WARNING

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

1. Work Area Safety

a) Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or

dark areas invite accidents.

b) Do not operate power tools in explosive

atmospheres, such as in the presence of ﬂ ammable

liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.

c) Keep children and bystanders away while operating a

power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.

2. Electrical Safety

a) Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify

the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodiﬁ ed plugs

and matching outlets will reduce risk of electrical shock.

b) Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock

if your body is earthed or grounded.

c) Don’t expose power tools to rain or wet conditions.

Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of

electric shock.

d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord

away from heat, oil, sharp egdges or moving parts.

Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.

e) When operating a power tool outdoors, use an outdoor extension cord suitable for outdoor use.

Use of cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of

electric shock.

f) If operating a power tool in a damp location is

unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of

electric shock.

3. Personal Safety

a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not

use a power tool while you are tired or under the

inﬂ uence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.

b) Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye

protection. Protective equipment such as dust mask,

non-skid shoes, hard hat or hearing protection used for

appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.

Important Safety Instructions

WARNING: Read and understand all instructions. Failure to follow all instructions listed below,

may result in electrical shock, ﬁre and/or serious personal injury.

English

c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch

is in the off-position before connecting to power source and/or battery pack, picking up or

carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your

ﬁ nger on the switch or energizing power tools that

have the switch on invites accidents.

d) Remove any adjusting keys or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key that

is left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.

e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of

the power tool in unexpected situations.

f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or

jewelry. Keep your hair and clothing away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair

can be caught in moving parts.

g) If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure

these are connected and properly used. Use of

dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.

h) Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use of tools allow you to become complacent and

ignore tool safety principles. A careless action

can cause severe injury within a fraction of a second. i) Always use safety chain. Mounting can release.

4. Power Tool Use and Care

a) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. The correct power

tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for

which it is designed.

b) Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on or off. Any power tool that cannot be

controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.

c) Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or remove the battery pack, if detachable, from the power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories or storing

power tools. Such preventative safety measures

reduce the risk of starting the tool accidently.

(Continued on page 4)

Save all warnings and instructions

for future reference.

Always wear eye protection while using cutting tools, or in the vicinity of cutting.

The slug is ejected at the end of the cut. Do not aim cutter or arbor so that ejected slug may hit someone around, or below you.

To prevent electric shock, do not use power tools near wet areas, or where power tool may become wet.

Do not stare at operating light.

Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations and speciﬁ cations provided with

this power tool. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, ﬁ re

and/or serious injury.

WARNING:

Cutters are sharp. Wear gloves when installing or removing cutter from arbor. Do not grab a rotating cutter.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

SAFETY CHAIN INSTRUCTIONS

Outdoor Extension Cord Use

When tool is used outdoors, use only extension cords

intended for use outdoors and so marked.

Additional Safety Precautions

Arbor and cutter should never be used as a handhold or handle.Keep hands and clothing away from all moving parts. Do not use Hougen Cutters where ejected slug might cause

injury (slug ejected at end of cut). Also, adhere to all

operating instructions. Do not drill through any surface that may contain live electrical wiring. Drilling into a live wire

could cause exposed metal parts of the drill to be made live.

Remove chips wrapped around cutter and arbor after each hole. With motor off and power disconnected, grasp chips with leather gloved hand or pliers and pull while rotating counterclockwise. Should the cutter become jammed in the

work, stop the unit immediately to prevent personal injury.

Disconnect the drill from the power supply and loosen jammed cutter by turning the arbor counterclockwise. Never attempt to free the jammed cutter by starting the motor. Service at authorized repair center only.

Operating Near Welding Equipment

DO NOT operate this unit on the same work surface that

welding is being performed on. Severe damage to the unit, particularly the power cord, could occur. This could also

result in personal injury to the operator.

Circuit Breaker (If Applicable)

Changing of the circuit breaker to a higher amp rated

breaker, or bypassing the circuit breaker is not

recommended and will void product warranty.

Circuit Breaker Operation (If Applicable)

The circuit breaker is a thermal breaker. When it reaches

the higher temperature rating it will trip and cause the unit to

shut down. This is a protective device and can be reset after 5 to 10 minutes. To reset the breaker, press the breaker button back in. If it does not reset, let the unit cool a little

longer until you can push the button in and it stays in position.

d) Store idle power tools out of reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the

power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands

of untrained users.

e) Maintain power tools and accessories. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage

of parts and any other condition that may affect the power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many accidents are

caused by poorly maintained power tools.

f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Proper maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are

less likely to bind and are easier to control.

g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc.

in accordance with the instructions, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power till for operations

different from those intended could result in a hazard-

ous situation.

h) Keep handles and grasping surfaces, clean and

free from oil and grease. Slippery handles and

grasping surfaces do not allow for safe handling and

control of the tool in unexpected situations.

5. Service

a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualied repair person using only identical replacement

parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool

is maintained.

Safe Electrical Connection

Your Drill is rated for use on 115VAC or 230V at 50-60Hz. Do not attempt to use drill on power sources rated other than this.

Plugs and Receptacles

Wet electrical connections are shock hazards.

To prevent the cutting uid from traveling along the cord and contacting the plug or power outlet, tie a drip loop as shown. Also elevate extension cords or gang box connections.

Extension Cords

Use only 3-wire extension cords that have a 3-prong grounding type plug and 3-pole receptacles that accept the tool’s

plug. Replace or repair damaged cords. Make sure the conductor

size is large enough to prevent excessive voltage drop which will

cause loss of power and possible motor damage.
