Safety Notes
Hold the impact drill by the insulated gripping surfaces, when performing an
operation where the cutting accessory may contact hidden wiring or its own
cord. Cutting accessory contacting a "live" wire may make exposed metal
parts of the power tool "live" and could give the operator an electric shock.
Switch off the impact drill immediately when the tool insert jams. Be
prepared for high reaction torque that can cause kickback. The tool insert
jams when the power tool is subject to overload or it becomes wedged in
the workpiece.
When working with the machine, always hold it firmly with both hands and
provide for a secure stance. The power tool is guided more secure with
both hands.
Secure the workpiece. A workpiece clamped with clamping devices or in a
vice is held more secure than by hand.
Keep your workplace clean. Blends of materials are particularly dangerous.
Dust from light alloys can burn or explode.
Always wait until the machine has come to a complete stop before placing
it down. The tool insert can jam and lead to loss of control over the impact
drill.
Never use the impact drill with a damaged cable. Do not touch the
damaged cable and pull the mains plug when the cable is damaged while
working. Damaged cables increase the risk of an electric shock.
