▶ Safety instructions when
using long drill bits
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 contacting the
workpiece, resulting in personal injury.
Always start drilling at low speed and with
the bit tip in contact with the workpiece. At
higher speeds, the bit is likely to bend if
allowed to rotate freely without contacting the
workpiece, resulting in personal injury.
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 careful 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 cleaning agents such as
gasoline, carbon tetrachloride, ammonia, etc.
may damage plastic parts.
Ensure the switch is in the off position before
inserting battery pack. Inserting the battery
pack into power tools that have the switch on
invites accidents.
Apply pressure only in direct line with the bit
and do not apply excessive pressure. Bits can
bend causing breakage or loss of control,
resulting in personal injury.
Additional Safety Warnings
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.
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.
SAFETY IS A COMBINATION OF OPERATOR
COMMON SENSE AND ALERTNESS AT ALL
TIMES WHEN POWER TOOLS ARE BEING USED.
