SPECIFIC SAFETY WARNINGS

1/ Safety instructions for all operations
A. Wear ear protectors when impact drilling. Exposure to noise can cause hearing loss.
B. Brace the tool properly before use. This tool produces a high output torque and without properly
bracing the tool during operation, loss of control may occur resulting in personal injury.
C. Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when performing an operation where the
cutting accessory may contact hidden wiring. Cutting accessory contacting a live» wire may make
exposed metal parts of the power tool «live» and could give the operator an electric shock.
2/ Safety instructions when using long drill bits
A. 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.
B. 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
C. 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.
Additional safety warnings
- Switch the power tool off immediately if the application tool becomes blocked. Be prepared
for high torque reactions which cause kickback. The application tool becomes blocked when it
becomes jammed in the workpiece or when the power tool becomes overloaded.
- 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.
- Use suitable detectors to determine if utility lines are hidden in the work area or call the local
utility company for assistance. Contact with electric lines can lead to fire and electric shock.
Damaging a gas line can lead to explosion. Penetrating a water line causes property damage or may
cause an electric shock.
- 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.
- Hold the power tool firmly with both hands and make sure you have a stable footing. The power
tool can be more securely guided with both hands.
- In order to prevent the power tool from being switched on unintentionally, always unlock the
lock on button. To do so, briefly press the On/Off switch.
- Application tools can become hot during operation. There is a risk of burns when changing the
application tool. Use protective gloves to remove the application tool.
