Do not drill, fasten or break into existing walls or other blind areas where
electrical wiring may exist. If this situation is unavoidable, disconnect all
fuses or circuit breakers feeding this worksite.
Always wear safety goggles or eye protection when using this tool.
Bit, sockets and tools get hot during operation. Wear gloves when
touching them.
Wear ear protectors when using the tool for extended periods. Prolonged
exposure to high intensity noise can cause hearing loss.
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.
Secure the material being fastened. Never hold it in your hand or across
your legs. Unstable support can cause loss of control and injury.
Avoid accidental starting. Be sure the forward/reverse switch is in the
off position before inserting battery pack. Carrying appliances with your
finger on the switch or inserting the battery pack into an appliance with
the switch on invites accidents.
Remove battery pack before changing accessories. Accidental starting
may occur because battery appliances with a battery inserted are in the
operative condition.
Be prepared for a reaction torque when “seating” or removing a fastener.
The tool housing may tend to twist in the opposite direction of bit rotation
when “seating” or removing a fastener depending on the torque setting of
the tool.
Do not use dull or damaged impact sockets and accessories. When
installing an accessory, insert the impact socket well onto the output
drive. Be sure the output drive has locked onto the socket correctly.
Do not run the tool while carrying it at your side. A spinning bit could
become entangled with clothing and injury may result.
Place the tool onto the fastener only when the tool is switched off.
Rotating wrench tools can slide off the fastener.
Be careful when driving long screws there is a risk of sliding off the fastener
head depending on type of socket or bit used. First test the run-down of a
fastener and pay attention during the screw driving process to ensure you
do not injury yourself of the tool bit or socket slides off of the fastener.
