Product Familiarisation power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing
power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power
tool accidentally.
d) 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.

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

cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.

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.

Additional Safety for SDS Drills
• Do not allow anyone under the age of 18 years to use this tool, and ensure that

• Masonry drilling or chiselling can create sharp particles that will impact the operator.
Wear impact-resistant safety glasses and protective clothing, including safety boots
• Core drills should only be used with SDS drills featuring a safety clutch to prevent
jamming, which could cause an injury to the operator
• Do not operate SDS drills whilst up a ladder or in any location where there is a risk of
falling. SDS drills are heavy and produce strong vibration and high torque in use
• Wear suitable protective anti-vibration gloves that are non-fabric or coated fabric
to prevent loose strands of material catching in the rotating drill bit. Discard gloves
immediately if material is visibly frayed
• Drilling can produce large volumes of dust and debris that may be toxic. Wear
respiratory protection suitable for the work being undertaken. A minimum rating of
FFP2 is recommended
• SDS drills produce high volumes of noise and suitable ear protection must be worn at all
times while operating the tool
• SDS drills produce a very high level of vibration when operating in hammer or chisel
mode. Frequent breaks are advised
• Use metal and voltage detectors to locate concealed electric, water or gas lines. Avoid
touching live components or conductors
• Extension cable reels used with this tool must be completely unwound. Minimum
conductor cross section: 1.25mm2
