01 General Power Tool Safety
WARNING! Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations
and specifications provided with this power tool. Failure to follow
all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or
serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your mains-operat-
ed (corded) power tool or battery–operated (cordless) power tool.
Work area safety
• Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite
accidents.
• Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as
in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power
tools create sparks which may ignite thedust or fumes.
• Keep children and bystanders away while operating a
powertool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.
Electrical safety
• Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modi
fy the plug
in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed
(grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching
outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
• Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces, such
as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an
increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or
grounded.
• Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water
entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
01
Personal safety
• Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense
when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while
you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or
medication. A moment of inattention while operating power
tools may result in serious personal injury.
• Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye
protection. Protective equipment such as a dust mask, non-skid
safety shoes, hard hat or hearing protection used for appropriate
conditions will reduce personal injuries.
• Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the
off–position before connecting to power source and/or battery
pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with
your finger on the switch or energising power tools that have the
switch on invites accidents.
• Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power
tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the
power tool ma
y result in personal injury.
02
• Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling
or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil,
sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords
increase the risk of electric shock.
• When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord
suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use
reduces the risk of electric shock.
• If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use
a residual current device (RCD) protected supply. Use of an
RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.
• Instructions for class IIl appliances state that it must only be
supplied at SELV
03
• Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected
situations.
• Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep
your hair and clothing away from moving parts. Loose clothes,
jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
• If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction
and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and
properly used. Use of dust collection can reduce dust-related
hazards.
• Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use of tools allow
you to become complacent and ignore tool safety principles. A
careless action can cause severe injury within a fraction of a
second.
• This product is not intended for use by persons (including
children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities,
or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been
given supervision or instruction concerning use of the product
by a person responsible for their safety

11
Battery tool use and care
• Recharge only with the charger specified by the manufacturer.
A charger that is suitable for one type of battery pack may
create a risk of fire when used with another battery pack.
• Use power tools only with specifically designated battery
packs. Use of any other battery packs may create a risk of injury
and fire.
• 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.
• 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 bat
tery may cause irritation or burns.
• Do not use a battery pack or tool that is damaged or modified.
Damaged or modified batteries may exhibit unpredictable
behavior resulting in fire, explosion or risk of injury.
12
• Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in accor-
dance with these instructions, taking into account the working
conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool
for operations different from those intended could result in a
hazardous situation.
• Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean and free from
oil and grease. Slippery handles and grasping surfaces do not
allow for safe handling and control of the tool in unexpected
situations.
13
• Do not expose a battery pack or tool to fire or excessive
temperature. Exposure to fire or temperature above 130°C may
cause explosion.
• Follow all charging instructions and do not charge the battery
pack or tool outside the temperature range specified in the
instructions. Charging improperly or at temperatures outside
the specified range may damage the battery and increase the
risk of fire.
Service
• 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.
• Never service damaged battery packs. Service of battery packs
should only be performed by the manufacturer or authorized
service providers.
Safety instructions when using long drill bits
• Never operate at higher speed than the maximum 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.
• 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
al
lowed to rotate freely without contacting the workpiece,
resulting in personal injury.
• Apply pressure only in direct line with the bit and do not apply
excessive pressure. Bits can bend causing breakage or loss of
control, resulting in personal injury.
14
Safety warning of Rotary Tool Kit
Hold the tool by the insulated gripping surface if the cutting and
drillingaccessories could contact hidden wires duringoperation.
Were cuttingand drilling accessories to contact live wires, exposed
metal parts mayconduct the electricity and cause electric shock to
the operator.
Safety Instructions for Drill/Driver
Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when
performing an operation where the cutting accessory or
fasteners 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.
Additional safety information
• Secure the workpiece. A workpiece clamped with clamping
devices or in a vice is held more secure than by hand.
• Always wait until the power tool has come to a complete stop
before placing it down. The application tool can jam and cause
you to lose control of the power tool.
• Switch the power tool off immediately if the application tool
becomes blocked. Be prepared for hi
gh torque reactions which
cause kickback. The application tool becomes blocked when it
becomes jammed in the workpiece or when the power tool
becomes overloaded.
• Use suitable detectors to determine if there are hidden supply
lines or contact the local utility company for assistance.
Contact with electric cables can cause fire and electrical shock.
Damaging gas lines can lead to explosion. Breaking water pipes
causes property damage.
15
• Hold the power tool securely. When tightening and loosening
screws be prepared for temporarily high torque reactions.
• In case of damage and improper use of the battery, vapours
