7. Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained tools with sharp cutting edge are less likely to bind and are easier
to control.
8. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of
parts, and any other condition that may affect the tool’s operation. If
damaged, have the tool serviced before using. Many accidents are caused
by poorly maintained tools.
9. Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for
your model. Accessories that may be suitable for one tool may create a risk
of injury when used on another tool.
SERVICE
1. Tool service must be performed only by qualified repair personnel.
Service or maintenance performed by unqualified personnel could result in a
risk of injury.
2. When servicing a tool, use only identical replacement parts. Follow
instructions in the Maintenance Section of this manual. Use of
unauthorized parts or failure to follow Maintenance Instructions may create a
risk of shock or injury.
SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES AND SYMBOLS
1. HOLD TOOL BY INSULATED GRIPPING SURFACES when performing
an operation where the cutting tool may contact hidden wiring or its own cord.
Contact with a “live” wire will also make exposed metal parts of the tool “live”
and shock the operator.
2. DO NOT use bits larger than those recommended. Larger bits increase the
chance of jamming, and will overload the drill, damaging the motor and gears.
3. DO NOT USE CHUCK if jaws or other parts are cracked or worn.
4. VERIFY THE DRILL’S ROTATION BEFORE STARTING THE DRILL.
5.
NEVER ATTEMPT TO CHANGE DIRECTION of rotation while switch is
“ON”. To do so may damage interlock feature built into switch. Be sure switch
is “OFF” and motor has completely stopped before changing direction of
rotation.
6. NEVER HOLD WORKPIECE IN YOUR HAND, LAP, OR AGAINST
OTHER PARTS OF YOUR BODY during operation.
7. DO NOT USE DRILL AS A ROUTER, or try to elongate or enlarge holes
by twisting the drill. Drill bits can break and can cause injury.
8. 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, all safety information available from your material
supplier.
