•
Hold tool firmly with two hands.
Loss
of control can cause personal injury.
•
Wear safety goggles or other eye
protection.
Hammering and drilling
operations cause chips to fly. Flying particles
can cause permanent eye damage.
•
Bits, sockets and tools get hot during
operation.
Wear gloves when touching them.
•
Do not operate this tool for long periods
of time.
Vibration caused by tool action
may be harmful to your hands and arms.
Use gloves to provide extra cushion and
limit exposure by taking frequent rest
periods.
•
Wear appropriate personal hearing
protection during use.
Under some
conditions and duration of use, noise
from this product may contribute to
hearing loss.
WARNING
:
Impact wrenches are
not torque wrenches. Do not use this tool
for tightening fasteners to specified
torques. An independent, calibrated torque
measurement device such as a torque
wrench should be used when under
tightened or over tightened fasteners can
lead to the failure of the joint.
WARNING
:
ALWAYS
use safety
glasses. Everyday eyeglasses are NOT
safety glasses. Also use face or dust
mask if drilling operation is dusty.
ALWAYS WEAR CERTIFIED SAFETY
EQUIPMENT:
•
ANSI Z87.1 eye protection (CAN/
CPA Z94.3),
•
ANSI S12.6 (S3.19) hearing protection,
•
NOSH/OSHA respiratory protection.
WARNING
:
Always wear proper
personal hearing protection that
conforms to ANSI S12.6 (S3.19) during
use.
Under some conditions and duration
of use, noise from this product may
contribute to hearing loss.
WARNING
:
Some dust created by
power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling,
and other construction activities contains
chemicals known to the state of California to
cause cancer, birth defects or other
reproductive harm. Some examples of these
chemicals are:
•
lead from lead-based paints,
•
crystalline silica from bricks and
cement and other masonry products,
and
•
arsenic and chromium from
chemically-treated lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies,
depending on how often you do this type
of work. To reduce your exposure to
these chemicals: work in a well ventilated
area, and work with approved safety
equipment, such as those dust masks
that are specially designed to filter out
microscopic particles.
•
Avoid prolonged contact with dust
from power sanding, sawing, grinding,
drilling, and other construction
activities. Wear protective clothing
and wash exposed areas with soap
and water.
Allowing dust to get into
your mouth, eyes, or lay on the skin
may promote absorption of harmful
chemicals.
WARNING
:
Use of this tool can
generate and/or disperse dust, which
may cause serious and permanent
respiratory or other injury. Always use
NOSH/OSHA approved respiratory
protection appropriate for the dust
exposure. Direct particles away from face
and body.

• When using an extension cord, be
sure to use one heavy enough to carry
the current your product will draw. An
undersized cord will cause a drop in
line voltage resulting in loss of power
and overheating. The following table
shows the correct size to use depending
on cord length and nameplate ampere
rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier
gauge. The smaller the gauge number,
the heavier the cord.
