Residual Risks - Black & Decker BCD003 Original Instructions Manual

ENGLISH
Safety Instructions for All Operations
● Wear ear protectors when impact drilling. Exposure to
noise can cause hearing loss.
● Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when
performing an operation where the cutting accessory
or the fastener may contact hidden wiring. Cutting ac-
cessory or the fastener 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
● Never operate at 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.
● 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 contact-
ing the workpiece, resulting in personal injury.
● 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 for Drill/ Driver/ Ham-
merdrill
● Use clamps or other practical way to secure and support
the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the work by
hand or against your body is unstable and may lead to
loss of control.
● Accessories and tool may get hot during operation. Wear
gloves when handling them if performing heat producing
applications such as drilling metals.
● Air vents often cover moving parts and should be avoided.
Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught in mov-
ing parts.
● Wear safety goggles or other eye protection. Hammering
and drilling operations cause chips to fly. Flying particles
can cause permanent eye damage.
● Wear ear protectors when impact drilling. Exposure to
noise can cause hearing loss.
● Use auxiliary handle(s), if supplied with the tool. Loss of
control can cause personal injury.
● Do not operate this tool for long periods of time. Vibration
caused by tool action may be harmful to your hands
and arms. Use gloves to provide extra cushion and limit
exposure by taking frequent rest periods.
Safety of others
● This appliance can be used by children aged from 8 years
and above and persons with reduced physical, sensory or
mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge if
6
(Original instructions)
they have been given supervision or instruction concern-
ing use of the appliance in a safe way and understand the
hazards involved.
● Children shall not play with the appliance. Cleaning and
user maintenance shall not be made by children without
supervision.

Residual risks

Additional residual risks may arise when using the tool which
may not be included in the enclosed safety warnings. These
risks can arise from misuse, prolonged use etc.
Even with the application of the relevant safety regulations
and the implementation of safety devices, certain residual
risks can not be avoided. These include:
Injuries caused by touching any rotating/moving parts.
u
Injuries caused when changing any parts, blades or ac-
u
cessories.
Injuries caused by prolonged use of a tool. When using
u
any tool for prolonged periods ensure you take regular
breaks.
Impairment of hearing.
u
Health hazards caused by breathing dust developed when
u
using your tool (example:- working with wood, especially
oak, beech and MDF.)
Vibration
The declared vibration emission values stated in the technical
data and the declaration of conformity have been measured in
accordance with a standard test method provided by EN62841
and may be used for comparing one tool with another.
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. The vibration level may increase above the
level stated.
When assessing vibration exposure to determine safety
measures required by 2002/44/EC to protect persons regularly
using power tools in employment, an estimation of vibration
exposure should consider, the actual conditions of use and the
way the tool is used, including 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.
