Important Safety Instructions
1. Read All Instructions
2. Grounding Instructions
This tool should be grounded while in use to protect the
operator from electric shock. The tool is equipped with
a 3-conductor cord and a 3-prong grounding type plug
to fit the proper grounding type receptacle. The green
(or green and yellow) conductor in the cord is the
grounding wire. Never connect the green (or green and
yellow) wire to a live terminal. Your unit is for use on
115V, and has a plug that looks like that shown in sketch
(A). An adapter, see sketches (B) and (C), is available
for connecting sketch (A) type plugs to 2-prong recep
tacles. The green-colored rigid ear, lug, or the like,
extending from the adapter must be connected to a
permanent ground, such as a properly grounded outlet
box.
Note: Use of a grounding adapter is prohibited in
Canada by Part I of the Canadian Electrical Code.
3. Safe Electrical Connection
Your HMD100 is rated for use on 120VAC at 50-60Hz.
Do not attempt to use drill on power sources rated other
than this. Wet electrical connections are shock hazards.
To prevent the cutting fluid from traveling along the cord
and contacting the plug or power outlet, tie a drip loop
as shown above. Also elevate extension cords or gang
box connections.
4. Extension Cords
Use only 3-wire extension cords that have 3-prong
grounding type plugs and 3-pole receptacles that
accept the tool's plug. Replace or repair damaged
cords. Make sure the conductor size is large enough
to prevent excessive voltage drop which will cause
loss of power and possible motor damage.
5. Do Not Force Tool
It will do the job better and faster at the rate for which
it was intended.
6. Keep Work Area Clean
Cluttered areas and benches invite injuries.
Keep dirt and chips from under magnet and
Rotabroach Cutter area. Do not attach magnet to
surfaces where paint is thick or peeling.
7. Consider Work Area Environment
Do not expose tool to rain.
Do not use tool in damp or wet locations.
Keep work area well lit.
Do not use tool in presence of flammable liquids or
gases. Disconnect from power source when changing
cutters or maintaining drill.
8. Guard Against Electric Shock
Prevent body contact with grounded surfaces. For
example: pipes, radiators, ranges, refrigerator
enclosures.
9. Keep Children Away
Do not let visitors contact tool. All visitors should be
kept away from work area while in use.
10. Store Idle Tools
When not in use, tools should be stored in a dry, and
high or locked-up place — out of reach of children.
11. Use Right Tool
Do not force small tool or attachment to do the job
of a heavy duty tool.
Do not use tool for purpose not intended — for
example — do not use a circular saw for cutting tree
limbs or logs.
12. Secure Work
Use clamps or a vise to hold work. It is safer than
using your hand and it frees both hands to operate
tool.
13. Always Wear Safety Glasses or Goggles
14. Dress Properly
Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. They might
entangle with spinning chips or get caught in moving
parts. Rubber gloves and non-skid footwear are
recommended when working outdoors. Wear sturdy
leather gloves when working indoors.
Wear protective hair covering to contain long hair.
