2. ELE CTRICA L SAFET Y
a) Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never
modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter
plugs w ith eart hed (grou nded) pow er tools.
Unmodied plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk
of electric shock.
b) Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded
surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and

d) Do not a buse the co rd. Never u se the cord f or
carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep
cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving
parts.
Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of
electric shock.
e) When operating a power tool outdoors, use an
exte nsion cord s uitable f or outdoo r use. Use of a cord
suitable for outdoor use 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 tool while tired or under the inuence 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 pro tectio n. Protective equipment such as dust
mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing
protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce
personal injuries.

g) If devices are provided for the connection of dust
extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are
conne cted and pr operly us ed. Use of these devices
can reduce dust-related hazards.
4. PO WER TOOL US E 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 was
designed.
b) Do not use the power tool if the switch does
not tu rn it on and of f. 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
the battery pack from the power tool before making
any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing
power t ools. Such preventive safety measures reduce
the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
d) Store idle power tools out of the 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. Check for misalignment
or binding of moving parts, 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.
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are
less likely to bind and are easier to control.
g) Use t he power too l, access ories and t ool bits et c.

MAINTENANCE
Your power tool requires no additional lubrication or
maintenance. There are no user serviceable parts in
your power tool. Never use water or chemical cleaners
to clean your power tool. Wipe clean with a dry cloth.
Always store your power tool in a dry place. Keep the
motor ventilation slots clean. Keep all working controls
free of dust. Occasionally you may see sparks through
the ventilation slots. This is normal and will not damage
your power tool.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by
the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualied
persons in order to avoid a hazard.
HANDY HINTS
Always use sharp good quality drill bits and chisels. The
performance of the drill is dependant on the quality of the
bits used.
Reduce the pressure on the drill bit when it is about
to break through. This will prevent the drill from
jamming.
When drilling a large hole, rst drill a pilot hole using
a smaller drill bit.
Always apply pressure to your drill bit in a straight
line, and if possible at right angles to the workpiece.
When drilling holes into walls, oors etc., always
make sure that there are no live electrical wires, or
pipe work in the path of the bit.
Always operate your drill using both the handle and
the front handle.
Never change the operating mode whilst the drill is
running.
When using the product in the hammer only mode,
or when chiseling masonry, make sure that you wear
safety glasses and protective gloves.
Do not apply excessive pressure to the tool when
chiseling. Expressive force does not speed up the
work.
