Specific Safety Rules - Porter-Cable PCE211 Instruction Manual

connection of dust extraction and
collection facilities, ensure these
are connected and properly used.
Use of dust collection can reduce
dust-related hazards.
h) Do not let familiarity gained from
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 the battery
pack 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. Check for
misalignment or binding of moving
parts, breakage of parts and any
other condition that may affect the
power tool's 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) SERVICE
a) Have your power tool serviced by a
qualified repair person using only
identical replacement parts. This will
ensure that the safety of the power tool
is maintained.

SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES

• Hold power tool by insulated gripping
surfaces, when performing an
operation where the fastener may
contact hidden wiring or its own cord.
Fastener contacting a "live" wire may
make exposed metal parts of the power
tool "live" and could give the operator an
electric shock.
• Wear ear protectors with impact drivers.
Exposure to noise can cause hearing loss.
• Use clamps or another practical way
to secure and support the work piece
to a stable platform. Holding the work
by hand or against your body leaves it
unstable and may lead to loss of control.
• When not in use, place tool on its side on
a stable surface where it will not cause a
tripping or falling hazard. Some tools with
large battery packs will stand upright but
may be easily knocked over.
• Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves
away from air vents. Air vents often cover
moving parts in which these items can be
caught.
• Hold tool firmly with two hands. Loss
of control can cause personal injury.
• Wear safety goggles or other eye
protection. Hammering and drilling operations
cause chips to fly. Flying particles can cause
permanent eye damage.
• Bits, sockets and tools get hot during
operation. Wear gloves when touching them.
• 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.
• Wear appropriate personal hearing
protection during use. Under some
conditions and duration of use, noise from
this product may contribute to hearing
loss.
WARNING:
torque wrenches. Do not use this tool for
tightening fasteners to specified torques. An
independent, calibrated torque
measurement device such as a torque
wrench should be used when under
tightened or over tightened fasteners can
lead to the failure of the joint.
WARNING:
glasses. Everyday eyeglasses are NOT
safety glasses. Also use face or dust mask
if drilling operation is dusty. ALWAYS
WEAR CERTIFIED SAFETY EQUIPMENT:
• ANSI Z87.1 eye protection (CAN/
CPA Z94.3),

Impact wrenches are not
ALWAYS use safety
