SAFETY WARNINGS
Safety instructions for all operations
1. Wear ear protectors. Exposure to noise can
cause hearing loss.
2. Use auxiliary handle(s), if supplied with the
tool.Lossofcontrolcancausepersonalinjury.
3. Hold the power tool by insulated gripping
surfaces, when performing an operation where
the cutting accessory may contact hidden
wiring.Cuttingaccessory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 with
rotary hammers
1. 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.
2. Apply pressure only in direct line with the bit
and do not apply excessive pressure. Bits can
bend, causing breakage or loss of control, result-
inginpersonalinjury.
Additional safety warnings
1. Wear a hard hat (safety helmet), safety glasses
