KWT-011-IMA21 Kielder WT Ltd
• Wear ear protectors.
Exposure to noise can
cause hearing loss.
• Wear eye protection to
protect from loose particles
which may be thrown up by
the impact motion of the tool.
• Wear a dust mask if the
work creates dust.
• Apply the power tool to the fastening
only when it is switched off. Rotating tool
inserts can slip.
• When storing or carrying the tool the
Forward/Reverse lever should be set to
the centre to lock the trigger and prevent
the tool being started accidentally.
• Hold the machine with a firm grip. High
reaction torque can occur while the tool is
in drilling, or high torque driving mode.
• Secure the workpiece. A workpiece is
held more securely in a vice than by hand.
• Always wait until the tool has stopped
completely before setting it down.
• Hold the tool by the insulated gripping
surface as the drill or driver bit may
contact hidden wiring. Contact with a
‘live’ wire will make exposed metal parts
of the tool ‘live’ and shock the operator.
• Be aware that this tool is always in an
operating condition as it does not have to
be plugged into an electrical socket.
Additional Safety & Working
Instructions
• When drilling or driving into walls
or floors, live electric wires may be
encountered. DO NOT TOUCH THE
CHUCK OR ANY FRONT METAL PARTS
OF THE DRILL. Hold the tool only by the
rubber handle to prevent an electric shock
in case you drill into a live wire.
• If the bit becomes jammed, turn off the
trigger switch to prevent an overload. This
can damage the battery pack or motor.
Use reverse motion to loosen jammed
bits.
• DO NOT operate the Forward/Reverse
lever when the trigger switch is on. The
battery will discharge rapidly and may
damage the tool.
• During charging the charger may
become slightly warm. This is normal. DO
NOT charge the battery for a long period.
• Do not strain the tool by holding the
speed control trigger halfway so that the
motor stops.
• Do not operate the speed selector
switch (LOW/HIGH) while pulling the
speed control trigger. This can cause the
rechargeable battery to wear quickly or
damage the mechanism of the motor.
