Causes and operator prevention of kickback
Kickback may occur when the nose or tip of the drilling tool touches
anobject,orwhenthewireorundergrowtharetrappedinthecut.
Either of these reactions may cause you to lose control of the
machine which could result in serious personal injury. Do not rely
exclusivelyuponthesafetydevicesbuiltintoyourmachine.Asa
productuser,youshouldtakeseveralstepstokeepyourdrillingjobs
free from accident or injury.
5063022059833_MNL_EN_V06.indd 125063022059833_MNL_EN_V06.indd 12 27 Sep 2023 17:06:0527 Sep 2023 17:06:05

13
Kickback is the result of tool misuse and/or incorrect operating
proceduresorconditionsandcanbeavoidedbytakingproper
precautionsasgivenbelow:
1. In case of kickback (rebound), release the throttle trigger
immediately and hold the product handle with both hands
to avoid losing control of the machine and causing danger.
2. Maintain a rm grip, with thumbs and ngers encircling
the product handles, with both hands on the machine and
position your body and arm to allow you to resist kickback
forces. Kickbackforcescanbecontrolledbytheoperator,if
proper precautions are taken. Do not let go of the product.
3. Only use replacement drilling tool specied by the
manufacturer. Incorrect replacement drilling tools may cause
drill breakage and/or kickback.
4. Ensure yourself that there are no loose objects lying
around in the working area.
5. Eliminate high grass, bushes etc. from the immediate
working area. They might be winded up by the rotating drilling
tool and block it.
6. Take especially care, if the ground contains many stones
or roots. An unattended stalling of the drilling tool might easily
cause an accident.
Vibration and noise reduction
To reduce the impact of noise and vibration emission, limit the
time of operation, use low-vibration and low-noise operating
modes as well as wear personal protective equipment.
Long-term exposure to noise can result in permanent hearing
impairment. So always use approved hearing protection.
Takethefollowingpointsintoaccounttominimizethevibrationand
noise exposure risks:
1. Duringaworkingday,youshalltakefrequentandadequate
breakstopreventdamagefromvibrationanddamagetothe
ears.
5063022059833_MNL_EN_V06.indd 135063022059833_MNL_EN_V06.indd 13 27 Sep 2023 17:06:0527 Sep 2023 17:06:05
