SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
1.
2.
Work area safety
Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
a.
Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the
b.
presence of ammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks
which may ignite the dust or fumes.
Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool.
c.
Distractions can cause you to lose control.
Electrical safety
Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any
a.
way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools.
Unmodied plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes,
b.
radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric
shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power
c.
tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging
d.
the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts.
Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
3.
When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for
e.
outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of
electric shock.
Personal safety
Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating
a.
a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the
inuence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while
operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
Use safety equipment. Always wear ANSI-approved eye
b.
proection. Safety equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety
shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions
will reduce personal injuries.
Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before
c.
plugging in. Carrying power tools with your nger on the switch or plugging in
power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A
d.
wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in
personal injury.
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This
e.
enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Keep your hair,
f.
clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or long
hair can be caught in moving parts.
If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection
g.
facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of these
devices can reduce dust-related hazards.
4.
Power tool use and care
Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application.
a.
The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it
was designed.
Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any power
b.
tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be
repaired.
Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery pack from the
c.
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.
Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow people
d.
unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool.
Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts,
e.
breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the power tools
operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many
accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with
f.
sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc., in accordance with these
g.
instructions and in the manner intended for the particular type of power tool,
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.
• Any power cord must be properly grounded. Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter
(GFCI) should also be implemented – it prevents sustained electrical shock.
10.
11.
12.
To reduce the risk of personal injury where the drill bit may contact hidden wiring,
hold the tool by its plastic insulated gripping surfaces. Contact with a “live” wire
will make exposed metal parts of the Cordless Drill/Driver “live” and will shock the
operator.
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
chemicals are:
Lead from lead-based paints
Crystalline silica from bricks and cement or other masonry products
Arsenic and chromium from chemically treated lumber
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 lter out microscopic particles. (California Health &
Safety Code § 25249.5, et seq.)
The warnings, precautions, and instructions discussed in this instruction manual
cannot cover all possible conditions and situations that may occur. It must be
understood by the operator that common sense and caution are factors which
cannot be built into this product, but must be supplied by the operator.
WARNINGWARNING
