No. 690 Portable Power Drive

Disconnect the plug from the power source before making any adjustments, changing accessories or storing the tool. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally.

Store idle tools out of the reach of children and other untrained persons. Tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.

Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the tool’s operation. If damaged, have the tool serviced before using. Many acci- dents are caused by poorly maintained tools.

Use only accessories that are recommended for your tool. Accessories that may be suitable for one tool may become hazardous when used on another tool.

Keep handles dry and clean; free from oil and grease. Allows for better control of the tool.

Service

Tool service must be performed only by qualified repair personnel. Service or maintenance performed by unqualified repair personnel could result in injury.

When servicing a tool, use only identical replace- ment parts. Follow instructions in the Maintenance Section of this manual. Use of unauthorized parts or failure to follow maintenance instructions may create a risk of electrical shock or injury.

Power Drive Safety

The Power Drive is made to turn threaders. Follow instructions in this Operator’s Manual on proper use when threading. Other uses may increase the risk of serious injury.

When threading 3/4or larger pipe, secure Power

Drive using the No. 691 Support Arm. Hold Power

Drive firmly. If the Power Drive cannot be secured by a Support Arm, use other mechanical means. Resists high handle forces developed during use and prevents losing control of the tool.

Only use the aluminum gear case to secure the power drive. Using the motor housing or handle may result in damaging or breaking these parts.

Do not use dull or damaged dies. Sharp cutting tools require less torque and the Power Drive is easi- er to control.

Do not use this Power Drive if ON/OFF switch is broken. This switch is a safety device that lets you shut off the motor by releasing the switch.

Do not wear gloves or loose clothing when oper- ating Power Drive. Keep sleeves and jackets but- toned. Clothing can be caught, resulting in entangle- ment and serious injury.
