ADDITIONAL SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES

2.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.

3.VERIFY the direction of rotation before starting the tool.

4.NEVER ATTEMPT TO CHANGE DIRECTION of rotation while switch is “ON”. To do so, may damage the drill. Be sure switch is “OFF” and motor has completely stopped before changing direction of rotation.

5.SOME WOOD CONTAINS PRESERVATIVES WHICH CAN BE TOXIC. Take extra care to prevent inhalation and skin contact when working with these materials. Request, and follow, any safety information available from your material supplier.

6.DO NOT use bits larger than those recommended in Fig. A. They increase the chance of jamming. Large bits may also overload the drill and damage the motor and gears.

7.USE ONLY the proper chuck key to tighten or loosen the chuck. Do not use chuck if jaws or other parts are cracked or worn.

8.NEVER hold work in your hand, lap, or against other parts of your body when drilling.

9.DO NOT use drill as a router or try to elongate or enlarge holes by twisting the drill. Drill bits may break and cause injury.
