3. Personal safety  
General safety rules  
a. Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use  
common sense when operating a power tool. Do  
not use a power tool while you are tired or under the  
influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of  
inattention while operating power tools may result in  
serious personal injury.  
WARNING. Read all instructions. Failure to follow all  
instructions listed below may result in electric shock,  
fire and/or serious injury. The term “power tool” in all of  
the warnings listed below refers to your mains operated  
(corded) power tool or battery operated (cordless)  
power tool.  
b. Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection.  
Safety equipment such as dust mask, non-skid  
safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for  
appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.  
Save these instructions  
1. Work area  
a. Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered and dark  
areas invite accidents.  
c. Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the switch is in the  
off position before plugging in. Carrying power tools with  
your finger on the switch or plugging in power tools that  
have the switch on invites accidents.  
b. Do not operate power tools in explosive  
atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable  
liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which  
may ignite the dust or fumes.  
d. Remove any adjusting key or wrench before  
turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left  
attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in  
personal injury.  
c. Keep children and bystanders away while operating  
a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.  
2. Electrical safety  
a. Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify  
the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with  
earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and  
matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.  
e. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at  
all times. This enables better control of the power tool in  
unexpected situations.  
f. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or  
jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from  
moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be  
caught in moving parts.  
b. Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded  
surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and  
refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock  
if your body is earthed or grounded.  
g. If devices are provided for the connection of dust  
extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are  
connected and properly used. Use of these devices  
can reduce dust related hazards.  
c. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet  
conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the  
risk of electric shock.  
d. Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for  
carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool.  
Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving  
parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of  
electric shock.  
4. Power tool use and care  
a. Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool  
for your application. The correct power tool will do the job  
better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.  
b. Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn  
it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled  
with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.  
e. When operating a power tool outdoors, use an  
extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord  
suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.

c. Disconnect the plug from the power source before  
making any adjustments, changing accessories, or  
storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures  
reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.  
make a connection from one terminal to another.  
Shorting the battery terminals together may cause burns  
or a fire.  
e. Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected  
from the battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally  
occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes,  
additionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the  
battery may cause irritation or burns.  
d. Store idle power tools out of the reach of children  
and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power  
tool or these instructions to operate the power tool.  
Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.  
e. Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or  
binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and  
any other condition that may affect the power tools  
operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired  
before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly  
maintained power tools.  
6. Service  
a. 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.  
Additional safety instructions for drills  
Wear ear protectors with impact drills.  
Exposure to noise can cause hearing loss.  
f. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly  
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less  
likely to bind and are easier to control.  
Use auxiliary handles supplied with the tool.  
Loss of control can cause personal injury.  
If possible, always use clamps or a vice to hold your work.  
g. Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc.,  
in accordance with these instructions and in the  
manner intended for the particular type of power  
tool, taking into account the working conditions and  
the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for  
operations different from those intended could result in a  
hazardous situation.  
Always switch off before you put the drill down.  
Ensure that the lighting is adequate.  
Do not put pressure on the drill, such that it slows the  
motor down. Allow the drill bit to cut without pressure.  
You will get better results and you will be taking better  
care of your tool.  
5. Battery tool use and care  
a. Ensure the switch is in the off position before  
inserting battery pack. Inserting the battery pack into  
power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.  
Keep the area free of tripping hazards.  
Do not let anyone under 18 years operate this tool.  
Only use accessory bits in good condition.  
b. Recharge only with the charger specified by the  
manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one type  
of battery pack may create a risk of fire when used with  
another battery pack.  
Before drilling, check that there is sufficient clearance for  
the drill bit under the workpiece.  
Do not touch the bit after operation. It will be very hot.  
Keep your hands away from under the workpiece.  
c. Use power tools only with specifically designated  
battery packs. Use of any other battery packs may  
create a risk of injury and fire.  
Never use your hands to remove sawdust, chips or waste  
close by the bit.  
d. 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  
Rags, cloths, cord, string and the like should never be left  
around the work area.

Always clamp sheet metal.  
When drilling through holes, place a block of wood behind  
the work piece to prevent ragged or splintered edges on  
the back side of the hole.  
Support thin metal with a block of wood to avoid  
distorting it.  
WARNING. Never attempt to lock the trigger switch in the  
on position, do not lock the trigger on jobs where your  
hammer drill may need to be stopped suddenly.  
Use a punch to mark the centre of the hole.  
Use a suitable lubricant for the material you are  
working on.

Drilling masonry  
For maximum performance use carbide-tipped masonry  
impact bits when drilling holes in brick, tile, concrete etc.  
Turn the mode selector to hammer mode, then rotate the  
torque collar to the drill position.  
Apply light pressure and medium speed for best results  
in brick.  
Apply additional pressure and high speed for hard  
materials such as concrete.  
When drilling holes in tile, practice on a scrap piece to  
determine the best speed and pressure.

Care  
Don’t force the drill, let it work at its own pace  
Keep the drill bit sharp.  
Reduce pressure, as the drill is about to break through  
the item being drilled.  
Maintenance  
Store the tools, instruction manual and where necessary  
the accessories in the original packaging. In this way  
you will always have all the information and parts ready  
to hand.  
Do not throw used batteries into fire or water. There  
is a danger of explosion! Please hand in non-working  
or used batteries, or tools with built-in batteries, to the  
environmentally-safe disposal unit at a municipal waste-  
disposal centre, or to your dealer.  
Power cord maintenance  
If the supply cord needs replacing, the task must be carried  
out by the manufacturer, the manufacturer’s agent, or an  
authorised service centre in order to avoid a safety hazard.
