VOLTAGE WARNING: Before connecting the tool to a power source (receptacle, outlet, etc.) be sure the voltage supplied is the same as that specified on the nameplate of the tool. A power source with voltage greater than that specified for the tool can result in SERIOUS INJURY to the user - as well as damage t o the tool. If in doubt, DO NOT PLUG IN THE TOOL. Using a power source with voltage less than the nameplate rating is harmful t o the motor.

ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES

1.Wear a hard hat (safety helmet), safety glasses and/or face shield. It is also highly recommended that you wear a dust mask, ear protectors and thickly padded gloves.

2.Be sure the 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.

7.Keep hands away from moving 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 bit could fly out and injure someone seriously.

I O . When drilling or chipping into walls, floors or wherever "live" electrical wires may be encountered, DO NOT TOUCH ANY METAL PARTS OF THE TOOL! Hold the tool by the insulated grasping surfaces t o prevent electric shock if you drill or chip into a "live" wire.

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

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
