SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES

DO NOT let comfort or familiarity with product (gained
from repeated use) replace strict adherence to
screwdriver safety rules. If you use this power tool
unsafely or incorrectly, you can suffer serious
personal injury.
1. Hold power tools by insulated gripping surfaces
when performing an operation where the cutting
tool may contact hidden wiring or its own cord.
Contact with a "live" wire will make exposed metal
parts of the tool "live" and shock the operator.
2. Always be sure you have a firm footing. Be sure
no one is below when using the tool in high
locations.
3. Hold the tool firmly.
4. Keep hands away from rotating parts.
5. Do not touch the bit or the workpiece immediately
after operation; they may be extremely hot and
could burn your skin.
