SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES AND SYMBOLS FOR PORTABLE DRILLS

1.ALWAYS hold drill by the handle(s) ONLY to prevent accidental electrical shock resulting from cutting a live wire when drilling into a wall or other blind areas.

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

3.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.

4.VERIFY the drill’s rotation before starting the drill so it is correct for the operation being performed.

5.NEVER change direction or rotation of reversing model until motor has completely stopped.

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

7.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.

8. DO NOT USE ON LADDER OR SCAFFOLD. Reaction torque may cause loss of balance.
