4. Always wear safety goggles or
eye protection when using this
tool. Use a dust mask or respirator
for applications which generate
dust.
5. Secure the material being drilled.
Never hold it in your hand or
across legs. Unstable support can
cause the drill bit to bind causing
loss of control and injury.
6. Disconnect battery pack from
tool or place the switch in the
locked or off position before
making any assembly, adjustments
or changing accessories. Such
preventive safety measures
reduce the risk of starting the tool
accidentally.
7. Position yourself to avoid being
caught between the tool or side
handle and walls or post. Should
the bit become bound or jammed
in the work, the reaction torque of
the tool could crush your hand or
leg.
8. If the bit becomes bound in the
workpiece, release the trigger
immediately, reverse the direction
of rotation and slowly squeeze the
trigger to back out the bit. Be ready
for a strong reaction torque. The
drill body will tend to twist in the
opposite direction as the drill bit is
rotating.
9. Do not grasp the tool or place
your hands too close to the
spinning chuck or drill bit. Your
hand may be lacerated.
10. When installing a drill bit, insert
the shank of the bit well within the
jaws of the chuck. If the bit is not
inserted deep enough, the grip of
the jaws over the bit is reduced and
the loss of control is increased.
11. Do not use dull or damaged bits
and accessories. Dull or damaged
bits have a greater tendency to
bind in the workpiece.
12. When removing the bit from the
tool avoid contact with skin and
use proper protective gloves when
grasping the bit or accessory.
Accessories may be hot after
prolonged use.
13. Check to see that keys and
adjusting wrenches are removed
from the drill before switching the
tool “ON”. Keys or wrenches can
fly away at high velocity striking
you or bystander.
14. Do not run the dill while
carrying it at your side. A spinning
drill bit could become entangled
with clothing and injury may result.
15. Avoid bouncing and snagging
the wheels, discs or brushes
especially when working corners,
sharp edges, etc. This can cause
loss of control and kickback.
16. Position the tether clear of
rotating bit. Do not wrap the tether
around your arm or wrist. If you
lose control and have the tether
wrapped around your arm or wrist,
it may entrap you and cause injury.
