SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES FOR CORDLESS DRILL / DRIVERS

1. Know your cordless drill/driver. Read operator’s manual carefully. Learn its applications and limitations, as well as the specific potential hazards related to this tool. Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock, fire, or serious injury.

2. BE SURE that twist drill bits, screwdriver bits and other accessory attachments are properly and securely mounted in the chuck jaws BEFORE operating the drill / driver.

3. ALWAYS carefully inspect the material you are going to drill/drive into. Drilling/driving

into nails, pipes and electrical wires can cause serious personal injury.

4. HOLD DRILL / DRIVER by insulated gripping surfaces (handles) when performing an operation where the tool may drill/drive into hidden wiring. Contact with a “live” wire will make the exposed metal parts of the tool “live” and shock the operator.

5. NEVER hold the piece being drilled in your hands or across your legs. It is important to support and clamp the workpiece properly in order to minimize body exposure, bit binding, or loss of control.

6. Maintain a firm grip on the drill/driver to resist starting torque.

7. Use sharp accessory bits only. For drilling in WOOD use twist drill bits, spade bits, or power auger bits. For METAL use high-speed steel twist drill bits. For MASONRY use carbide-tipped bits. For PLASTIC use low drilling speeds for material with a low melting point. For SCREWDRIVING use the proper size screwdriving bit for the

screwdriving application such as Phillips, slotted and square recess bits.

8. BE SURE the material to be drilled is stationary, anchored or clamped firmly. If drilling thin material, use a back-up block to prevent damage to the material.

9. ONLY USE the specifically designated battery pack that was included with this

drill / driver and charging stand / transformer. Use of any other battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire.

10. Cordless tools do not have to be plugged into an electrical outlet; therefore, they are always in operating condition. Be aware of possible hazards when not using your battery operated tool or when changing accessories. Following this

rule will reduce the risk of electric shock, fire, or serious personal injury.

11. Do not place battery tools or their batteries near fire or heat. This will reduce the risk of explosion and possible injury.

12. Do not crush, drop or damage battery pack. Never use a battery pack or charging stand/transformer that has been dropped or received a sharp blow. A damaged battery is subject to explosion. Properly dispose of a dropped or damaged battery immediately.

13. Batteries vent hydrogen gas and can explode in the presence of a source of ignition, such as a pilot light. To reduce the risk of personal injury, never use any cordless product in the presence of open flame. An exploded battery can propel debris and chemicals. If exposed, flush with water immediately.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS cont.

SAFETY RULES FOR BATTERY CHARGER STAND/ TRANSFORMER cont.

3. Do not abuse the cord on the charging stand. Never carry the charging stand/ transformer by its power cord. Never pull the power cord to remove the transformer from the power outlet. Damage to the cord or charging stand/transformer could occur and create an electric shock hazard. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Replace damaged cords immediately. Damaged cords increase the risk of electric shock.

4. Make sure cord is located so that it will not be stepped on, tripped over, come in

contact with sharp edges or moving parts, heat, oil, or otherwise subjected to damage or stress. This will reduce the risk of accidental falls, which could cause

injury, and damage to the cord which could result in electric shock.

5. Keep cord and charging stand/transformer away from heat to prevent damage to

housing or internal parts.

6. Do not let gasoline, oils, petroleum-based products, etc. come in contact with plastic parts. They contain chemicals which can damage, weaken or destroy plastic.

7. An extension cord should not be used unless absolutely necessary. Use of improper extension cord could result in a risk of fire and electric shock. If an extension cord must be used, make sure: a) That pins on plug of extension cord are the same number, size and shape as those of transformer on charger, b) That extension cord is properly wired and in good electrical condition, and c) That you use a proper extension cord. ONLY use cords listed by Underwriters Laboratories (UL). Other extension cords can cause a drop in line voltage, resulting in a loss of power and overheating of charging stand/transformer. An AWG (American Wire Gauge) size of at least 14-gauge is recommended for an extension cord of 25-ft. or less in length. Use 12-gauge for an extension cord of 50-ft. Extension

cords 100-ft. or longer are not recommended.

8. INSPECT tool cords for damage. Do not operate charging stand with a damaged cord or

transformer, which could cause shorting and electric shock. Have damaged tool cords

repaired at a Sears Service Center.

9. Do not operate charging stand/transformer if it has received a sharp blow, been dropped, or otherwise damaged in any way. Take it to an authorized serviceman for electrical check to determine if the charging stand/transformer is in good working order.
