Safety Information
• Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is
in the off-position before connecting to power source
and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool.
Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or
energising power tools that have the switch on invites
accidents.
• 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 in-
jury.
• Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance
at all times. This enables better control of the power tool
in unexpected situations.
• Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jew-
ellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from
moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can
be caught in moving parts.
• If devices are provided for the connection of dust ex-
traction and collection facilities, ensure these are con-
nected and properly used. Use of dust collection can
reduce dust-related hazards.
• Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use of
tools allow you to become complacent and ignore tool
safety principles. A careless action can cause severe in-
jury within a fraction of a second.
• Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces,
when performing an operation where the fastener
may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Fasteners
contacting a "live" wire may make exposed metal parts
of the power tool "live" and could give the operator an
electric shock.
Power tool use and care
• 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 de-
signed.
• 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.
• Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the
battery pack from the power tool before making any
adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power
tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of
starting the power tool accidentally.
• 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.
• 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 oper-
ation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired be-
fore use. Many accidents are caused by poorly main-
tained power tools.
• 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.

• Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in ac-
cordance with these instructions, taking into account
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.
• 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.
Service
• 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 main-
tained.
Additional Safety Rules for screwdrivers and
wrenches
Entanglement hazards
• Keep away from rotating drive. Choking, scalping
and / or lacerations can occur if loose clothing, gloves,
jewellery, neck ware and hair are not kept away from
tool and accessories.
• Do not wear loose-fitting gloves or gloves with cut or
frayed fingers. Gloves can become entangled with the
rotating drive, causing severed or broken fingers.
• Rotating drive sockets and drive extensions can easily
entangle rubber-coated or metal-reinforced gloves.
• Never hold the drive, socket or drive extension.
Operating hazards
• Operators and maintenance personnel must be physi-
cally able to handle the bulk, weight and power of the
tool.
• Hold the tool correctly: be ready to counteract nor-
mal or sudden movements. Have both hands available.
• Immediately after adjusting the clutch, check for cor-
rect operation.
• Do not use in a worn condition. The clutch may not op-
erate, resulting in sudden rotation of the tool handle.
• Always support the tool's handle securely, in the di-
rection opposite to the spindle rotation, to reduce the
effect of sudden torque reaction during final tighten-
ing and initial loosening.
• If possible, use a suspension arm to absorb the reac-
tion torque. If that is not possible, side handles are
recommended for straight-case and pistol-grip tools;
reaction bars are recommended for angle nutrun-
ners. In any case, it is recommended to use a means to
absorb the reaction torque above 4 Nm (3 lbf.ft) for
straight-case tools, above 10 Nm (7.5 lbf.ft) for pistol-
grip tools, and above 60 Nm (44 lbf.ft) for angle nutrun-
ners.
Projectile hazards
• Always wear impact-resistant eye and face protection
when involved with or near the operation, repair or
maintenance of the tool or changing accessories on
the tool.
