before switching the tool "ON". Keys or
wrenches can fly away at high velocity
striking you or a bystander.
Do not run the drill while carrying it at
your side.
A spinning drill bit could become
entangled with clothing and injury may result.
This tool may be used with sanding and
polishing disks, grinding wheels, wire
wheel and wire cup brushes. These
accessories must be rated for at least the
speed recommended on the tool warning
label.
Wheels and other accessories running
over rated speed can fly apart and cause
injury.
Avoid bouncing and snagging the wheels,
discs or brushes especially when working
corners, sharp edges, etc.
This can cause
loss of control and kickback.
Use a stud sensor to determine where
studs may be located. The stud sensor
may also be able to detect other objects
hidden in a wall such as conduit, gas or
water pipes. If you are uncertain about
the work area call the local utility
company for assistance before beginning
the project.
Striking or cutting into a gas
line will result in explosion. Water entering
an electrical device may cause electrocution.
Cutting into live electrical wiring may cause a
shock hazard.
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.
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 specially
designed to filter out microscopic particles.
