DRILL SAFETY WARNINGS
1. Use auxiliary handle(s), if supplied with the tool.
Loss of control can cause personal injury.
2. Hold 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.
ADDITIONAL SAFETY WARNINGS
1. Ensure that the power source to be utilized conforms
to the power requirements speci fi ed on the product
nameplate.
2. 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.
3. 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.
4. When mounting the drill bit, insert it fully into the drill
chuck and completely tighten the drill chuck with the
chuck wrench.
If mounting is not done porperly, it is very dangerous as
the drill bit may slip or loosen during operation.
5. Do not wear gloves made of stu ff liable to roll up such as
cotton, wool, cloth or string, etc.
6. Do not touch the bit during or immediately after
operation. The bit becomes very hot during operation
and could cause serious burns.
7. When placing the drill on the fl oor, make sure that the
drill has stopped completely.
8. Before drilling into a wall, fl oor or ceiling, thoroughly
con fi rm that no items such as electric cables or conduits
are buried inside.
9. When working in high position, take care of downword
direction.
10. Pressure
Drilling will NOT be accelerated by placing heavy
pressure on the drill. Such action will only result in a
damaged drill bit, decreased drilling e ffi ciency, and/or
shortened service life of the drill.
11. When drilling completely through the material:
When the drill bit bores completely through the material,
careless handling often results in a broken drill bit
or damage to the drill body itself due to the sudden
movement of the drill.
Always be alert and ready to release the pushing force
when drilling through the material.
12. 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.
13. The stopper rod can be fi xed on whichever side of the
housing.
14. A stopper assembly is not attached to products equipped
with a keyless chuck because the stopper rod would
come into contact with the keyless chuck.
A stopper assembly should never be mounted on any
product equipped with a keyless chuck in disregard of
the above warning because such action could result in a
serious accident.
15. 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.
16. RCD
The use of a residual current device with a rated residual
current of 30 mA or less at all times is recommended.
