Safety Warnings for Drills and Screwdrivers
• Hold power tool by insulated gripping sur-
faces, when performing an operation where
the cutting accessory or fastener may con-
tact hidden wiring.
Cutting accessory and fas-
teners contacting a live wire may make exposed
metal parts of the power tool live and could give
the operator an electric shock.
Additional safety notes
• Prior to starting work, use appropriate tool to
determine whether there are any hidden sup-
ply lines are located on the area you are work-
ing in. If in doubt, ask the relevant supply ser-
vices.
Contact with power lines may cause fire
and electrical shock. Damaging a gas pipe may
cause an explosion. Damaging a water pipe
leads to considerable property damage and may
cause electrical shock.
• Immediately switch off the power tool when it
becomes blocked. Be prepared for sudden
forces occurring which may cause kickback.
The insert tool blocks, for example, due to over-
loading or tilting.
• Hold the power tool firmly. When tightening
and undoing screws, high forces may occur for
a short time.
• Secure the work piece. Use tensioning equip-
ment or a vice to secure the work piece to help
prevent kickback or uncontrolled flying of the
work piece (e.g. when getting jammed in the
work piece).
• Never set the power tool down before the tool
has come to a completed standstill. The
rotating tool may come into contact with the sur-
face and cause you to loose control over the
power tool.
• Do not open the battery. The battery may be
damaged as a result of improper actions.
• Do not expose the battery to heat, fire, water
and damp. There is a risk of explosion.
• In the event of damage or incorrect use of the
battery, vapours may escape. Make sure that
the ventilation is good and, if you have any
medical complaints, consult a doctor.
These
vapours may irritate the air passages and cause
illness.
• Never attempt to recharge batteries that are
not designated rechargeable. There is a risk of
fire and explosion.
• The battery may only be used in conjunction
with this power tool. Other power tools may
overload the battery and thus damage it.
• Only batteries authorised by the manufac-
turer with the values listed on the type plate
of this power tool may be used.
The use of a
different battery may cause a risk of injuries and
property damage as a result of an exploding bat-
tery.
• Only chargers authorised by the manufac-
turer with the values listed on the type plate
of this battery may be used.
The use of a dif-
ferent charger may cause a risk of injuries and
property damage as a result of an exploding bat-
tery.
• Keep your workplace clean. Mixed contami-
nation by various materials is particularly dan-
gerous. Light metal dust (e.g. aluminium) can
ignite or explode easily.
• Inform yourself about the materials to be pro-
cessed and any dusts and vapours that may
be generated. Do not breath in even small
amounts of the generated dusts and
vapours.
When processing certain materials
(various metals, minerals or woods as well as
weather protecting paints) damaging/poisonous
dusts may be generated which can cause aller-
gic reactions or serious illness. Do not breathe
these dusts and vapours in and avoid all contact.
Materials containing asbestos may only be pro-
cessed by specialists.
• Set the switch for right/left rotation to the
central position before carrying out any work
on the power tool (e.g. maintenance, chang-
ing a tool) and during transportation of stor-
age of the item.
Unintentional activation of the
On/Off switch may cause a risk of injury.
• First activate the power tool after it has been
placed on the screw. If the inserted tool is
already rotating when you attempt to position it,
it may slip.
• Do not leave tools, objects or cable laying
around in the vicinity of the device. If you
stumble, you may injure yourself on the power
tool.
• When working with the device make sure the
area is well lit. Bad vision can result in injuries
caused by the power tool.
• Only use drill and screwdriver bits authorised
by the manufacturer. The use of different drill
and screwdriver bits may cause a risk of injuries
and damages to the power tool. Make sure that
the drills and screwdriver bits are securely
installed before switching on the device.
• Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting
edges are less likely to jam and are easier to con-
trol.
• Prevent overheating of the device and the
work piece. Excess heat may damage the tool
and the device.
• Never use power tool near flammable materi-
als. Sparks may set fire to these materials.
• Keep the handles dry and free of grease.
Slippery handles can lead to accidents.
• Do not use accessories that have not been
designed and recommended by the manufac-
turer for this specific power tool.
Just
because you are able to attach an accessory to
your power tool this does not guarantee that it is
safe to use.
• The permitted revolutions of the tool must be
at least as high as the highest revolutions
specified on the power tool.
Accessories that
rotate faster than they are permitted to may
break and fly and thus cause injuries.
• Remember that moving parts may also be
located behind ventilation and venting slots.
