Drill safety warnings

Safety instructions for all operations
1. Hold the power tool by insulated gripping
surfaces, when performing an operation where
the cutting accessory may contact hidden wir-
ing or its own cord. Cutting accessory contacting
a "live" wire may make exposed metal parts of the
power tool "live" and could give the operator an
electric shock.
Always be sure you have a firm footing. Be
2.
sure no one is below when using the tool in
high locations.
Hold the tool firmly.
3.
4. Keep hands away from rotating parts.
5. Do not leave the tool running. Operate the tool
only when hand-held.
Do not touch the drill bit or the workpiece
6.
immediately after operation; they may be
extremely hot and could burn your skin.
Some material contains chemicals which may
7.
be toxic. Take caution to prevent dust inhala-
tion and skin contact. Follow material supplier
safety data.
8. If the drill bit cannot be loosened even you
open the jaws, use pliers to pull it out. In such a
case, pulling out the drill bit by hand may result in
injury by its sharp edge.
Safety instructions when using long drill bits
1. Never operate at higher speed than the max-
imum speed rating of the drill bit. At higher
speeds, the bit is likely to bend if allowed to rotate
freely without contacting the workpiece, resulting
in personal injury.
2. Always start drilling at low speed and with the
bit tip in contact with the workpiece. At higher
speeds, the bit is likely to bend if allowed to rotate
freely without contacting the workpiece, resulting
in personal injury.
Apply pressure only in direct line with the bit
3.
and do not apply excessive pressure. Bits can
bend causing breakage or loss of control, resulting
in personal injury.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

FUNCTIONAL
DESCRIPTION
CAUTION:
Always be sure that the tool is
switched off and unplugged before adjusting or
checking function on the tool.
Switch action
CAUTION:
Before plugging in the tool, always
check to see that the switch trigger actuates
properly and returns to the "OFF" position when
released.
CAUTION:
Switch can be locked in "ON" posi-
tion for ease of operator comfort during extended
use. Apply caution when locking tool in "ON"
position and maintain firm grasp on tool.
► Fig.1: 1. Switch trigger 2. Lock button
To start the tool, simply pull the switch trigger. Tool
speed is increased by increasing pressure on the switch
trigger. Release the switch trigger to stop.
For continuous operation, pull the switch trigger, push
in the lock button and then release the switch trigger.
To stop the tool from the locked position, pull the switch
trigger fully, then release it.
► Fig.2: 1. Speed control screw 2. Higher 3. Lower
A speed control screw is provided so that maximum tool
speed can be limited (variable). Turn the speed control
screw clockwise for higher speed, and counterclockwise
for lower speed.
Reversing switch action
CAUTION:
Always check the direction of
rotation before operation.
CAUTION:
Use the reversing switch only after
the tool comes to a complete stop. Changing the
direction of rotation before the tool stops may dam-
age the tool.
► Fig.3: 1. Reversing switch lever
This tool has a reversing switch to change the direc-
tion of rotation. Move the reversing switch lever to the
position (A side) for clockwise rotation or to the posi-
tion (B side) for counterclockwise rotation.
