ADDITIONAL SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES

1. HOLD TOOL BY INSULATED GRIPPING SURFACES WHEN
PERFORMING AN OPERATION WHERE THE CUTTING TOOLS MAY
CONTACT HIDDEN WIRING OR ITS OWN CORD. Contact with a "live"
wire will make exposed metal parts of the tool "live" and will shock the
operator.
2. VERIFY the direction of rotation before starting the tool.
3. NEVER ATTEMPT TO CHANGE DIRECTION of rotation while switch is
"ON". Be sure switch is "OFF" and motor has completely stopped
before changing direction of rotation.
4. DO NOT use bits larger than those recommended. They increase the
chance of jamming. Large bits may also overload the drill and damage
the motor and gears.
5. USE ONLY the proper chuck key to tighten or loosen the chuck. Do not
use chuck if jaws or other parts are cracked or worn.
6. NEVER hold work in your hand, lap, or against other parts of your body
when drilling.
7. DO NOT use drill as a router or try to elongate or enlarge holes by
twisting the drill. Drill bits may break and cause injury.
8. DO NOT USE ON LADDER OR SCAFFOLD. Reaction torque may
cause loss of balance.
9. SOME WOOD CONTAINS PRESERVATIVES WHICH CAN BE TOXIC.
Take extra care to prevent inhalation and skin contact when working
with these materials. Request, and follow, any safety information
available from your material supplier.
10. WEAR EYE AND HEARING PROTECTION. ALWAYS USE SAFETY
GLASSES. Everyday eyeglasses are NOT safety glasses. USE CERTIFIED
SAFETY EQUIPMENT. Eye protection equipment should comply with ANSI
Z87.1 standards. Hearing equipment should comply with ANSI S3.19
standards.
11.
DUST OR OTHER AIRBORNE PARTICLES, INCLUDING WOOD DUST,
CRYSTALLINE SILICA DUST AND ASBESTOS DUST. Direct particles
away from face and body. Always operate tool in well ventilated area and
provide for proper dust removal. Use dust collection system wherever
possible. Exposure to the dust may cause serious and permanent
respiratory or other injury, including silicosis (a serious lung disease),
cancer, and death. Avoid breathing the dust, and avoid prolonged contact
with dust. Allowing dust to get into your mouth or eyes, or lay on your skin
may promote absorption of harmful material. Always use properly fitting
NIOSH/OSHA approved respiratory protection appropriate for the dust
exposure, and wash exposed areas with soap and water.
