SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES
1.Hold power tools by insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation where the cutting tool may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Contact with a "live" wire will make exposed metal parts of the tool "live" and shock the operator.
2.Wear ear protectors with impact drills. Exposure to noise can cause hearing loss.
3.Use auxiliary handles supplied with the tool. Loss of control can cause personal injury.
4.Maintain tools carefully. Keep handles dry, clean and free from oil and grease. Keep cutting edges sharp and clean. Follow instructions for lubricating and changing accessories. Periodically inspect tool cords and extension cords for damage. Have damaged parts repaired or replaced by a MILWAUKEE service facility.
5.Maintain labels and nameplates. These carry important information. If unreadable or missing, contact a MILWAUKEE service facility for a free replacement.
6.WARNING! 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 and cement and other masonry products, and
•arsenic and chromium from
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 well ventilated area, and work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specifically designed to filter out microscopic particles.
7.Always use anchor bolts to secure the base on cracked, uneven, porous or vertical surfaces.
8.Diamond coring equipment requires the use of water. Since the use of electrical equipment in wet areas is hazardous, the equipment must be grounded (see "Grounding"). Wear insulated footwear and gloves for extra protection against shock hazards.
9.Provide proper protection for people and property below the coring area when coring through floors.
10.A meter box must always be used with Diamond Coring Equipment so that amperage can be monitored. See "Accessories".
