Safety Information

WARNING Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow the
warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
WARNING: This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including
children) with reduced, physical or mental capabilities or lack of experience
or knowledge unless they have been given supervision or instruction
concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
Children must be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
The term "power tool" in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded)
power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.
Work area safety
a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
b) Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the
presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks
which may ignite the dust or fumes.
c) Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose control.
Electrical safety
a) Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any
way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools.
Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
b) Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces, such as pipes,
radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric
shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a
power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or
unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or
moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
e) When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for
outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric
shock.
f) If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual
current device (RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of
electric shock.
Personal safety
a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when
operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or
under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of
inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
b) Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective
equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing
protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position
before connecting to power source and/or battery pack, picking up or
carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or
energising power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on.
A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in
personal injury.
e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair,
clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or
long hair can be caught in moving parts.
g) If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection
facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of dust
collection can reduce dust-related hazards.
Power tool use and care
a) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your
application. The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate
for which it was designed.
b) Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any
power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be
repaired.
c) Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery pack from
the power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or
storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of
starting the power tool accidentally.

d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow
persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate
the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
e) Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving
parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the
power tool's operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before
use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with
sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in accordance with
these instructions, taking into account the working conditions and the
work to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations different from
those intended could result in a hazardous situation.
Service
a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only
identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool
is maintained.
Additional Safety for
SDS Plus Drills
WARNING: If you suspect or discover asbestos is present in any area you
are working seek professional advice immediately. Removal of asbestos should
be done by a licensed contractor. Contact the HSE in the UK (www.hse.gov.uk)
or your national health and safety authority in your country for further information
about dealing with asbestos. European Directive 2009/148/EC provides additional
information related to exposure to asbestos at work.
• It is imperative to follow all national safety regulations concerning the type of
work being undertaken.
• Do not allow anyone under the age of 18 years to use this tool, and ensure that
operators are qualified and familiar with the operating and safety instructions
• Masonry drilling or chiselling can create sharp particles that will impact the
operator. Wear impact-resistant safety glasses and protective clothing, including
safety boots
• Core drills should only be used with SDS drills featuring a safety clutch to
prevent jamming, which could cause an injury to the operator
• If the safety clutch operates during use, quickly release the trigger and remove
the core drill or bit from the masonry surface being drilled. Do not continue work
until the cause of the safety clutch operating is understood
• Do not operate SDS drills whilst up a ladder or in any location where there is
a risk of falling. SDS drills are heavy and produce strong vibration and high
torque in use
• Wear suitable protective anti-vibration gloves that are non-fabric or coated
fabric to prevent loose strands of material catching in the rotating drill bit.
Discard gloves immediately if material is visibly frayed
• Drilling can produce large volumes of dust and debris that may be toxic. Wear
respiratory protection suitable for the work being undertaken. A minimum rating
of FFP2 is recommended
• SDS drills produce high volumes of noise and suitable ear protection must be
worn at all times while operating the tool
• SDS drills produce a very high level of vibration when operating in hammer or
chisel mode. Frequent breaks are advised
• Only use SDS Plus chisels or points with SDS drills that can disengage rotary
drilling mode
• Use metal and voltage detectors to locate concealed electric, water or gas lines.
Avoid touching live components or conductors
• Extension cable reels used with this tool must be completely unwound.
Minimum conductor cross section: 1.25mm
• Extension reels used outside should be designed for outdoor use and should
feature water-protected sockets and correct cable insulation
• When using an SDS drill outdoors, an RCD device must be used either by
connecting to a socket which incorporates an RCD, or through use of an inline
RCD
• Ensure that the chisel or drill bit is securely fixed in the chuck before operating
the tool. Insecure drill bits can be ejected from the machine, causing a hazard
• Ensure lighting is adequate
• Use both hands when operating this tool
• Always use the auxiliary handle supplied with the tool
• Do not place pressure on the tool - to do so could shorten its service life
• Drill bits become hot during operation. Allow to cool prior to handling
