alcohol or medication.
A moment of inattention while operating power tools may
result in serious personal injury.
b) Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye
protection. Protective equipment such as dust mask,
non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection
used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal in-
juries.
c) 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 fi nger on the switch or energising
power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning
the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a ro-
tating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.
e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at
all times. This enables better control of the power tool in
unexpected situations.
f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery.
Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving
parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught
in moving parts.
g) If devices are provided for the connection of dust ex-
traction and collection facilities, ensure these are con-
nected and properly used. Use of dust collection can
reduce dust-related hazards.
4) POWER TOOL USE AND CARE
a) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool
for your application. The correct power tool will do the job
better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
b) Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it
on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with
the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
c) Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the
battery pack from the power tool before making any ad-
justments, changing accessories, or storing power tools.
Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of start-
ing the power tool accidentally.
d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and
do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or
these instructions to operate the power tool.
Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained us-
ers.
e) Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or bind-
ing of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other con-
dition that may affect the power tool's operation. If dam-
aged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many
accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edg-
es are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc., in
accordance 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.
5) 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 main-
tained.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
FOR DRILL/DRIVERS
• Avoid damage that can be caused by screws, nails
and other elements in your workpiece; remove them
before you start working
• Always check that the supply voltage is the same as
the voltage indicated on the nameplate of the tool
(tools with a rating of 230V or 240V can also be con-
nected to a 220V supply)
• Use only accessories with an allowable speed match-
ing at least the highest no-load speed of the tool
• This tool should not be used by people under the age
of 16 years
• Use completely unrolled and safe extension cords
with a capacity of 16 Amps (U.K. 13 Amps)
• Always keep the cord away from moving parts of the
tool
• If the cord is damaged or cut through while working,
do not touch the cord, but immediately disconnect the
plug
• Never use the tool when cord is damaged; have it re-
placed by a qualifi ed person
• If the drill bit becomes unexpectedly jammed (causing
a sudden, dangerous reaction), immediately switch off
the tool
• In case of electrical or mechanical malfunction, im-
mediately switch off the tool and disconnect the
plug•
Secure the workpiece (a workpiece clamped
with clamping devices or in a vice is held more se-
curely than by hand)
• Hold the power tool only by the insulated gripping
surfaces when performing an operation where the ac-
cessory may contact hidden wiring or its own power
cord (contact with a "live" wire will also make exposed
metal parts of the power tool "live" and shock the op-
erator)
• Use suitable detectors to find hidden utility lines or call
the local utility company for assistance (contact with
electric lines can lead to fi re or electrical shock; dam-
aging a gas line can result in an explosion; penetrating
a water pipe will cause property damage or an electri-
cal shock)
• Do not work materials containing asbestos (asbestos
is considered carcinogenic)
• Dust from material such as paint containing lead,
some wood species, minerals and metal may be
harmful (contact with or inhalation of the dust may
cause allergic reactions and/or respiratory diseases
to the operator or bystanders); wear a dust mask and
work with a dust extraction device when connectable
• Certain kinds of dust are classifi ed as carcinogenic
(such as oak and beech dust) especially in conjunc-
tion with additives for wood conditioning; wear a dust
mask and work with a dust extraction device when
connectable
• Follow the dust-related national requirements for the
materials you want to work with
• When you put away the tool, switch off the motor and
ensure that all moving parts have come to a complete
standstill
• Always disconnect plug from power source before
making any adjustment or changing any accessory
WHEN CONNECTING NEW 3-PIN PLUG (U.K. ON-
LY):
• Do not connect the blue (= neutral) or brown (= live)
