Safety Warnings for Drills
Safety instructions for all operations
Wear ear protectors when impact drilling. Exposure to
u
noise can cause hearing loss.
Use the auxiliary handle(s). Loss of control can cause
u
personal injury.
Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces,
u
when performing an operation where the cutting ac-
cessory or fasteners may contact hidden wiring or its
own cord. Cutting accessory or fasteners contacting a
"live" wire may make exposed metal parts of the power
tool "live" and could give the operator an electric shock.
Safety instructions when using long drill bits
Never operate at higher speed than the maximum
u
speed rating of the drill bit. At higher speeds, the bit is
likely to bend if allowed to rotate freely without contact-
ing the workpiece, resulting in personal injury.
Always start drilling at low speed and with the bit tip
u
in contact with the workpiece. At higher speeds, the bit
is likely to bend if allowed to rotate freely without contact-
ing the workpiece, resulting in personal injury.
Apply pressure only in direct line with the bit and do
u
not apply excessive pressure.Bits can bend causing
breakage or loss of control, resulting in personal injury.
Additional safety warnings
Switch the power tool off immediately if the applica-
u
tion tool becomes blocked. Be prepared for high
torque reactions which cause kickback. The applica-
tion tool becomes blocked when it becomes jammed in
the workpiece or when the power tool becomes over-
loaded.
Hold the power tool securely. When tightening and
u
loosening screws be prepared for temporarily high torque
reactions.
Secure the workpiece. A workpiece clamped with
u
clamping devices or in a vice is held more secure than by
hand.
Use suitable detectors to determine if utility lines are
u
hidden in the work area or call the local utility com-
pany for assistance. Contact with electric lines can lead
to fire and electric shock. Damaging a gas line can lead to
explosion. Penetrating a water line causes property dam-
age or may cause an electric shock.
Always wait until the power tool has come to a com-
u
plete stop before placing it down. The application tool
can jam and cause you to lose control of the power tool.
