IMPORTANT: This appliance is not intended
for use by persons (including children) with re-
duced physical, sensory or mental capabilities
may be different or reduced, or lack of experi-
ence or knowledge, unless such persons are su-
pervised or trained to operate the product by
a person responsible for their safety. Children
should be supervised to ensure they do not use
the devices as toys.
TOOL USE AND CARE
Do not force the power tool. Use the correct
tool for the application. The correct tool will
do the job better and more safely at the rate
that it was designed to work at.
Do not use tools if switch does not turn it on
or off. Any tool that cannot be controlled with
the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
Disconnect the plug from the power source
before making any adjustments, changing ac-
cessories or storing the tool. This preventive
safety measures reduce the risk of accidental
starting of the tool.
When the power tool is not in use, store it out
of the reach of children, and do not allow in-
dividuals who are not familiar with the power
tool or these instructions to operate it. Power
tools are dangerous in the hands on untrained
users.
Maintain the power tool. Check for misalign-
ment or binding of moving parts, broken parts,
and any other condition that may affect the
operation of the power tool. If it is damaged,
have it repaired before using. Many accidents
are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
Check for misalignment or bonding of moving
parts, breakage parts, and any other condition
that may affect the tools operation. If you find
a damaged tool, take it to service before use it.
Use only accessories that are recommended by
the manufacturer of your model. Suitable ac-
cessories for one tool, may become hazardous
when are used on another tool.
Keep cutting tools, sharpened and clean. Cut-
ting tools in good condition with sharpened
edges, are less likely to stuck in workpieces or
easier to control.
Is recommendable to use a safety device suit-
able, such a thermal and differential switch
when you are using an electric equipment.
SERVICE
Tool service must be performed only by quali-
fied repair personnel. Service or maintenance
performed by unqualified personnel could re-
sult in a risk of injury.
SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES FOR
ROTARY HAMMERS
• Place the cord in rear of the tool, and keep it
far from the tool.
• Clamp work piece securely with clamping de-
vices or a vise.
• Operate the machine only with the auxiliary
handle.
• If there is considerable vibration or other de-
fects are detected in operation, stop the ma-
chine immediately and check the machine to
determine the cause.
• Hold your hammer drill firmly in both hands.
• Do not force your hammer drill, it will do a
better and safer job at the speed for which it
was designed.
• Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces
when performing an operation where the cut-
ting tool may contact hidden wiring or its own
cord.
• Wear gloves when handling hammer bits and
tool. Hammer bits and tools get hot during op-
eration. Gloves and frequent rest periods will
reduce risk of vibration damage to hands and
arms.
• Use suitable detectors to find hidden electric
cables or gas and water pipes.
• Sawdust and splinters must not be removed
while the machine is running.
• Do not pierce the motor housing as this could
damage the double insulation.
• Ensure that ventilation openings are kept
clear when working in dusty conditions.
• Do not operate the tool for long time, or the
quiver of the machine will hurt hands or arms.
