Protecting the environment
Separate collection. This product must not be
disposed of with normal household waste.
Should you find one day that your Stanley product needs
replacement, or if it is of no further use to you, do not
dispose of it with household waste. Make this product
available for separate collection.
Separate collection of used products and packaging
allows materials to be recycled and used again.
Re-use of recycled materials helps prevent
environmental pollution and reduces the demand for raw
materials.
Local regulations may provide for separate collection of
electrical products from the household, at municipal waste
sites or by the retailer when you purchase a new product.
Stanley provides a facility for the collection and recycling of
Stanley products once they have reached the end of their
working life. To take advantage of this service please return
your product to any authorised repair agent who will collect
them on our behalf.
You can check the location of your nearest authorised repair
agent by contacting your local Stanley office at the address
indicated in this manual. Alternatively, a list of authorised
Stanley repair agents and full details of our after-sales
service and contacts are available on the Internet at:

splinter.

wood.

and brass.
• Make an indentation using a centre punch at the centre
of the hole to be drilled in order to improve accuracy.
Screwdriving
