• DO NOT use under wet conditions or in presence of flammable liquids or gases.
• This is a professional power tool. DO NOT let children come into contact with the tool. Supervision is required
when inexperienced operators use this tool.
• Never modify the power tool or any part of it. Damage or personal injury could result.
To ensure safe operation and service of the drill, follow these instructions. Failure to observe these warnings can
result in electric shock, fire, severe injury or death.
1) Work Area Safety
a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
b) Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or
dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
c) Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.

2) Electrical Safety

a) Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded objects. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is
earthed or grounded.
b) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of
electric shock.
c) Do not abuse the battery charger cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging. Keep cord away
from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
d) When operating the battery charger outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord
suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
e) If operating the battery charger in a damp location is unavoidable, use a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI)
protected supply. Use of a GFCI reduces the risk of electric shock.

3) Personal Safety

a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power
tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while
operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
b) Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as dust mask, non-
skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the trigger lock is engaged before connecting to battery pack, picking up
or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch invites accidents.
d) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in
unexpected situations.
e) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving
parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
