the work by hand or against your body leaves it unstable
and may lead to loss of control.
• Wear safety goggles or other eye protection.
Hammering and drilling operations cause chips to fly.
Flying particles can cause permanent eye damage.
• Do not operate this tool for long periods of time.
Vibration caused by tool action may be harmful
to your hands and arms. Use gloves to provide extra
cushion and limit exposure by taking frequent rest periods.
• Drill bits may get hot during operation. Wear gloves
when touching them.

WARNING: Shock hazard. When drilling or driving into
walls, floors or wherever live electrical wires may be
encountered, DO NOT TOUCH ANY METAL PARTS OF
THE TOOL! Hold the tool only by the plastic handle(s) /
housing to prevent shock.
• Hold drill firmly with both hands to control the
twisting action of the drill. If your drill is equipped with a
side handle, always use the side handle.

WARNING: Drill may stall (if overloaded or improperly
used) causing a twist. Always expect the stall. Grip the
drill firmly to control the twisting action and prevent
loss of control which could cause personal injury. If a
stall does occur, release the trigger immediately and
determine the reason for the stall before re-starting.
• Always remove the battery pack when attaching or
removing accessories. When attaching accessories in
the drill chuck, it is important to securely tighten the chuck
using all three holes to prevent slippage. When using a
keyless chuck, hand tighten firmly.

Additional Safety Information


WARNING: Never modify the power tool or any part of
it. Damage or personal injury could result.

WARNING: ALWAYS use safety glasses. Everyday
eyeglasses are NOT safety glasses. Also use face or
dust mask if cutting operation is dusty. ALWAYS WEAR
CERTIFIED SAFETY EQUIPMENT:
• ANSI Z87.1 eye protection (CAN/CSA Z94.3),
• ANSI S12.6 (S3.19) hearing protection,
• NIOSH/OSHA/MSHA respiratory protection.

WARNING: Some dust created by power sanding,
sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities
contains chemicals known to the State of California to
cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm.
Some examples of these chemicals are:
• lead from lead-based paints,
• crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other
masonry products, and
• arsenic and chromium from
chemically-treated lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on
how often you do this type of work. To reduce your
exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated
area, and work with approved safety equipment, such
as those dust masks that are specially designed to filter
out microscopic particles.
• Wear protective clothing and wash exposed areas
with soap and water. Allowing dust to get into your
26
mouth, eyes, or lay on the skin may promote absorption of
harmful chemicals. Direct particles away from face and body.
• Use the appropriate dust extractor vacuum to remove
the vast majority of static and airborne dust. Failure
to remove static and airborne dust could contaminate the
working environment or pose an increased health risk to
the operator and those in close proximity.
• Use clamps or other practical ways to secure and
support the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding
the work by hand or against your body is unstable and may
lead to loss of control and injury.
• Air vents often cover moving parts and should be
avoided. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught
in moving parts.

CAUTION: When not in use, place tool on its
side on a stable surface where it will not cause
a tripping or falling hazard. Some tools with large
battery packs will stand upright on the battery pack
but may be easily knocked over.
