Hammer Safety Warnings
Safety instructions for all operations

performing an operation where the cutting accessory may
contact hidden wiring.
could give the operator an electric shock.
Safety instructions when using long drill bits with
rotary hammers
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.
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.
Wear a dust mask.
Some applications may produce a considerable amount of dust,
such as impact and diamond core drilling. Use a dust collection
device such as a vacuum cleaner to collect the dust.
Secure your workpiece with a clamping device. A workpiece
clamped with clamping devices or in a vice is held more secure
than by hand.
Always wait until the product has come to a complete stop before
placing it down. The tool insert can jam and lead to loss of control
over the power tool.
Do not open the battery. Danger of shortcircuiting.
Protect the battery against heat, e.g., against continuous intense
In case of damage and improper use of the battery, vapours may
be emitted. Provide for fresh air and seek medical help in case of
complaints. The vapours can irritate the respiratory system.
Use the battery only in conjunction with your Würth power
tool. This measure alone protects the battery against dangerous
overload.
Use only original Würth batteries with the voltage listed on the
nameplate of your power tool. When using other batteries, e. g.
imitations, reconditioned batteries or other brands, there is danger
of injury as well as property damage through exploding batteries.
Use only original Würth accessories.
