Machine-specific safety notices for cordless
drills
– Wear ear protection when impact drilling. Expo-
sure to noise can result in loss of hearing.
– Use auxiliary handles supplied with the tool.
Loss of control can cause personal injury.
– Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces,
when performing an operation where the cut-
ting accessory or fastener may contact hidden
wiring. Cutting accessory or fasteners contacting
a "live" wire may make exposed metal parts of the
10
power tool "live" and could give the operator an
electric shock.
– Use suitable detectors to determine if utility
lines are hidden in the work area or call the lo-
cal utility company for assistance. Contact with
electric lines can lead to fire and electric shock.
Damaging a gas line can lead to explosion. Pene-
trating a water line causes property damage or
may cause an electric shock.
– Wear suitable protection: such as ear protec-
tion, safety goggles, a dust mask for work which
generates dust, and protective gloves when
working with raw materials and when changing
tools.
CAUTION! Power tool can block and cause
sudden kickback! Switch off immediately!
– Hold the power tool firmly in your hand. Adjust
the torque correctly for screwing. Be prepared
for a high reaction torque, which may cause the
power tool to turn and possibly lead to injury.
– Do not use the power tool in the rain or in damp
surroundings. Moisture in the power tool may
cause a short circuit and burning.
– Do not lock the on/off switch permanently!
