General safety rules WARNING. Read all instructions. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury. The term “power tool” in all of the warnings listed below refers to your mains operated (corded) power tool or battery operated (cordless) power tool.
Ensure that the lighting is adequate. • Do not put pressure on the drill, such that it slows the motor down. Allow the drill bit to cut without pressure. You will get better results and you will be taking better care of your tool.
• Support the work properly. • If you are interrupted when operating the drill, complete the process and switch off before looking up. • Periodically check that all nuts, bolts and other fixings are properly tightened.
• To reduce the risk of an electric shock, unplug the charger from the power supply before attempting to clean it. Removing the battery alone does not reduce the risk. • Never attempt to connect two chargers together. • Do not store or use the tool and battery pack in locations where the temperature may reach or exceed 104°F (40°C) such as alongside sheds or metal structures in the summer.
