GENERAL POWER TOOL
SAFETY WARNINGS
WARNING
Read all safety warnings, instruc-
tions, illustrations and specifi ca-
tions provided with this power tool.
Failure to
follow all instructions listed below may result in
electric shock, fi re and/or serious injury.
Save all
warnings and instructions for future reference.
The term "power tool" in the warnings refers to your
mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-oper-
ated (cordless) power tool.
WORK AREA SAFETY
• Keep work area clean and well lit.
Cluttered or
dark areas invite accidents.
• Do not operate power tools in explosive atmo-
spheres, such as in the presence of fl ammable
liquids, gases or dust.
Power tools create sparks
which may ignite the dust or fumes.
• Keep children and bystanders away while oper-
ating a power tool.
Distractions can cause you to
lose control.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
• Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never
modify the plug in any way. Do not use any
adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power
tools.
Unmodifi ed plugs and matching outlets will
reduce risk of electric shock.
• Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded
surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and
refrigerators.
There is an increased risk of electric
shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
• Do not expose power tools to rain or wet condi-
tions.
Water entering a power tool will increase the
risk of electric shock.
• Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for
carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool.
Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges
or moving parts.
Damaged or entangled cords
increase the risk of electric shock.
• When operating a power tool outdoors, use an
extension cord suitable for outdoor use.
Use of
a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of
electric shock.
• If operating a power tool in a damp location is
unavoidable, use a ground fault circuit inter-
rupter (GFCI) protected supply.
Use of an GFCI
reduces the risk of electric shock.
PERSONAL SAFETY
• Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use
common sense when operating a power tool. Do
not use a power tool while you are tired or under
the infl uence of drugs, alcohol or medication.
A
moment of inattention while operating power tools
may result in serious personal injury.
• Use personal protective equipment. Always
wear eye protection.
Protective equipment such
as a dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat or
hearing protection used for appropriate conditions
will reduce personal injuries.
• Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch
is in the off-position before connecting to power
source and/or battery pack, picking up or carry-
ing the tool.
Carrying power tools with your fi nger
on the switch or energizing power tools that have
the switch on invites accidents.
• Remove any adjusting key or wrench before
turning the power tool on.
A wrench or a key left
attached to a rotating part of the power tool may
result in personal injury.
• Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and bal-
ance at all times.
This enables better control of the
power tool in unexpected situations.
• Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or
jewelry. Keep your hair and clothing away from
moving parts.
Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair
can be caught in moving parts.
• If devices are provided for the connection of
dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure
these are connected and properly used.
Use of
dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.
• Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use
of tools allow you to become complacent and
ignore tool safety principles.
A careless action can
cause severe injury within a fraction of a second.
POWER TOOL USE AND CARE
• Do not force the power tool. Use the correct
power tool for your application.
The correct power
tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for
which it was designed.
• Do not use the power tool if the switch does not
turn it on and off.
Any power tool that cannot be
controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be
repaired.
• Disconnect the plug from the power source and/
or remove the battery pack, if detachable, from
the power tool before making any adjustments,
changing accessories, or storing power tools.
Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of
starting the power tool accidentally.
• Store idle power tools out of the reach of chil-
dren and do not allow persons unfamiliar with
the power tool or these instructions to operate
the power tool.
Power tools are dangerous in the
hands of untrained users.
• Maintain power tools and accessories. Check for
misalignment or binding of moving parts, break-
age of parts and any other condition that may
affect the power tool’s operation. If damaged,
have the power tool repaired before use.
Many
accidents are caused by poorly maintained power
tools.
• Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges
are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
• Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits
etc. in accordance with these instructions, tak-
ing into account the working conditions and the
work to be performed.
Use of the power tool for
operations different from those intended could result
in a hazardous situation.
• Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean
and free from oil and grease.
Slippery handles
and grasping surfaces do not allow for safe handling
and control of the tool in unexpected situations.
BATTERY TOOL USE AND CARE
• Recharge only with the charger specifi ed by the
manufacturer.
A charger that is suitable for one type
of battery pack may create a risk of fi re when used
with another battery pack.
• Use power tools only with specifi cally desig-
nated battery packs.
Use of any other battery
packs may create a risk of injury and fi re.
• When battery pack is not in use, keep it away
from other metal objects, like paper clips, coins,
keys, nails, screws or other small metal objects,
that can make a connection from one terminal
to another.
Shorting the battery terminals together
may cause burns or a fi re.
• Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected
from the battery; avoid contact. If contact acci-
dentally occurs, fl ush with water. If liquid con-
tacts eyes, additionally seek medical help.
Liquid
ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.
• Do not use a battery pack or tool that is dam-
aged or modifi ed.
Damaged or modifi ed batteries
may exhibit unpredictable behavior resulting in fi re,
explosion or risk of injury.
• Do not expose a battery pack or tool to fi re or
excessive temperature.
Exposure to fi re or tem-
perature above 265°F (130°C) may cause explosion.
• Follow all charging instructions and do not
charge the battery pack or tool outside the
temperature range specifi ed in the instructions.
Charging improperly or at temperatures outside
the specifi ed range may damage the battery and
increase the risk of fi re.
SERVICE
• Have your power tool serviced by a qualifi ed
repair person using only identical replacement
parts.
This will ensure that the safety of the power
tool is maintained.
• Never service damaged battery packs.
Service
of battery packs should only be performed by the
manufacturer or authorized service providers.
SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES 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 tools by insulated gripping surfaces,
when performing an operation where the cutting
tool 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.
• Keep hands away from all cutting edges and
moving parts.
•
Maintain labels and nameplates.
These carry
important information. If unreadable or missing,
contact a MILWAUKEE service facility for a free
replacement.
•
WARNING
Some dust created by power sand-
ing, sawing, grinding, drilling, and
other construction activities contains chemicals
known to cause cancer, birth defects or other repro-
ductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals
are:
• lead from lead-based paint
• 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 spe-
cially designed to fi lter out microscopic particles.
