Extension Cords

CAUTION: 

Use only extension cords that are approved by the country’s Electrical 

Authority. Before using extension cords, inspect them for loose or exposed wires, 

damaged insulation and defective fittings. Replace the cord if necessary.

Additional Safety Instructions for Rotary Hammers 

  •  Wear ear protectors. 

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.

  •  Be certain that the material being drilled does not conceal electric or gas 

service and that their locations have been verified with the utility companies.

  •  Use clamps or another practical way to secure and support the workpiece 

to a stable platform. H

olding the work by hand or against your body leaves it 

unstable and may lead to loss of control.

  •  Wear safety goggles or other eye protection. 

Hammering 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. 

It is recommended that the side handle 

be used at all times. 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.

  •  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.

  •  Do not recondition bits yourself.

 Chisel reconditioning should be done by an 

authorized specialist. Improperly reconditioned chisels could cause injury.

  •  Accessories and tool may get hot during operation.

 Wear gloves when handling 

them if performing heat producing applications such as hammerdrilling and 

drilling metals.

  •  Never lay the tool down until the bit has come to a complete stop. 

Moving bits 

could cause injury.

  •  Do not strike jammed bits with a hammer to dislodge them. 

Fragments of metal 

or material chips could dislodge and cause injury.

  •  Slightly worn chisels can be resharpened by grinding.
NOTE: 

Do not overheat the bit (discoloration) while grinding a new edge. Badly worn 

chisels require reforging. Do not reharden and temper the chisel.

  •  Air vents often cover moving parts and should be avoided. 

Loose clothes, 

jewelry or long hair can be caught in moving parts.

WARNING: 

We recommend the use of a residual current device with a residual 

current rating of 30mA or less.

WARNING: ALWAYS wear approved protective safety equipment complying with 

the following standards:

•  Eye protection: AS/NZS1337 Eye Protectors for Industrial Applications;
•  Hearing protection: AS/NZS1270 Acoustics – Hearing Protection;
•  Respiratory protection: AS/NZS1716 Respiratory Protective Devices.

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 lead-based paints,
•   crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, and 
•  arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber.
