ADDITIONAL SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES

1.
Hold tool 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 also make exposed metal parts of the tool "live"
and shock the operator.
2.
DO NOT use bits larger than those recommended. Larger bits increase
the chance of jamming, and will overload the drill, damaging the motor and
gears.
3.
Do not use chuck if jaws or other parts are cracked or worn.
4.
VERIFY the drill's rotation before starting the drill.
5.
Never attempt to change direction of rotation while switch is "ON". To
do so may damage interlock feature built into switch. Be sure switch is "OFF"
and motor has completely stopped before changing direction of rotation.
6.
NEVER hold workpiece in your hand, lap, or against other parts of your
body during operation.
7.
DO NOT use drill as a router, or try to elongate or enlarge holes by
twisting the drill. Drill bits can break and can cause injury.
8.
APPLY FORWARD FORCE on the pistol grip handle ONLY, and ONLY
with your hands. When using an auxiliary handle, grasp it with one hand to
resist rotational force.
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, all 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.
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.
Use of this tool can generate and disburse dust or other
