SAFETY RULES FOR CORDLESS DRILL / DRIVERS
Always wear safety goggles or eye protection when using this tool. Use a
dust mask or respirator for applications which generate dust.
Do not grasp the tool or place your hands too close to the spinning chuck or
drill bit. Your hand may be lacerated or may cause injury.
Secure the material being worked on. Never hold it in your hand or across
your legs. Unstable support can cause loss of control and injury.
Position yourself to avoid being caught between the tool or side handle and
walls or posts. Should the socket or bit become bound in the work, the reac-
tion torque of the tool could crush your hand or leg.
Check to see that keys and adjusting wrenches are removed from the
Cordless Drill before switching the tool “ON”. Keys or wrenches can fly away
at high velocity striking you or a bystander.
When using the Cordless Drill, always maintain a firm grip on the tool with
both hands.
Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation
where the cutting tool may contact hidden wiring. Contact with a "live" wire
will also make exposed metal parts of the tool "live" and shock the operator.
Keep the handle of the Cordless Drill dry, clean, and free from oil and grease.
Do not run the Cordless Drill while carrying it at your side. A spinning sock-
et or bit could become entangled with clothing and injury may result.
Disconnect the plug or remove the battery pack from tool and place the switch in
the locked or “OFF” position before making any assembly adjustments, changing
accessories, performing any inspection, maintenance or cleaning procedures.
Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally.
Do not use the Cordless Drill if it has been damaged, left outdoors in the
rain, snow, wet or damp environments, or immersed in liquid.
Maintain labels and nameplates on the Cordless Drill. These carry important
information. If unreadable or missing, contact Alltrade for a replacement.
