WARNING!
Read all safety warnings, instructions,
illustrations and specifications 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.
■ Hold the power tool by insulated
gripping surfaces, when performing an
operation where the fastener may contact
hidden wiring. Fasteners contacting a
"live" wire may make exposed metal parts
of the power tool "live" and could give the
operator an electric shock.
■ Use suitable detectors to determine if
there are hidden supply lines or contact
the local utility company for assistance.
Contact with electric cables can cause fire
and electric shock. Damaging gas lines can
lead to explosion. Breaking water pipes
causes property damage.
■ Before any work on the power tool (e.g.
maintenance, tool change, etc.) as well
as during transport and storage, set
the rotational direction switch to the
middle position. There is risk of injury from
unintentionally pressing the on/off switch.
■ Hold the power tool securely. When
tightening and loosening screws be
prepared for temporarily high torque
reactions.
■ Secure the workpiece. A workpiece
clamped with clamping devices or in a vice
is held more secure than by hand.
■ Always wait until the power tool has
come to a complete stop before placing
it down. The application tool can jam and
cause you to lose control of the power tool.
