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.
9. SOME WOOD CONTAINS PRESERVATIVES WHICH CAN BE TOXIC.
Take extra care to prevent inhalation and skin contact when working with
these materials. Request, and follow, any safety information available from
your material supplier.
