b) Use power tools only with specifically designated battery
packs. Use of any other battery packs may create a risk of
injury and fire.
c) When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from
other metal objects, like paper clips, coins, keys, nails,
screws, or other small metal objects, that can make a
connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the
battery terminals together may cause burns or a fire.
d) Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from
the battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally occurs,
flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek
medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause
irritation or burns.
6) 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 Instructions for Rotary
Hammers
• Hold power tools by insulated gripping surfaces when
performing an operation where the cutting tool may
contact hidden wiring. Cutting accessory contacting a "live"
wire may make exposed metal parts of the tool "live" and could
give the operator an electric shock.
• Wear ear protectors. Exposure to noise can cause hearing loss.
• Use auxiliary handles supplied with the tool. Loss of control
can cause personal injury.
• Be certain that the material being drilled does not conceal
electric or gas service and that their locations have been
verified with the utility companies.
• Use clamps or another practical way to secure and
support the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the
work by hand or against your body leaves it unstable and may lead
to loss of control.
• Wear safety goggles or other eye protection. Hammering
operations cause chips to fly. Flying particles can cause permanent
eye damage. Wear a dust mask or respirator for applications
that generate dust. Ear protection may be required for most
applications.
• Keep a firm grip on the tool at all times. Do not attempt to
operate this tool without holding it with both hands. It is
recommended that the side handle be used at all times. Operating
this tool with one hand will result in loss of control. Breaking
through or encountering hard materials such as re-bar may be
hazardous as well.
• Do not operate this tool for long periods of time. Vibration
caused by hammer action may be harmful to your hands and
arms. Use gloves to provide extra cushion and limit exposure by
taking frequent rest periods.
• Do not recondition bits yourself. Chisel reconditioning should
be done by an authorized specialist. Improperly reconditioned
chisels could cause injury.
• Wear gloves when operating tool or changing bits.
Accessible metal parts on the tool and bits may get extremely hot
during operation. Small bits of broken material may damage bare
hands.
• Never lay the tool down until the bit has come to a
complete stop. Moving bits could cause injury.
• Do not strike jammed bits with a hammer to dislodge them.
Fragments of metal or material chips could dislodge and cause
injury.
• Slightly worn chisels can be resharpened by grinding.
