of Substances Hazardous to Health Regulations 1st October 2012 now also targets to reduce the risks associated with silica, wood and gypsum dusts. Construction workers are one of the at-risk groups within this because of the dust that they breathe: silica dust is not just a nuisance, it is a real risk to your lungs! Silica is a natural mineral present in large amounts in things like sand, sandstone and granite. It is also commonly found in many construction materials such as concrete and mortar. The silica is broken into very fine dust (also known as Respirable Crystalline Silica or RCS) during many common tasks such as cutting, drilling and grinding. Breathing in very fine particles of crystalline silica can lead to the development of: Lung cancer Silicosis Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disorder/ Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) And breathing in fine particles of wood dust can lead to the development of Asthma. The risk of lung disease is linked to people who regularly breathe construction dust over a period of time, not on the odd occasion. To protect the lung, the COSHH Regulations sets a limit on the amount of this dust that you can breathe (called a Workplace Exposure Limit or WEL) when averaged over a normal working day.
These limits are not a large amount of dust: when compared to a penny it is tiny – like a small pinch of salt: This limit is the legal maximum, the most you can breathe after the right controls have been used.
How to reduce the amount of dust?
1. Reduce the amount of cutting by using the best sizes of building products.
2. Use a less powerful tool e.g. a block cutter instead of an angle grinder.
3. Using a different method of work altogether – e.g. using a nail gun to direct fasten cable trays instead of drilling holes first. Please always work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles and use the dust extraction facility at all times. For more information please see the HSE website: http://www.hse.gov.uk/construction or cis69 [PDF]

Warning : Some dust particles created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drill, and other construction jobs contain chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are

Lead from lead-based paints.
Crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products.
Arsenic and chromium from chemically treated timber. Your risk from these exposures varies, depending upon how often you do this type of work.
To reduce your exposure to these chemicals:
Work in a well-ventilated area.
Work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed to filter microscopic particles.

VIBRATION
The European Physical Agents (Vibration) Directive has been brought in to help reduce hand-arm vibration syndrome injuries to power tool users. The directive requires power tool manufacturers and suppliers to provide indicative vibration test results to enable users to make informed decisions as to the period of time a power tool can be used safely on a daily basis and the choice of tool.

SEE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS IN THE INSTRUCTION MANUAL FOR THE VIBRATION LEVELS OF YOUR TOOL.
The declared vibration emission value should be used as a minimum level and should be used with the current guidance on vibration. Calculating the actual period of use can be difficult and the HSE website has further information. The declared vibration emission has been measured in accordance with a standardized test stated above and may be used to compare one tool with another tool. The declared vibration emission value may also be used in a preliminary assessment of exposure.

Warning: The vibration emission value during actual use of the power tool can differ from the declared value depending on the ways in which the tool is used depending on the following examples and other variations on how the tool is used: How the tool is used and the materials being cut or drilled. The tool is in good condition and well maintained. The use of the correct accessory for the tool and ensuring it is sharp and in good condition. The tightness of the grip on the handles. And the tool is being used as intended by its design and these instructions.

While working with this power tool, hand/arm vibrations occur. Adopt the correct working practices in order to reduce the exposure to vibration. This tool may cause hand-arm vibration syndrome if its use is not adequately managed.

Warning: Identify safety measures to protect the operator that is based on an estimation of exposure in the actual conditions of use (taking account of all parts of the operating cycle such as the times when the tool is switched off and when it is running idle in addition to the trigger time).

Note: The use of other tools will reduce the users’ total working period on this tool.
Helping to minimize your vibration exposure risk. ALWAYS use sharp chisels, drills, and blades. Maintain this tool in accordance with these instructions and keep well lubricated (where appropriate). Avoid using tools in temperatures of 10ºC or less. Plan your work schedule to spread any high vibration tool use across a number of days.

Drilling
> Set the torque ring to drilling mode when drilling into wood, plastic or metal, and hammer drilling mode for drilling into brickwork/masonry.

Always hold the product perpendicular to the point to be drilled. Holding it at an angle may cause slipping or jamming of the drill bit.
Always place the drill tip directly on the point to be drilled first and then switch the product on.
Pre-drill larger holes with a small diameter drill bit first. Doing so makes drilling with a larger diameter drill bit easier.
Do not always drill at top speed. This unnecessarily increases the wear and tear of the product and drill bit.
Remove blocked and stuck drill bits by changing the rotational direction.

Drilling into plastic and metal

Punch the drilling point before operation in order to avoid slipping of the drill.
Use a metal drill bit for drilling into plastic and metal. Select a low speed and where necessary use a cooling lubricant that is available at your specialist dealer.

Drilling into brickwork/masonry

An impact drill is ideal for drilling in normal masonry. If you want to drill into very hard concrete, you may require a rotary hammer.
Use an inspection device to ensure that you do not accidentally drill into a cable or pipe. Wear protective glasses when drilling.
Determine the exact position of the holes and mark them using a pencil. A cross-line laser will make this task easier for you.
Choose a masonry drill bit with the same diameter as the fixing you want to use. Mount the drill bit securely in the center of the chuck.
Place the drill bit tip perpendicular to the wall.If you do not exactly know the condition of the wall material, start drilling without impact and only switch the impact function on when there is resistance. Do not apply pressure to the machine until the drill bit has gripped firmly in the material.
Drill the hole so that it is deep enough for both the fixing and the screw to fit fully. Use a depth stop if necessary. Leave the drill bit running at low speed when you pull it out. > Remove the drilling dust from the hole. This will ensure that the fixing has a better grip.

NOTE: When operating the product at low speed for a longer period, the motor may overheat. Therefore take breaks of approx. 5 minutes on a regular basis to let the motor cool down.

Screw driving

Set the torque ring to screw driving mode (numbers).
Adjust the torque setting according to the screw size and workpiece material.
Pre-drill the holes with a smaller diameter of the screw to be screwed.
Hold the product perpendicular to the screw to be screwed in/out. Holding it at an angle may cause slipping or jamming of the driver bit.
Place the tip of the driver bit directly on the screw first and then switch the product on. Only apply as much pressure as necessary to keep the screw in place and the driver bit in contact with the screw head. Too much pressure will cause damage to the screw head and driver bit; too little pressure will cause the driver bit to slide away.
Remove blocked and stuck screws by changing the rotational direction.
