OPERATIONAL SAFETY

Warning! The battery is normally sealed but in

event of the battery being damaged be aware that it contains acid, if you get any on your skin or in your eyes wash the affected parts with water immediately and seek medical advice as soon as possible.

Warning! Do not short circuit the battery it will

cause it to overheat, catch fire or even explode. To avoid this happening: Do not connect wires to the terminals of the battery. Do not expose the battery or drill to water, rain or damp atmospheres. Ensure that no metal objects (coins, nails etc) are caught in the battery housing or battery socket in the drill. Do not throw or dispose of the battery into water or fire.

Concentrate

Routine and repetition can lead to mistakes. Remember that a slight lack of concentration can result in serious injuries in a split second.

Keep work area clean

Cluttered areas and benches invite injuries.

Consider the work environment

Do not expose power tools to rain or use them in damp or wet locations. Keep work area well lit. Do not use power tools in the presence of flammable liquids, vapours or gases.

Guard against electric shock

This unit and its charger contain dangerous voltages. Use a RCD (residual current device) to provide protection against electrical shock. Prevent body contact with grounded surfaces (e.g. pipes, radiator, ranges or refrigerators).

Keep children and pets away

Do not let children or pets come into contact with the tool, extension cable or work area.

Do not force the tool

It will work better and safer at the rate for which it was intended.

Use the right tool

Do not force small tools or attachments to do the job of a heavy-duty tool. Do not use tools for purposes for which they were not intended; for example do not use a circular saw for cutting trees or logs.

Do not abuse cable

Never carry the tool by the cable or pull it to disconnect it from the power socket. Keep the cable away from heat, oil and sharp edges. Do not touch the metal plug pins when connecting or removing the plug.

Secure Work

Use clamps or a vice to hold work. It is safer than using your hand and it frees both hands to operate the tool

Extension cables

Use only three core earthed extension cables suitable for the power input of the tool (minimum cable size

1.5mm2). Plug into an earthed socket only. When using a cable reel unwind it fully. Do not use long extension cables.

Outdoors use

If the tool is suitable to be used outdoors, only use an extension cable intended for outdoor use and marked accordingly. Use a RCD (residual current device) to provide protection against electrical shock. Do not use in rain or damp conditions.

Connect a dust extraction device

Whenever there are facilities for fitting a dust or fume extraction system, make sure it is connected and used.

Use recommended accessories

The use of any other accessory or attachment other than recommended in the instructions or catalogue may present a risk of personal injury.
