Safety Instructions For Hammer Drills - Skil 6565 Instrucciones

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.
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.
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 tool's
operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired
before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly
maintained power tools.
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.
g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc., in
accordance with these instructions, 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.
5) 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.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR HAMMER DRILLS

• Wear ear protectors with hammer drills (exposure to
noise can cause hearing loss)
• Use auxiliary handles supplied with the tool (loss of
control can cause personal injury)
• Hold the power tool only by the insulated gripping
surfaces when performing an operation where the
accessory may contact hidden wiring or its own
power cord (contact with a "live" wire will also make
exposed metal parts of the power tool "live" and shock
the operator); always use auxiliary handle K 2
• Use suitable detectors to find hidden utility lines or
call the local utility company for assistance (contact
with electric lines can lead to fi re or electrical shock;
damaging a gas line can result in an explosion;
penetrating a water pipe will cause property damage or
an electrical shock)
• Avoid damage that can be caused by screws, nails and
other elements in your workpiece; remove them before
you start working
• Always keep the cord away from moving parts of the
tool
• Secure the workpiece (a workpiece clamped with
clamping devices or in a vice is held more securely than
by hand)
• When you put away the tool, switch off the motor and
ensure that all moving parts have come to a complete
standstill
• Use completely unrolled and safe extension cords with
a capacity of 16 Amps (U.K. 13 Amps)
• In case of electrical or mechanical malfunction,
immediately switch off the tool and disconnect the plug
• SKIL can assure fl awless functioning of the tool only
when original accessories are used
• Use only accessories with an allowable speed matching
at least the highest no-load speed of the tool
• This tool should not be used by people under the age of
16 years
• Do not work materials containing asbestos (asbestos
is considered carcinogenic)
• Take protective measures when during work dust
can develop that is harmful to one's health,
combustible or explosive (some dusts are considered
carcinogenic); wear a dust mask and work with dust/
chip extraction when connectable
• If the cord is damaged or cut through while working, do
not touch the cord, but immediately disconnect the plug
• Never use tool when cord is damaged; have it replaced
by a qualifi ed person
• Always check that the supply voltage is the same as the
voltage indicated on the nameplate of the tool (tools
with a rating of 230V or 240V can also be connected to
a 220V supply)
• If the drill bit becomes unexpectedly jammed (causing a
sudden, dangerous reaction), immediately switch off the
tool
• Be aware of the forces that occur as a result of jamming
(especially when drilling metals); always use auxiliary
handle K 2 and take a secure stance
• Always disconnect plug from power source before
making any adjustment or changing any accessory
WHEN CONNECTING NEW 3-PIN PLUG (U.K. ONLY):
• Do not connect the blue (= neutral) or brown (= live) wire
in the cord of this tool to the earth terminal of the plug
• If for any reason the old plug is cut off the cord of this
tool, it must be disposed of safely and not left
unattended
USE
• On/off 4
• Switch locking for continuous use 5
• Speed control for smooth starting 6
• Maximum speed control 7
With wheel B 2 the maximum speed can be adjusted
from low to high
- switch on the tool
- lock the switch
- turn wheel B to select maximum speed
• Changing direction of rotation 8
- when not properly set in left/right position, switch
A 2 cannot be activated
- indicator E shows the selected direction of rotation
! change direction of rotation only when tool is at a
complete standstill
