•
Store idle power tools out of the reach of
children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with
the power tool or these instructions to operate
the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the
hands of untrained users.
•
Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment
or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and
any other condition that may affect the power
tool's operation. If damaged, have the power tool
repaired before use. Many accidents are caused
by poorly maintained power tools.
•
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges
are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
•
Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits
etc. in accordance with these instructions, taking
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.
Battery tool use and care
•
Recharge only with the charger speciffied by
the manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for
one type of battery pack may create a risk of fi re
when used with another battery pack.
•
Use power tools only with specifically designated
battery packs. Use of any other battery packs
may create a risk of injury and fi re.
•
When battery pack is not in use, keep it away
from other metal objects, like paper clips, coins,
keys, nails, screws or other small metal objects,
that can make a connection from one terminal to
another. Shorting the battery terminals together
may cause burns or a fire.
•
Under abusive conditions, liquid may be
ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If contact
accidentally occurs, fl ush with water. If liquid
contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help.
Liquid ejected from the battery may cause
irritation or burns.
Service
Have your power tool serviced by a qualifi ed
repair person using only identical replacement
parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power
tool is maintained.
Safety
Warnings
Screwdrivers
•
Wear ear protectors when impact drilling.
Exposure to noise can cause hearing loss.
for
Drills
and
• Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces
when performing an operation where the cutting
accessory or fastener may contact hidden wiring.
Cutting accessory and fasteners contacting a
"live" wire may make exposed metal parts of the
power tool "live" and could give the operator an
electric shock.
• Use auxiliary handle(s), if supplied with the tool.
Loss of control can cause personal injury.
• Use appropriate detectors to determine if utility
lines are hidden in the work area or call the local
utility company for assistance. Contact with
electric lines can lead to fi re and electric shock.
Damaging a gas line can lead to explosion.
Penetrating a water line causes property
damage.
• Switch off the power tool immediately when the
tool is jams. Be prepared for high reaction torque
that can cause kickback.
– The power tool is subject to overload or
– It becomes wedged in the workpiece.
• Hold the machine with a firm grip. High reaction
torque can briefl y occur while driving in and
loosening screws.
• Secure the workpiece. A workpiece clamped
with clamping devices or in a vice is held more
secure than by hand.
• Always wait until the machine 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.
• Do not open the battery. Danger of short
circuiting.
Protect the battery against heat, e. g.,
against continuous intense sunlight,
fire, water, and moisture. Danger of explosion.
• In case of damage and improper use of the
battery, vapours may be emitted. Ventilate the
area and seek medical help in case of complaints.
The vapours can irritate the respiratory system.
• Use the battery only in conjunction with your
PROMAKER
tool. This measure alone protects
®
the battery against dangerous overload.
• The battery can be damaged by pointed objects
such as nails or screwdrivers or by force applied
externally. An internal short circuit can occur and
the battery can burn, smoke, explode or overheat.
