into account the working conditions and the
work to be performed. Use of the power tool for
operations different from those intended could result
in a hazardous situation.
5) Service
a ) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified
repair person using only identical replacement
parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power
tool is maintained.
Additional Safety Rules for Drills
Use auxiliary handle(s), if supplied with the tool. Loss
•
of control can cause personal injury.
•
Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces,
when performing an operation where the cutting
accessory may contact hidden wiring or its own cord.
Cutting accessory contacting a "live" wire may make
exposed metal parts of the power tool "live" and could give
the operator an electric shock.
Use clamps or other practical way to secure and
•
support the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding
the work by hand or against your body is unstable and
may lead to loss of control.
•
Accessories must be rated for at least the speed
recommended on the tool warning label. Wheels and
other accessories running over rated speed can fly apart
and cause injury. Accessory ratings must be above listed
minimum wheel speed as shown on tool nameplate.
Wear safety goggles or other eye protection.
•
Hammering and drilling operations cause chips to fly.
Flying particles can cause permanent eye damage.
•
Keep handles dry, clean, free from oil and grease. it
is recommended to use rubber gloves. This will enable
better control of the tool.
Do not operate this tool for long periods of time.
•
Vibration caused by the operating action of this tool may
cause permanent injury to fingers, hands, and arms. Use
gloves to provide extra cushion, take frequent rest periods,
and limit daily time of use.
Additional Safety Information
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:
•
ANSI Z87.1 eye protection (CAN/CSA Z94.3),
•
ANSI S12.6 (S3.19) hearing protection,
•
NIOSH/OSHA/MSHA respiratory protection.
WARNING: Some dust created by power sanding,
sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction
activities contains chemicals known to the State
of California 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.

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.
WARNING: Use of this tool can generate and/
or disperse dust, which may cause serious and
permanent respiratory or other injury. Always use
NIOSH/OSHA approved respiratory protection
appropriate for the dust exposure. Direct particles
away from face and body.
WARNING: Always wear proper personal hearing
protection that conforms to ANSI S12.6 (S3.19)
during use. Under some conditions and duration
of use, noise from this product may contribute to
hearing loss.
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.
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.
An extension cord must have adequate wire size
•
for safety. The smaller the gauge number of the wire,
the greater the capacity of the cable, that is, 16 gauge
has more capacity than 18 gauge. An undersized cord
will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power
and overheating. When using more than one extension
to make up the total length, be sure each individual
extension contains at least the minimum wire size. The
following table shows the correct size to use depending on
cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use
the next heavier gauge. The lower the gauge number, the
heavier the cord.
