Additional Safety Warnings
GFCI and personal protection devices
like electrician’s rubber gloves and
footwear will further enhance your
personal safety.
Do not use AC only rated tools with a
DC power supply. While the tool may
appear to work, the electrical
components of the AC rated tool are
likely to fail and create a hazard to the
operator.
Keep handles dry, clean and free from
oil and grease. Slippery hands cannot
safely control the power tool.
Develop a periodic maintenance
schedule for your tool. When cleaning
a tool be careful not to disassemble
any portion of the tool since internal
wires may be misplaced or pinched or
safety guard return springs may be
improperly mounted. Certain cleaning
agents such as gasoline, carbon
tetrachloride, ammonia, etc. may
damage plastic parts.
Some dust created
by power sanding,
sawing, grinding, drilling, and other
construction activities contains
chemicals known to cause cancer,
birth defects or other reproductive
harm. Some examples of these
chemicals are:
• Lead from lead-based paints,
• Crystalline silica from bricks and
cement and other masonry
products, and
• Arsenic and chromium from
chemically treated lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies,
depending on how often you do this
type of work. To reduce your exposure
to these chemicals: work in a well
ventilated area, and work with approved
safety equipment, such as those dust
masks that are specially designed to
filter out microscopic particles.
WARNING
Be prepared for a strong reaction
torque when "seating" or removing a
screw. The driver motor housing will
tend to twist in the opposite direction
when "seating" or removing a screw.
Do not use dull or damaged bits and
accessories. Bits and accessories in
these conditions may cause the tool to
react in an unpredictable manner.
Check to see that keys and adjusting
wrenches are removed from the driver
before switching the tool "ON". Keys or
wrenches can fly away at high velocity
striking you or a bystander.
Do not run the tool while carrying it at
your side. A spinning exposed part of
the tool could become entangled with
clothing and injury may result.
When operating auto-feed attachment
consider where your hand is located. If it
is within a pinch point, strongly consider
an alternative position. Injuries occur
when hands or fingers are between
moving and stationary parts during the
pinching movement.
