Residual Risks - Black & Decker REVDD12C Original Instructions Manual

Cutting accessory or fasteners contacting a "live" wire may
make exposed metal parts of the power tool "live" and
could give the operator an electric shock.
● Wear ear protectors when impact drilling. Exposure to
noise can cause hearing loss.
● Use clamps or another practical way to secure and
support the work piece to a stable platform. Holding
the work by hand or against your body leaves it unstable
and may lead to loss of control.
● Before driving fasteners into walls, floors or ceilings,
check for the location of wiring and pipes.
● The intended use is described in this instruction
manual.
● The use of any accessory or attachment or
performance of any operation with this tool other than
those recommended in this instruction manual may
present a risk of personal injury and/or damage to
property.
Safety instructions when using long drill bits
● Never operate at higher speed than the maximum
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 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
not apply excessive pressure. Bits can bend causing
breakage or loss of control, resulting in personal injury.
Safety of others
● This tool is not intended for use by persons (including
children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental
capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge,
unless they have been given supervision or instruction
concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible
for their safety.
● Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not
play with the appliance.
