d) 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
battery may cause irritation or burns.
6) SERVICE
a) 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.
Drill/Driver/Hammerdrill Safety
Warnings
• Wear ear protectors when impact drilling. Exposure to
noise can cause hearing loss.
• Use auxiliary handle(s), if supplied with the tool. Loss of
control can cause personal injury.
• Hold 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.
• Use clamps or other practical way to secure and support
the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the work by
hand or against your body is unstable and may lead to loss of
control.
• Wear safety goggles or other eye protection. Hammering
and drilling operations cause chips to fly. Flying particles can
cause permanent eye damage.
• Accessories and tool may get hot during operation.
Wear gloves when handling them if performing heat producing
applications such as hammerdrilling and drilling metals.
• Do not operate this tool for long periods of time. Vibration
caused by hammer action may be harmful to your hands and
arms. Use gloves to provide extra cushion and limit exposure by
taking frequent rest periods.
• Air vents often cover moving parts and should be
avoided. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught in
moving parts.
WARNING:
ALWAYS
eyeglasses are NOT safety glasses. Also use face or dust mask
if cutting operation is dusty. ALWAYS WEAR CERTIFIED SAFETY
EQUIPMENT:
• ANSI Z87.1 eye protection (CAN/CSA Z94.3),
• ANSI S12.6 (S3.19) hearing protection,
• NIOSH/OSHA/MSHA respiratory protection.
WARNING: Some dust created by power sanding, sawing,
grinding, drilling, and other construction activities contains
chemicals known to the State of California 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.
• Avoid prolonged contact with dust from power sanding,
sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction
activities. Wear protective clothing and wash exposed
areas with soap and water. Allowing dust to get into your
mouth, eyes, or lay on the skin may promote absorption of
harmful chemicals.
WARNING: Use of this tool can generate and/or disperse dust,
which may cause serious and permanent respiratory or other
injury. Always use NIOSH/OSHA approved respiratory protection
appropriate for the dust exposure. Direct particles away from face
and body.
