Injuries caused by prolonged use of a tool. When using
any tool for prolonged periods ensure you take regular
breaks.
u
Impairment of hearing.
u
Health hazards caused by breathing dust developed when
using your tool (example:- working with wood, especially
oak, beech and MDF.)
Vibration
The declared vibration emission values stated in the technical
data and the declaration of conformity have been measured
in accordance with a standard test method provided by
EN 60745 and may be used for comparing one tool with
another. The declared vibration emission value may also be
used in a preliminary assessment of exposure.
Warning! The vibration emission value during actual use of
the power tool can differ from the declared value depending
on the ways in which the tool is used. The vibration level may
increase above the level stated.
When assessing vibration exposure to determine safety
measures required by 2002/44/EC to protect persons regularly
using power tools in employment, an estimation of vibration
exposure should consider, the actual conditions of use and the
way the tool is used, including taking account of all parts of the
operating cycle such as the times when the tool is switched off
and when it is running idle in addition to the trigger time.
Labels on tool
The following pictograms are shown on the tool along with the

Safety instructions when using long drill bits
u
Never operate at higher speed than the maximum
speed rating of the drill bit. At higher speeds, the bit is
likely to bend if allowed to rotate freely without contacting
the workpiece, resulting in personal injury.
u
Always start drilling at low speed and with the bit tip
in contact with the workpiece. At higher speeds, the bit
is likely to bend if allowed to rotate freely without
contacting the workpiece, resulting in personal injury.
u
Apply pressure only in direct line with the bit and do
not apply excessive pressure. Bits can bend causing
breakage or loss of control, resulting in personal
injury.
u
Never use a chisel accessory in rotary mode. The
accessory will bind in the material and rotate the drill.
u
Use clamps or another practical way to secure and
support the workpiece to a stable platform.
Holding the work by hand or against your body leaves it
unstable and may lead to loss of control.
u
Before drilling into walls, floors or ceilings, check for the
location of wiring and pipes.
u
Avoid touching the tip of a drill bit just after drilling, as it
may be hot.
u
The intended use is described in this instruction manual.
The use of any accessory or attachment or performance
of any operation with this tool other than those recom-
mended in this instruction manual may present a risk of
personal injury and/or damage to property.
u
Use a face or dust mask whenever the operations may
produce dust or flying particles.
Safety of others
u
This appliance is not intended for use by persons (includ-
ing children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental
capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless
they have been given supervision or instruction concern-
ing use of the appliance by a person responsible for their
safety.
u
Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not
play with the appliance.
Residual risks.
Additional residual risks may arise when using the tool which
may not be included in the enclosed safety warnings. These
risks can arise from misuse, prolonged use etc.
Even with the application of the relevant safety regulations
and the implementation of safety devices, certain residual
risks can not be avoided. These include:
u
Injuries caused by touching any rotating/moving parts.
u
Injuries caused when changing any parts, blades or ac -
cessories.
