[. . . ] If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock. 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. [. . . ] unstable support can cause the drill bit to bind causing loss of control and injury. Before plugging the tool in, check that the trigger lock is "OFF". If you lose control and have the cord wrapped around your arm or wrist it may entrap you and cause 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. If the bit becomes bound in the workpiece, release the trigger immediately, reverse the direction of rotation and slowly squeeze the trigger to back out the bit. the drill body will tend to twist in the opposite direction as the drill bit is rotating. Do not grasp the tool or place your hands too close to the spinning chuck or drill bit. Do not use the switch "Lock-ON" feature in situations where drill bit binding is likely. (For example: just before the bit is ready to break through the material, anytime when using a "Hole Saw", auger bits. ) When the bit binds, the drill's body will twist or kick-back in opposite direction and the release of the trigger "LockON" may be difficult. be aware of the location and setting of the switch "Lock-ON" button. If the switch is locked "ON" during the use, be ready for emergency situations to switch it "OFF", by first pulling the trigger then immediately releasing it without pressing the "Lock-ON" button. When installing a drill bit, insert the shank of the bit well within the jaws of the chuck. If the bit is not inserted deep enough, the grip of the jaws over the bit is reduced and the loss of control is increased. When removing the bit from the tool avoid contact with skin and use proper protective gloves when grasping the bit or accessory. Check to see that keys and adjusting wrenches are removed from the drill before switching the tool "ON". Keys or wrenches can fly away at high velocity striking you or a bystander. A spinning drill bit could become entangled with clothing and injury may result. Proper interpretation of these symbols will allow you to operate the tool better and safer.

[. . . ] Ventilation openings and switch levers must be kept clean and free of foreign matter. Do not at tempt to clean by inserting pointed objects through openings. Some of these are: gasoline, carbon tetrachlo ride, chlo rinated cleaning solvents, ammonia and house hold detergents that contain ammonia. WARNING necessary, a cord with Adequate size conductors that is capable of carrying the current necessary for your tool must be used. [. . . ]
