Black & Decker KC600H Instructions Manual page 4

ENGLISH
e. Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or
binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any
other condition that may affect the power tools
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 and in the
manner intended for the particular type of power
tool, 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.
5. Battery tool use and care
a. Ensure the switch is in the off position before
inserting battery pack.
Inserting the battery pack into power tools that have the
switch on invites accidents.
b. Recharge only with the charger specified by the
manufacturer.
A charger that is suitable for one type of battery pack may
create a risk of fire when used with another battery pack.
c. Use power tools only with specifically designated
battery packs.
Use of any other battery packs may create a risk of injury
and fire.
d. When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from
other metal objects like paper clips, coins, keys,
nails, screws, or other small metal objects that can
make a connection from one terminal to another.
Shorting the battery terminals together may cause burns
or a fire.
e. Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected
from the battery; avoid contact. If contact
accidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid
contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help.
Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.
6. 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.
Additional safety instructions for impact drills
Wear ear protectors with impact drills. Exposure to
noise can cause hearing loss.
4
Use auxiliary handles supplied with the tool. Loss of
control can cause personal injury.
Additional safety instructions for drill/screwdrivers
Hold tool 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 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.
Before drilling into walls, floors or ceilings, check for the
location of wiring and pipes.
Avoid touching the tip of a drill bit just after drilling, as it
may be hot.
