h) Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, 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 fi ed
repair person using only identical replacement
parts.
This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is
maintained.
PRECAUTION
Keep children and in fi rm persons away.
When not in use, tools should be stored out of reach of
children and in fi rm persons.
DRILL SAFETY WARNINGS
1) Safety instructions for all operations
a) Use the auxiliary handle(s).
Loss of control can cause personal injury.
b) Hold the power tool by insulated gripping
surfaces, when performing an operation where
the cutting accessory may contact hidden wiring
or its own cord.
Cutting accessory contacting a “live” wire may make
exposed metal parts of the power tool “live” and
could give the operator an electric shock.
2) Safety instructions when using long drill bits
a) 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.
b) 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.
c) 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.
ADDITIONAL SAFETY WARNINGS
1. Make sure to securely hold the tool during operation.
Failure to do so can result in accidents or injuries.
( Fig. 10 )
2. Ensure that the power source to be utilized conforms
to the power requirements speci fi ed on the product
nameplate.
3. Ensure that the power switch is in the OFF position.
If the plug is connected to a receptacle while the power
switch is in the ON position, the power tool will start
operating immediately, which could cause a serious
accident.
4. When the work area is removed from the power source,
use an extension cord of su ffi cient thickness and rated
capacity. The extension cord should be kept as short as
practicable.
5. Hold the drill securely when using.
6. Do not wear gloves made of stu ff liable to roll up such as
cotton, wool, cloth or string, etc.
7. Prior to drilling into walls, ceilings or fl oors, ensure there
are no electric cables or conduits inside.
8. Drilling
○ When drilling, start the drill slowly, and gradually
increasing speed as you drill.
○ Always apply pressure in a straight line with the bit. Use
enough pressure to keep drilling, but do not push hard
enough to stall the motor or de fl ect the bit.
○ To minimize stalling or breaking through the material,
reduce pressure on drill and ease the bit through the last
part of the hole.
○ If the drill stalls, release the trigger immediately, remove
the bit from the work and start again. Do not click the
trigger on and o ff in an attempt to start a stalled drill. This
can damage the drill.
○ The larger the drill bit diameter, the larger the reactive
force on your arm.
Be careful not to lose control of the drill because of this
reactive force.
To maintain fi rm control, establish a good foothold,
use side handle, hold the drill tightly with both hands,
and ensure that the drill is vertical to the material being
drilled.
○ Precautions on boring
The drill bit may become overheated during operation;
however, it is su ffi ciently operable. Do not cool the drill
bit in water or oil.
○ Caution concerning immediately after use
Immediately after use, while it is still revolving, if the Drill
is placed on a location where considerable ground chips
and dust have accumulated, dust may occasionally be
absorbed into the drill mechanism. Always pay attention
to this undesirable possibility.
9. When the power tool is used with a hook fi xed to it, pay
attention to the following points:
○ Before hanging the main unit from the waist belt, make
sure that the drill has come to a complete stop.
While it is suspended from the waist belt, the power plug
must be disconnected from the power source.
○ Do not walk about with the power tool hanging from the
waist belt.
○ In the case of operation in a high place, it is dangerous
to drop the tool accidentally. If the hook is deformed or
hung from the wrong position, there is danger that the
hook will slip o ff and the tool will fall.
Be careful to avoid danger.
○ In making a through hole, the power tool sometimes
shakes violently when the workpiece is pierced, from
example. Be careful you are not hurt by the hook even if
such situation happens.
