Genesis Advanced Technologies GHD1260 Operation, Trigger Controlled Dialable Variable Speed

English

6.Wear cushioned gloves and take frequent rest breaks. Hammer drills can generate considerable vibration when in operation which may be harmful to your hands and arms.

7.Always check that the trigger lock is “OFF” before plugging the tool into the power source. Never leave the trigger locked in the “ON” position when not using the tool. Accidental start-ups may cause personal injury.

8.Do not hold the tool or place your hands near the rotating chuck or drill bit. Contact with any moving parts may result in personal injury.

9.Always check that the material being drilled is secure and clamped in place if necessary to prevent any movement.

An unstable workpiece can cause the drill bit to bind, causing of control and injury.

10.Never hold the workpiece in your hand, lap or against other parts of the body when drilling or hammer drilling.

Contact with the drill bit can cause injury.

11.Always position the cord away from the rotating bit and DO NOT wrap the cord around your arm or wrist. If the cord is caught by the rotating bit or chuck you may lose control of the hammer drill and become entrapped by the cord, causing personal injury.

12.Know the location and setting of the switch “Lock-On” button. When the switch is locked “ON” during operation, be ready to immediately switch it “OFF” during an emergency situation, by pulling the trigger then releasing it immediately without pressing the “Lock-On” button.

13.Do not use the switch trigger “Lock-On” in situations where drill bit binding or jamming is likely to occur. (Such as: striking hidden rebar in concrete, just before the bit breaks through the opposite side of the workpiece, when using large diameter bits, etc.) When the bit jams or binds reaction torque occurs, causing the drill body to forcibly kick-back or twist in the opposite direction and releasing the trigger “lock-on” may be difficult.

14.When using the hammer drill DO NOT position yourself between the tool or auxiliary handle and a wall or post. If the bit jams or becomes bound in the workpiece, the sudden reaction torque of the tool could crush your hand, arm or leg against a stationary object.

15.If the bit jams or binds in the work, immediately release the switch trigger to prevent personal injury. Unplug the drill from the power source and then remove the drill bit from the work. Do not attempt to free the jammed drill bit by repeatedly starting and stopping the drill motor; this action could result in bodily injury.

16.Do not use dull or damaged bits and accessories. Dull or damaged bits are more likely to bind in the workpiece.

17.Do not use bits larger then those recommended. They are more likely to jam, causing loss of tool control and personal injury. Large bits may also overload the drill, causing motor and gear damage.

18.When removing the drill bit from the tool avoid contact with skin. Allow sufficient time for the bit to cool down or use proper protective gloves to handle the bit or accessory. Drill bits and accessories may be hot after prolonged use.

19.Use only percussion-type carbide tipped bits for hammer drilling and do not attempt cutting reinforcing rod with percussion-type bits.

20.Check the tool and remove any chuck keys or adjusting wrenches before switching the tool “ON”. Keys and wrenches can fly off at high speed striking you or a bystander, causing an injury.
