Precautions
WARNING! When using electric tools, basic safety precautions
should always be followed to prevent the risk of fire, electric
shock, and personal injury.
• KEEP GUARDS IN PLACE and in working order.
• KEEP WORK AREA CLEAN. Cluttered areas and bench invite
accidents.
• DO NOT USE IN DANGEROUS ENVIRONMENT. Do not use
power tools in damp or wet locations or expose them to rain.
Keep work area well lit. Do not use tools in the presence of
flammable liquids or gases.
• KEEP CHILDREN AWAY. All visitors should be kept safe dis-
tance from work area.
• MAKE WORKSHOP KID PROOF with padlocks, masterswitch-
es, or by removing starter keys.
• DO NOT FORCE THE TOOL. It will do the job better and safer
at the rate for which it was designed.
• USE THE RIGHT TOOL. Don't force tool or attachment to do a
job for which it was not designed.

with earthed or grounded surfaces.
• USE PROPER EXTENSION CORD. Make sure your extension
cord is in good condition. When using an extension cord, be
sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product
will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line volt-
age resulting in loss of power and overheating. The Drill Doc-
tor
® has a 1.75 ampere rating (.4 ampere in E.U; .74 ampere
in Japan). Therefore, when choosing an extension cord, please
select cords of the following gauge:
—a 25 ft. cord must be at least 18 gauge
—a 50 or 100 ft. cord must be at least 16 gauge
—a 150 ft. cord must be at least 14 gauge
