SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES FOR
DRILL / DRIVERS
repair person using only identical replacement
parts.
This will ensure that the safety of the power
tool is maintained.
Never service damaged battery packs.
Service
of battery packs should only be performed by the
manufacturer or authorised service providers.
•Wear ear protectors when impact drilling.
Exposure to noise can cause hearing loss.
•Use the auxiliary handle(s).
Loss of control can
cause personal injury.
•Hold the power tool by insulated gripping
surfaces, when performing an operation where
the cutting accessory or fasteners may contact
hidden wiring.
Cutting accessory or fasteners
contacting a “live” wire may make exposed metal
parts of the power tool “live” and could give the
operator an electric shock.
Safety instructions when using long drill bits
•Never operate at higher speed than the maximum
speed rating of the drill bit.
At higher speeds, the
bit is likely to bend if allowed to rotate freely without
contacting the workpiece, resulting in personal injury.
• Always start drilling at low speed and with the
bit tip in contact with the workpiece.
At higher
speeds, the bit is likely to bend if allowed to rotate
freely without contacting the workpiece, resulting in
personal injury.
• Apply pressure only in direct line with the bit
and do not apply excessive pressure.
Bits can
bend causing breakage or loss of control, resulting
in personal injury.
