Safety Rules for Cordless Impact Drivers
Hold tools by insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation where the cutting tool may contact hidden wiring. Contact with a "live" wire will make exposed metal parts of the tool "live" and shock the operator.
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.
Do not drill, fasten or break into existing walls or other blind areas where electrical wiring may exist. If this situation is unavoidable, disconnect all fuses or circuit breakers feeding this worksite.
Always wear safety goggles or eye protection when using this tool.
Wear ear protectors when using the tool for extended periods. Prolonged exposure to high intensity noise can cause hearing loss.
Use thick cushioned gloves and limit the exposure time by taking frequent rest periods. Vibration caused by
Secure the material being fastened. Never hold it in your hand or across your legs. Unstable support can cause loss of control and injury.
Avoid accidental starting. Be sure the forward/reverse switch is in the off position before inserting battery pack. Carrying appliances with your finger on the switch or inserting the battery pack into an appliance with the switch on invites accidents.
Remove battery pack before changing accessories. Accidental starting may occur because battery appliances with a battery inserted are in the operative condition.
Be prepared for a reaction torque when “seating” or removing a fastener. The screwdriver housing may tend to twist in the opposite direction of bit rotation when
“seating” or removing a fastener depending on the torque setting of the tool.
Do not use dull or damaged bits and accessories. When installing an accessory, insert the shank of the bit well within the chuck. Be sure the chuck has locked onto the bit correctly.
Do not run the tool while carrying it at your side. A spinning bit could become entangled with clothing and injury may result.
Place the tool onto the fastener only when the screwdriver is switched off. Rotating driver tools can slide off the fastener.
Do not use this tool as a drill. Tools equipped with
Be careful when driving long screws – there is a risk of sliding off the fastener head depending on type of socket or bit used. First test the
Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling and other construction
activities contains chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:
• Lead from
• Crystalline silica from bricks, cement and other masonry products.
• 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
