SAFETY RULES
1) Wear ear protectors when using
the tool for extended periods.
Prolonged exposure to high inten-
sity noise can cause hearing loss.
) Be aware that this tool is always in
an operating condition, since it does
not have to be plugged into an elec-
trical outlet.
3) When drilling into walls, floors, etc.,
“live” electrical wires may be encoun-
tered. DO NOT TOUCH THE CHUCK
OR ANY FRONT METAL PARTS OF
THE TOOL! Hold the tool only by the
plastic handle to prevent electric shock
in case you drill into a “live” wire.
4) If the bit becomes jammed, immedi-
ately turn the main switch off to pre-
vent an overload which can damage
the battery pack or motor.
Use reverse motion to loosen jammed
bits.
5) During charging, the charger may
become slightly warm. This is nor-
mal. Do not leave the battery in
the charger for more than 4 hours
