d)

 Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from 

the battery, avoid contact. If contact accidentally occurs, 

flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek 

medical help. 

Liquid ejected from the battery may cause 

irritation or burns.

6) SERVICE

a) 

Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair 

person using only identical replacement parts.

 

This will 

ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.

Drill/Driver/Hammerdrill Safety Warnings

•  Wear ear protectors when impact drilling. 

Exposure to noise 

can cause hearing loss.

•  Use auxiliary handle(s), if supplied with the tool.

 Loss of 

control can cause personal injury.

  Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when 

performing an operation where the cutting accessory may 

contact hidden wiring. 

Cutting accessory contacting a “live” 

wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool “live” and 

could give the operator an electric shock.

•  Use clamps or other practical way to secure and support 

the workpiece to a stable platform. 

Holding the work by hand 

or against your body is unstable and may lead to loss of control.

•  Wear safety goggles or other eye protection.

 Hammering and 

drilling operations cause chips to fly. Flying particles can cause 

permanent eye damage.

•  Keep a firm grip on the tool at all times. Do not attempt 

to operate this tool without holding it with both hands.

 

Operating this tool with one hand will result in loss of control. 

Breaking through or encountering hard materials such as re-bar 

may be hazardous as well.

 

Accessories and tool may get hot during operation.

 Wear 

gloves when handling them if performing heat producing 

applications such as hammerdrilling and drilling metals.

•  Do not operate this tool for long periods of time.

 Vibration 

caused by hammer action may be harmful to your hands and arms. 

Use gloves to provide extra cushion and limit exposure by taking 

frequent rest periods.

• 

Air vents often cover moving parts and should be avoided.

 

Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught in moving parts.

 WARNING: ALWAYS 

use safety glasses. Everyday eyeglasses are 

NOT safety glasses. Also use face or dust mask if cutting operation is 

dusty. ALWAYS WEAR CERTIFIED SAFETY EQUIPMENT:

•  ANSI Z87.1 eye protection (CAN/CSA Z94.3),
•  ANSI S12.6 (S3.19) hearing protection,
•  NIOSH/OSHA/MSHA respiratory protection.

 WARNING: 

Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, 

grinding, drilling, and other construction activities contains chemicals 

known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other 

reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:

•  lead from lead-based paints,
•   crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry 

products, and 

•  arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber.

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 specially designed to filter out 

microscopic particles.

• 

Avoid prolonged contact with dust from power sanding, 

sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities. 

Wear protective clothing and wash exposed areas with soap 

and water. 

Allowing dust to get into your mouth, eyes, or lay on 

the skin may promote absorption of harmful chemicals.
