Black & Decker KR7532 Original Instructions Manual page 5

c. Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the
battery pack from the power tool before making any
adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power
tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of
starting the power tool accidentally.
d. 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.
e. Maintain power tools and accessories. 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.
f. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less
likely to bind and are easier to control.
g. Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in
accordance with these instructions, taking into
account the working conditions and the work to be
performed.
Use of the power tool for operations different from those
intended could result in a hazardous situation.
h. Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean and
free from oil and grease. Slippery handles and
grasping
surfaces do not allow for safe handling and control of
the tool in unexpected situations.
5. Service
a. 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 power tool safety warnings
Warning! Additional safety warnings for rotary
and chiselling hammers
Wear ear protectors. Exposure to noise can cause hear-
u
ing loss.
Use auxiliary handles supplied with the tool. Loss of
u
control can cause personal injury.
Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces,
u
when performing an operation where the cutting
accessory may contact hidden wiring or its own
cord. Cutting accessory contacting a "live" wire may make
exposed metal parts of the power tool "live" and could give
the operator an electric shock.
(Original instructions)
Brace the tool properly before use. This tool produces
u
a high output torque and without properly bracing the tool
during operation, loss of control may occur resulting
in personal injury.
Safety instructions when using long drill bits
Never operate at higher speed than the maximum
u
speed rating of the drill bit. At higher speeds, the bit is
likely to bend if allowed to rotate freely without contacting
the workpiece, resulting in personal injury.
Always start drilling at low speed and with the bit tip
u
in contact with the workpiece. At higher speeds, the bit
is likely to bend if allowed to rotate freely without
contacting the workpiece, resulting in personal injury.
Apply pressure only in direct line with the bit and do
u
not apply excessive pressure. Bits can bend causing
breakage or loss of control, resulting in personal
injury.
Never use a chisel accessory in rotary mode. The
u
accessory will bind in the material and rotate the drill.
Use clamps or another practical way to secure and
u
support the workpiece to a stable platform.
Holding the work by hand or against your body leaves it
unstable and may lead to loss of control.
Before drilling into walls, floors or ceilings, check for the
u
location of wiring and pipes.
Avoid touching the tip of a drill bit just after drilling, as it
u
may be hot.
The intended use is described in this instruction manual.
u
The use of any accessory or attachment or performance
of any operation with this tool other than those recom-
mended in this instruction manual may present a risk of
personal injury and/or damage to property.
Use a face or dust mask whenever the operations may
u
produce dust or flying particles.
Safety of others
This appliance is not intended for use by persons (includ-
u
ing children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental
capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless
they have been given supervision or instruction concern-
ing use of the appliance by a person responsible for their
safety.
Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not
u
play with the appliance.
Residual risks.
Additional residual risks may arise when using the tool which
may not be included in the enclosed safety warnings. These
risks can arise from misuse, prolonged use etc.
Even with the application of the relevant safety regulations
and the implementation of safety devices, certain residual
risks can not be avoided. These include:
