Drill/Driver Safety Warnings
• Wear ear protectors with impact drills. Exposure to noise can cause hearing
loss.
• Hold power tools by insulated gripping surfaces when performing an
operation where the cutting tool may contact hidden wiring or its own cord.
Contact with a "live" wire will make exposed metal parts of the tool "live" and
shock the operator.
• 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.
• Air vents often cover moving parts and should be avoided. Loose clothes,
jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
WARNING: ALWAYS use safety glasses. Everyday eyeglasses are NOT safety
glasses. Also use face or dust mask if
cutting operation is dusty. ALWAYS WEAR CERTIFIED SAFETY EQUIPMENT:
• ANSI Z87.1 eye protection (CAN/CSA Z94.3),
• ANSI S12.6 (S3.19) hearing protection,
• NIOSH/OSHA/MSHA respiratory protection.
