Safety instructions when using long drill bits with rotary

hammers

uAlways start drilling at low speed and with the bit tip

in contact with the workpiece. At higher speeds, the bit

is likely to bend if allowed to rotate freely without contact-

ing the workpiece, resulting in personal injury.

uApply pressure only in direct line with the bit and do

not apply excessive pressure. Bits can bend, causing

breakage or loss of control, resulting in personal injury.

Additional safety information

uUse suitable detectors to determine if there are hid-

den supply lines or contact the local utility company

for assistance. Contact with electric cables can cause

fire and electric shock. Damaging gas lines can lead to ex-

plosion. Breaking water pipes causes property damage.

uAlways wait until the power tool has come to a com-

plete stop before placing it down. The application tool

can jam and cause you to lose control of the power tool.

uSecure the workpiece. A workpiece clamped with

clamping devices or in a vice is held more secure than by

hand.

uIn case of damage and improper use of the battery, va-

pours may be emitted. The battery can set alight or ex-

plode. Ensure the area is well ventilated and seek medical

attention should you experience any adverse effects. The

vapours may irritate the respiratory system.

uDo not open the battery. There is a risk of short-circuit-

ing.

uThe battery can be damaged by pointed objects such

as nails or screwdrivers or by force applied externally.

An internal short circuit may occur, causing the battery to

burn, smoke, explode or overheat.

uOnly use the battery with products from the manufac-

turer. This is the only way in which you can protect the

battery against dangerous overload.

Protect the battery against heat, e.g. against

continuous intense sunlight, fire, dirt, water

and moisture. There is a risk of explosion and

short-circuiting.

uDo not touch any application tools or adjacent housing

components shortly after operation. These can become

very hot during operation and cause burns.

uThe application tool may jam during drilling. Make

sure you have a stable footing and hold the power tool

firmly with both hands. Otherwise you could lose con-

trol of the power tool.

uTake care when carrying out demolition work using

the chisel. Falling fragments of the demolition material

could injure you or any bystanders.

uHold the power tool firmly with both hands and make

sure you have a stable footing. The power tool can be

more securely guided with both hands.

uCaution! When using the power tool with Bluetooth®, a

fault may occur in other devices and systems, aero-

planes and medical devices (e.g. pacemakers, hearing

aids). Also, damage to people and animals in the im-

mediate vicinity cannot be completely excluded. Do

not use the power tool with Bluetooth® in the vicinity of

medical devices, petrol stations, chemical plants,

areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere or in

blasting areas. Do not use the power tool with

Bluetooth® in aircraft. Avoid using the product near

your body for extended periods.
