•
Wear ear protectors when impact drilling. Exposure to noise can cause hearing loss.
•
Accessories and tools get hot during operation. Wear gloves when touching them.
Air vents often cover moving parts and should be avoided. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught in moving
•
parts.
•
Do not operate this tool for long periods of time. Vibration caused by tool action may be harmful to your hands and arms.
Use gloves to provide extra cushion and limit exposure by taking frequent rest periods.
Residual Risks
In spite of the application of the relevant safety regulations and the implementation of safety devices, certain residual risks cannot be
avoided. These are :
- Impairment of hearing.
- Risk of squeezing fingers when changing accessories;
- Risk of personal injury due flying particles;
- Risk of burns due to accessories becoming hot during operation;
- Risk of personal injury due to prolonged use.
WARNING: ALWAYS use safety glasses. Everyday eyeglasses are NOT safety glasses. Also use face or dust mask if cutting operation is
dusty. ALWAYS WEAR CERTIFIED SAFETY EQUIPMENT.
WARNING: Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities contains chemicals known
to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:
•
lead from lead-based paints,
•
crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, and
•
arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber (CCA).
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals:
work in a well ventilated area, and work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed to filter out
microscopic particles.
•
Avoid prolonged contact with dust from power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities.
Wear protective clothing and wash exposed areas with soap and water. Allowing dust to get into your mouth, eyes, or lay
on the skin may promote absorption of harmful chemicals.
CAUTION: When not in use, place tool on its side on a stable surface where it will not cause a tripping or falling hazard. Some tools with
large battery packs will stand upright on the battery pack but may be easily knocked over.
