Do not run the tool while carrying it at your
side. A spinning bit could become entangled
with clothing and injury may result.
Do not use dull or damaged bits and
accessories.
Dull or damaged bits have a
greater tendency to bind in the workpiece.
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.
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.
Battery/Charger
Before using battery charger, read all
instructions and cautionary markings on (1)
battery charger, (2) battery pack, and (3)
product using battery.
Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces when
performing an operation where the cutting
tools may contact hidden wiring.
Contact
with a “live” wire will make exposed metal parts
of the tool “live” and shock the operator.
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.
Do not drill, fasten or break into existing
walls or other blind areas where electrical
wiring may exist.
If this situation is
unavoidable, disconnect all fuses or circuit
breakers feeding this worksite.
Battery tools are always in an operative
condition. Be aware of the possible hazards.
Always wear safety goggles or eye
protection when using this tool.
Secure the workpiece, never hold it in your
hand or across legs. The drilling action may
cause you to lose control of the
workpiece and injury may occur.
When installing a bit, insert the shank of the bit
well within the collet. If the bit is not inserted
deep enough, the grip of the collet over the bit is
reduced and the loss of control is increased.
