Skil HD182001 Owner's Manual page 6

When removing the bit from the tool avoid contact with skin and use proper protective
gloves when grasping the bit or accessory . Accessories may be hot after prolonged use.
Check to see that keys and adjusting wrenches are removed from the drill before
switching the tool "ON" . Keys or wrenches can fly away at high velocity striking you or a
bystander.
Do not run the drill while carrying it at your side . A spinning drill bit could become
entangled with clothing and injury may result.
GFCI and personal protection devices like electrician's rubber gloves and footwear will further
enhance your personal safety.
Do not use AC only rated tools with a DC power supply . While the tool may appear to
work, the electrical components of the AC rated tool are likely to fail and create a hazard to
the operator.
Keep handles dry, clean and free from oil and grease . Slippery hands cannot safely control
the power tool.
Develop a periodic maintenance schedule for your tool . When cleaning a tool be careful
not to disassemble any portion of the tool since internal wires may be misplaced or
pinched or safety guard return springs may be improperly mounted . Certain cleaning
agents such as gasoline, carbon tetrachloride, ammonia, etc. may damage plastic parts.
Risk of injury to user. The power cord must only be serviced by a Factory Service Center or
Authorized SKIL Service Station.
