SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR CORDLESS
SCREWDRIVERS
GENERAL
• Do not work materials containing
asbestos (asbestos is considered
carcinogenic)
• Dust from material such as paintcontaining
lead, some wood species, minerals and
metal may be harmful (contact with or
inhalation of the dust may cause allergic
reactions and/or respiratory diseases to the
operator or bystanders); wear a dust mask
and work with a dust extraction device
when connectable
• Certain kinds of dust are classified as
carcinogenic (such as oak and beech dust)
especially in conjunction with additives for
wood conditioning; wear a dust mask and
work with a dust extraction device when
connectable
• Follow the dust-related national
requirements for the materials you want to
work with
• Do not expose tool/charger to rain
• Do not disassemble charger or tool Ensure
not to activate the forward/reverse selector
before making any adjustments or changing
accessories as well as when carrying or
storing the tool
• This charger can be used by children
aged 8 and above and by persons
who have physical, sensory or mental
limitations or a lack of experience or
knowledge if a person responsible for
their safety supervises them or has
instructed them in the safe operation
of the charger and they understand the
associated dangers (otherwise, there is a
danger of operating errors and injuries)
• Supervise children (this will ensure that
children do not play with the charger)
• Cleaning and user maintenance of the
battery charger shall not be made by
children without supervision
• Do not use charger when damaged
• If the supply cord is damaged, it must be
replaced by the manufacturer, its service
agent or similarly qualified persons in order
to avoid a hazard.
ACCESSORIES
• SKIL can assure flawless functioning of the
tool only when original accessories are used
BEFORE USE
• Always check that the supply voltage is
the same as the voltage indicated on the
nameplate of the charger
• Avoid damage that can be caused by
screws, nails and other elements in your
workpiece; remove them before you start
working
• Secure the workpiece (a workpiece
clamped with clamping devices or in a vice
is held more securely than by hand)
• Use suitable detectors to find hidden
utility lines or call the local utility
company for assistance (contact with
electric lines can lead to fire or electrical
shock; damaging a gas line can result in
an explosion; penetrating a water pipe will
cause property damage or an electrical
shock)
DURING USE
• Hold the power tool by insulated
gripping surfaces, when performing an
operation where the cutting accessory
or fastener may contact hidden wiring
(cutting accessory and fasteners contacting
a “live” wire may make exposed metal parts
of the power tool “live” and could give the
operator an electric shock)
