Additional Safety Rules

1.Wear a hard hat (safety helmet) and an ear protector if necessary.

2.Be sure the drill bit is secured in place before operation.

3.Under normal operation, the tool is designed to produce vibration. The screws can come loose easily, causing a breakdown or accident. Check tightness of screws carefully before operation.

4.In cold weather or when the tool has not been used for a long time, let the tool warm up for several minutes by operating it under no load. This will loosen up the lubrication. Without proper warm-up hammering operation is difficult.

5. Always be sure you have a firm footing.

Be sure no one is below when using the tool in high locations. 6 . Hold the tool firmly with both hands. Always use the side grip.

7 . Keep hands away from rotating parts.

8 . Do not leave the tool running. Operate the tool only when hand-held.

9.Do not point the tool at any one in the area when operating. The drill bit could fly out and injure someone seriously.

IO. When drilling into walls, floors or wherever ”live” electrical wires may be encountered, DO NOT TOUCH ANY METAL PARTS OF THE TOOL!

Hold the tool only by the plastic handle or the side grip to prevent electric shock if you drill into a “live” wire.

11.Do not touch the drill bit or parts close t o the drill bit immediately after oper- ation; they may be extremely hot and could burn your skin.
