Safety warnings

2.1 General power tool safety warnings
WARNING! Read all safety warnings, in­
structions, illustrations and specifica­
tions provided with this power tool. Failure to
follow all instructions listed below may result in
electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future
reference.
The term "power tool" in the warnings refers to
your mains-operated (corded) power tool or
battery-operated (cordless) power tool.
Follow the operating manual for the charger
and the battery pack.
2.2 Machine-specific safety notices
Wear ear protectors when impact drilling.
-
Exposure to noise can cause hearing loss.
- Use the auxiliary handle(s). Loss of control
can cause personal injury.
- Hold the power tool by insulated gripping
surfaces, when performing an operation
where the cutting accessory or fasteners
may contact hidden wiring. Cutting acces­
sory contacting a "live" wire may make ex­
posed metal parts of the power tool "live"
and could give the operator an electric
shock.
Use appropriate detection devices to look
-
for any hidden supply lines or consult your
local utility company. If the insertion tool
makes contact with live cables, it can result
in fire and electric shock. Damage to a gas
pipe can lead to an explosion. Penetration
of a water pipe can result in damage to
property.
-
Wear suitable personal protective equip­
ment: Ear protection, safety goggles, a dust
mask for work that generates dust.
CAUTION! Power tool can jam and cause
sudden kickback! Switch off immediately!
- Hold the power tool firmly in your hand.
Make sure the speed is adjusted correctly
when screwdriving. Be prepared for a high
reaction torque, which may cause the pow­
er tool to turn and possibly lead to injury.
- Do not use the power tool in the rain or in
damp surroundings. Moisture in the power
tool may cause a short circuit and fire.
- Do not lock the on/off switch in place per­
manently.
