4. Power tool use and care
1) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. The correct power
tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
2) Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any power tool that can not be
controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
3) Disconnect the plug from the power source before making any adjustments, changing
accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the
power tool accidentally.
4) Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the
power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands
of untrained users.
5) 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.
6) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges
are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
7) 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
intended could result in a hazardous situation.
5. Battery tool use and care
1) 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.
2) 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.
3) Use power tools only with specifically designated battery packs. Use of any other battery packs
may create a risk of injury and fire.
4) 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.
5) 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
1) 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 RULES FOR YOUR CORDLESS DRILL
1) Wear ear protectors with cordless drill. Exposure to noise can cause hearing loss.
2) Use auxiliary handles supplied with the tool. Always hold the tool with both hands. Loss of control
can cause personal injury.
3) Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation where the cutting
tools may contact hidden wiring. Contact with a "live" wire may make exposed metal parts of the
power tool "live" and shock the operator.
4) Always wear safety goggles or eye protection when using this tool. Use a dust musk or respirator
for applications which generate dust.
