Always check that the material being drilled is secure and clamped in place
if
necessary to prevent any movement. An unstable work piece can cause the drill bit to bind,
causing of control and injury.
•
Never hold the work piece in your hand, lap or against other parts of the body
when
drilling. Contact with the drill bit can cause injury.
•
Always position the cord away from the rotating bit and do not wrap the cord around
your arm or wrist
. If the cord is caught by the rotating bit or chuck you may lose control of
the drill and become entrapped by the cord, causing personal injury.
•
When using the drill, do not position yourself between the tool and a wall or post
. If
the bit jams or becomes bound in the work piece, the sudden reaction torque of the tool could
crush your hand, arm or leg against a stationary object.
•
If the bit jams or binds in the work,
immediately release the switch trigger to prevent
personal injury. Unplug the drill from the power source and then remove the drill bit from the
work. Do not attempt to free the jammed drill bit by repeatedly starting and stopping the drill
motor; this action could result in injury.
•
Do not use dull or damaged bits and accessories.
Dull or damaged bits are more likely to
bind in the work piece.
•
Do not use bits larger than those recommended
. They are more likely to jam, causing
loss of tool control and personal injury. Large bits may also overload the drill, causing motor
and gear damage.
•
When removing the drill bit from the tool avoid contact with skin
. Allow sufficient time
for the bit to cool down or use proper protective gloves to handle the bit or accessory. Drill
bits and accessories may be hot after prolonged use.
