SAFETY INFORMATION
Specific Safety Warnings for Impact Wrench
• Hold power tools 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
may make exposed metal parts of the power tool "live" and shock the operator.
• Wear ear protectors when impact drilling. Exposure to noise can cause hearing loss.
• Secure the workpiece. Clamping devices or a vise will hold the workpiece in place better
and more safely than holding it by hand.
• Always wait until the tool has come to a complete stop before placing it down. The tool insert
can jam and lead to loss of control over the power tool.
• Before performing any kind of work on the tool (e.g., maintenance, tool change, etc.), as well
as when transporting and storing it, always set the rotational direction switch to the center
position. Unintentional activation of the On/Off switch may result in personal injury.
• When working with the power tool, always hold it firmly with both hands and provide a
secure stance. The power tool is guided more securely with both hands.
