When using the tool, use safety equipment including safety
glasses and ear protection. If operating the tool causes
discomfort in any way, stop immediately and review your
method of use.
Dispose of used packaging material carefully or store it out of the reach of
children. There is a danger of suffocation!
Persons with limited physical, sensorial or mental abilities are not allowed
to use the unit, unless they are supervised and briefed for their safety by
a qualified person.
Battery chargers are for indoors use only. Ensure that the power supply
and charger are protected against moisture at all times.
Use metal and voltage detectors to locate concealed electric, water or gas
lines. Avoid touching live components or conductors.
Ensure that the lighting is adequate.
Ensure that the drill bit is securely fixed in the chuck. Insecure drill bits can
be ejected from the machine causing a hazard.
Ensure that the drill bit is not in contact with the workpiece prior to
starting up the tool.
Before drilling, check that there is sufficient clearance for the drill bit
under the workpiece.
Do not exert pressure on to the tool. To do so would shorten its service
life.
Drill bits get hot during operation; allow cooling prior to handling them.
Never use your hands to remove sawdust, chips or waste close by the bit.
If you are interrupted when operating the cordless drill, complete the
process and switch off before looking up.
Where possible, use clamps or a vice to hold your work.
Examine the chuck regularly for signs of wear or damage. Have damaged
parts repaired by a qualified service centre.
