Safety Rules for Cordless Hammer Drills
n. Do not use dull or damaged bits and
accessories. Dull or damaged bits have
a greater tendency to bind in the work-
piece.
o. When removing the bit from the tool
avoid contact with skin and use proper
protective gloves when grasping the bit
or accessory. Accessories may be hot af-
ter prolonged use.
p. Check to see that keys and adjusting
wrenches are removed from the drill
before switching the tool "ON".
or wrenches can fly away at high velocity
striking you or a bystander.
q. Do not run the tool while carrying it at
your side. A spinning drill bit could be-
come entangled with clothing and injury
may result.
GFCI and personal protection devices like
electrician's rubber gloves and footwear will
further enhance your personal safety.
Do not use AC only rated tools with a DC
power supply. While the tool may appear to
work, the electrical components of the AC
rated tool are likely to fail and create a hazard
to the operator.
Develop a periodic maintenance schedule
for your tool. When cleaning a tool be care-
ful not to disassemble any portion of the
tool since internal wires may be misplaced
or pinched or safety guard return springs
may be improperly mounted. Certain clean-
ing agents such as gasoline, carbon tetra-
chloride, ammonia, etc. may damage plastic
parts.
Ensure the switch is in the off position be-
fore inserting battery pack. Inserting the
battery pack into power tools that have the
switch on invites accidents.

Safety instructions when
using long drill bits
a. Never operate at higher speed than the
maximum speed rating of the drill bit. At
higher speeds, the bit is likely to bend if
allowed to rotate freely without contact-
ing the workpiece, resulting in personal
injury.
b. Always start drilling at low speed and
with the bit tip in contact with the work-
piece. At higher speeds, the bit is likely
to bend if allowed to rotate freely with-
out contacting the workpiece, resulting in
personal injury.
c. Apply pressure only in direct line with
the bit and do not apply excessive pres-
sure. Bits can bend causing breakage or
loss of control, resulting in personal in-
jury.
Some dust created by
power sanding, sawing,
grinding, drilling, and other construction ac-
tivities 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.
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.
