ADDITIONAL SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES

Drill/Driver/Hammerdrill 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. Cutting accessory contacting a
"live" wire may make exposed metal parts of the
tool "live" and shock the operator.
• Use auxiliary handles supplied with the tool.
Loss of control can cause personal injury.
• 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.
• Wear ear protectors when hammering for
extended periods of time. Prolonged exposure
to high intensity noise can cause hearing loss.
Temporary hearing loss or serious ear drum
damage may result from high sound levels
generated by hammerdrilling.
• Wear safety goggles or other eye protection.
Hammering and drilling operations cause chips
to fly. Flying particles can cause permanent eye
damage.
• Hammer bits and tools get hot during
operation. Wear gloves when touching them.
Residual Risks
The following risks are inherent to the use of drills:
– Injuries caused by touching the rotating parts or
hot parts of the tool.
In spite of the application of the relevant safety
regulations and the implementation of safety devices,
certain residual risks cannot be avoided. These are:
– Impairment of hearing.
– Risk of squeezing fingers when changing
accessories.
– Health hazards caused by breathing dust
developed when working in wood.
– Risk of personal injury due to flying particles.
– Risk of personal injury due to prolonged use.
