Specific Safety Rules
• Use auxiliary handle(s), if supplied with the tool. Loss
of control can cause personalinjury.
• Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces,
when performing an operation where the cutting
accessory may contact hidden wiring. Cutting
accessory contacting a “live” wire may make exposed
metal parts of the power tool “live” and could give the
operator an electricshock.
• When not in use, place tool on its side on a stable
surface where it will not cause a tripping or falling
hazard. Some tools with large battery packs will stand
upright but may be easily knockedover.
• Use clamps or another practical way to secure and
support the work piece to a stable platform. Holding
the work by hand or against your body leaves it unstable
and may lead to loss ofcontrol.
• Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves away from air
vents. Air vents often cover moving parts in which these
items can becaught.
• Hold tool firmly with two hands. Use auxiliary
handle if provided. If auxiliary handle not provided,
grip tool at bottom of battery. Loss of control can cause
personalinjury..
• When attaching accessories in the drill chuck, hand
tighten the keyless chuckfirmly.

used) causing a twist. Always expect the stall. Grip
the drill firmly with both hands to control the twisting
action and prevent loss of control which could cause
personal injury. If a stall does occur, release the trigger
immediately and determine the reason for the stall
before re-starting.

Additional Safety Information
WARNING: ALWAYS use safety glasses. Everyday
eyeglasses are NOT safety glasses. Also use face or
dust mask if cutting operation is dusty. ALWAYS WEAR
CERTIFIED SAFETYEQUIPMENT:
• ANSI Z87.1 eye protection (CAN/CSA Z94.3),
• ANSI S12.6 (S3.19) hearing protection,
• NIOSH/OSHA/MSHA respiratoryprotection.
WARNING: Some dust created by power sanding,
sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction
activities contains chemicals known to the State
of California to cause cancer, birth defects or
other reproductive harm. Some examples of these
chemicalsare:
• lead from lead-based paints,
• crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other
masonry products, and
• arsenic and chromium from chemicallytreatedlumber.
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 microscopicparticles.
• Avoid prolonged contact with dust from power
sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other
construction activities. Wear protective clothing and
wash exposed areas with soap and water. Allowing
dust to get into your mouth, eyes, or lay on the skin may
promote absorption of harmfulchemicals.
WARNING: Use of this tool can generate and/
or disperse dust, which may cause serious and
