u Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly main-

tained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less

likely to bind and are easier to control.

u Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in

accordance with these instructions, taking into ac-

count the working conditions and the work to be per-

formed. Use of the power tool for operations different

from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.

u Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean and

free from oil and grease. Slippery handles and grasping

surfaces do not allow for safe handling and control of the

tool in unexpected situations.

Battery tool use and care

u Recharge only with the charger specified by the manu-

facturer. A charger that is suitable for one type of bat-

tery pack may create a risk of fire when used with another

battery pack.

u Use power tools only with specifically designated bat-

tery packs. Use of any other battery packs may create a

risk of injury and fire.

u When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from

other metal objects, like paper clips, coins, keys,

nails, screws or other small metal objects, that can

make a connection from one terminal to another.

Shorting the battery terminals together may cause burns

or a fire.

u Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from

the battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally oc-

curs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, addi-

tionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the bat-

tery may cause irritation or burns.

u Do not use a battery pack or tool that is damaged or

modified. Damaged or modified batteries may exhibit

unpredictable behaviour resulting in fire, explosion or risk

of injury.

u Do not expose a battery pack or tool to fire or excess-

ive temperature. Exposure to fire or temperature above

130°C may cause explosion.

u Follow all charging instructions and do not charge the

battery pack or tool outside the temperature range

specified in the instructions. Charging improperly or at

temperatures outside the specified range may damage

the battery and increase the risk of fire.

Service

u Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair

person using only identical replacement parts. This

will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.

u Never service damaged battery packs. Service of bat-

tery packs should only be performed by the manufacturer

or authorized service providers.

Safety information for drills and screwdrivers

Safety instructions for all operations

u Wear ear protectors when impact drilling. Exposure to

noise can cause hearing loss.

u Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces,

when performing an operation where the cutting ac-

cessory or fasteners may contact hidden wiring. Cut-

ting accessory or fasteners contacting a "live" wire may

make exposed metal parts of the power tool "live" and

could give the operator an electric shock.

Safety instructions when using long drill bits

u Never operate at higher speed than the maximum

speed rating of the drill bit. At higher speeds, the bit is

likely to bend if allowed to rotate freely without contact-

ing the workpiece, resulting in personal injury.

u Always 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.

u Apply 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 warnings

u Hold the power tool securely. When tightening and

loosening screws be prepared for temporarily high torque

reactions.

u Secure the workpiece. A workpiece clamped with

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

hand.

u Use 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.

u Always 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.

u In 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.

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

ing.

u The 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.

u Only 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.

u Switch the power tool off immediately if the applica-

tion tool becomes blocked. Be prepared for high

torque reactions which cause kickback. The applica-

tion tool becomes blocked when it becomes jammed in
