electrical device may cause electrocution.
Always use the side handle for maximum
control over torque reaction or kick-back.
Never attempt to operate this tool with
one hand. The slip clutch engages if you
firmly control the tool during a torque reaction
or kickback.
Always wear safety goggles or eye
protection when using this tool. Use a
dust mask or respirator for applications
that generate dust. Safety goggles or eye
protection will help deflect fragments of the
material that may be thrown toward your face
and eyes. Dust generated or gases released
from the material you are cutting (i.e.
asbestos insulated pipes, radon) may cause
respiratory difficulties.
Use thick cushioned gloves and limit the
exposure time by taking frequent rest
periods. Vibration caused by hammer-drill
action may be harmful to your hands and
arms.
Position the cord clear of rotating bit. Do
not wrap the cord around your arm or
wrist. If cord becomes entangled with the
GFCI and personal protection devices like
electrician's rubber gloves and footwear will
further enhance your personal safety.
Do not use AC only rated tools with a DC
power supply. While the tool may appear to
work, the electrical components of the AC rated tool are likely to fail and create a hazard
to the operator.
Keep handles dry, clean and free from oil
and grease. Slippery hands cannot safely
control the power tool.
Develop a periodic maintenance schedule
for your tool. When cleaning a tool be
careful not to disassemble any portion of
the tool since internal wires may be
misplaced or pinched or safety guard return
springs may be improperly mounted.
Certain cleaning agents such as gasoline,
carbon tetrachloride, ammonia, etc. may
damage plastic parts.

serious personal injury.
Position yourself to avoid being caught
between the tool or side handle and walls
or posts. Should the bit become bound or
jammed in the work, the reaction torque of
the tool could crush your hand or leg.
Do not strike the bit with a handheld
hammer
attempting to dislodge a bound or
jammed bit. Fragments of metal from the bit
could dislodge and strike you or bystanders.
Never place the tool down until the bit or
accessory has come to a complete stop.
Do not use dull or damaged bits and
accessories. Dull or damaged bits have a
greater tendency to bind in the workpiece.
When removing the bit from the tool avoid
contact with skin and use proper
protective gloves when grasping the bit or
accessory. Accessories may be hot after
prolonged use.
Do not run the tool while carrying it at
your side. A spinning bit could become
entangled with clothing and injury may result.
