Drill Safety Warnings
1.
Hold power tools by insulated gripping surfaces
when performing an operation where the cutting
tool may contact hidden wiring or its own cord.
Contact with a ″live″ wire will make exposed metal
parts of the tool ″live″ and shock the operator.
2. Let bit cool before touching, changing
or adjusting it. Bits heat up dramatically
while in use, and can burn you.
3. If the drill bit jams, release the trigger immediately;
drill torque can cause injury or break bit.
4. Maintain labels and nameplates on the tool.
These carry important safety information.
If unreadable or missing, contact Harbor
Freight Tools for a replacement.
5. Avoid unintentional starting. Prepare to
begin work before turning on the tool.
6. Do not lay the tool down until it has come to
a complete stop. Moving parts can grab the
surface and pull the tool out of your control.
7. When using a handheld power tool, maintain a firm grip
on the tool with both hands to resist starting torque.
8. WARNING: 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 filter
out microscopic particles.
