SERVICE

21.

Tool service must be performed only by
qualified repair personnel.

 Service or main-

tenance performed by unqualified personnel
may result in a risk of injury.

When servicing a tool, use only identical
replacement parts. Follow instructions in
the Maintenance section of this manual.

Use of unauthorized parts or failure to follow
Maintenance instructions may create a risk of
shock or injury.

SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES

USB022-2

DO NOT let comfort or familiarity with product (gained from
repeated use) replace strict adherence to cordless drill safety
rules. If you use this tool unsafely or incorrectly, you can suffer
serious personal injury.

1.

Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces
when performing an operation where the
cutting tool may contact hidden wiring.

Contact with a “live” wire will also make
exposed metal parts of the tool “live” and
shock the operator.

2.

Be aware that this tool is always in an
operating condition, because it does not
have to be plugged into an electrical out-
let.

3.

Always be sure you have a firm footing.

4.

Be sure no one is below when using the
tool in high locations.

5.

Hold the tool firmly.

6.

Keep hands away from rotating parts.

7.

Do not leave the tool running. Operate the
tool only when hand-held.

8.

Do not touch the drill bit or the workpiece
immediately after operation; they may be
extremely hot and could burn your skin.

9.

Some material contains chemicals which
may be toxic. Take caution to prevent
working dust inhalation and skin contact.
Follow material supplier safety data.
