Global Machinery Company RHD1500 - Manual (Page 6)

• When using the drill, use safety equipment including
safety glasses or shield, ear defenders, and protective
clothing including safety gloves. Wear a dust mask if
the drilling operation creates dust.
WARNING. Before connecting a tool to a power source
(mains socket power point receptacle, outlet, etc.) be sure
that the voltage supply is the same as that specified on
the nameplate of the tool. A power source with a voltage
greater than that specified for the tool can result in
serious injury to the user, as well as damage to the tool.
If in doubt, do not plug in the tool. Using a power source
with a voltage less than the nameplate rating is harmful
to the motor.
The tool must be used only for its prescribed purpose.
Any use other than those mentioned in this Manual will
be considered a case of misuse. The user and not the
manufacturer shall be liable for any damage or injury
resulting from such cases of misuse.
To use this tool properly, you must observe the safety
regulations, the assembly instructions and the operating
instructions to be found in this Manual. All persons who
use and service the machine have to be acquainted with
this Manual and must be informed about its potential
hazards. Children and frail people must not use this
tool. Children should be supervised at all times if they
are in the area in which the tool is being used. It is
also imperative that you observe the accident prevention
regulations in force in your area. The same applies for
general rules of occupational health and safety.
The manufacturer shall not be liable for any changes
made to the tool nor for any damage resulting from
such changes.
Even when the tool is used as prescribed it is not
possible to eliminate all residual risk factors. The
following hazards may arise in connection with the tool’s
construction and design:
• Damage to the lungs if an effective dust mask is not worn.
• Damage to hearing if effective ear defenders are not worn.
Wear goggles
Wear earmuffs
Wear a breathing mask
The tool must be used only for its prescribed purpose.

Additional safety rules for rotary hammers
• Do not use the rotary hammer in damp or wet areas.
• Do not attempt to use the rotary hammer for a purpose
on which it was not designed. The rotary hammer will
give much better service if you do not use excessive
force. Excessive force will overheat the rotary hammer
and damage internal parts. Excessive force may cause
you to over balance causing damage and/or injury.
• Be prepared for the initial torque reaction of the drill.
• Chisel bits and drill bits may be thrown out of the
machine accidentally and cause serious injury. Before
starting to work always check that the chisel or drill bit
is properly locked in the chuck.
• Examine the chuck regularly for signs of wear or
damage. Never start up a rotary hammer tool until it is
pressed against a work piece(bracket, wall, ceiling, etc).
