General Power Tool Safety

Read all safety warnings and all

instructions. Failure to follow

the warnings and instructions may result in elec-

tric shock, fire and/or serious injury.

Save all warnings and instructions for future

The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to

your mains-operated (corded) power tool or bat-

tery-operated (cordless) power tool.

a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Clut-

tered or dark areas invite accidents.

b) Do not operate power tools in explosive

atmospheres, such as in the presence of

flammable liquids, gases, or dust. Power

tools create sparks which may ignite the

c) Keep children and bystanders away while

operating a power tool. Distractions can

cause you to lose control.

2) Electrical safety

a) Power tool plugs must match the outlet.

Never modify the plug in any way. Do not

use any adapter plugs with earthed

(grounded) power tools. Unmodified

plugs and matching outlets will reduce the

risk of electric shock.

b) Avoid body contact with earthed or

grounded surfaces, such as pipes, radia-

tors, ranges and refrigerators. There is an

increased risk of electric shock if your

body is earthed or grounded.

c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet

conditions. Water entering a power tool

will increase the risk of electric shock.

d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord

for carrying, pulling or unplugging the

power tool. Keep cord away from heat,

oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Dam-

aged or entangled cords increase the risk

e) When operating a power tool outdoors,

use an extension cord suitable for out-

door use. Use of a cord suitable for out-

door use reduces the risk of electric shock.

f) If operating a power tool in a damp loca-

tion is unavoidable, use a ground fault cir-

cuit interrupter (GFCI) or an earth leak-

age circuit breaker (ELCB). Use of a GFCI

or an ELCB reduces the risk of electric

a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and

use common sense when operating a

power tool. Do not use a power tool while

you are tired or under the influence of

drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment

of inattention while operating power tools

may result in serious personal injury.

b) Use personal protective equipment. Al-

ways wear eye protection. Protective

equipment such as dusk mask, non-skid

safety shoes, hard hat or hearing protec-

tion used for appropriate conditions will

reduce personal injuries.

c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure

the switch is in the off position before

connecting to power source and/or bat-

tery pack, picking up or carrying the tool.

Carrying power tools with your finger on

the switch or energizing power tools that

have the switch on invites accidents.

d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench be-

fore turning the power tool on. A wrench

or a key that is left attached to a rotating

part of the power tool may result in per-

e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing

and balance at all times. This enables bet-

ter control of the power tool in unexpected

f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose cloth-

ing or jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing,

and gloves away from moving parts.

Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be

caught in moving parts.

g) If devices are provided for the connection

of dust extraction and collection facili-

ties, ensure these are connected and

properly used. Use of dust collection can

reduce dust-related hazards.

4) Power tool use and care

a) Do not force the power tool. Use the cor-

rect power tool for your application. The

correct power tool will do the job better

and safer at the rate for which it is de-

b) Do not use the power tool if the switch

does not turn it on or off. Any power tool

that cannot be controlled with the switch

is dangerous and must be repaired.

c) Disconnect the plug from the power

source and/or the battery pack from the

power tool before making any adjust-

ments, changing accessories, or storing

power tools. Such preventive safety mea-

sures reduce the risk of starting the power

d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of

children and do not allow persons unfa-

miliar with the power tool or these in-

structions to operate the power tool.

Power tools are dangerous in the hands of

e) Maintain power tools. Check for misalign-

ment or binding of moving parts, break-

age of parts and any other condition that

may affect the power tool’s operation. If

damaged, have the power tool repaired

before use. Many accidents are caused by

poorly maintained power tools.

f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Prop-

erly maintained cutting tools with sharp

cutting edges are less likely to bind and are

g) Use the power tool, accessories, tool bits

etc. in accordance with these instruc-

tions, taking into account the working

conditions and the work to be performed.

Use of the power tool for operations differ-

ent from those intended could result in a

hazardous situation.

5) Battery tool use and care

a) Recharge only with the charger specified

by the manufacturer. A charger that is

suitable for one type of battery pack may

create a risk of fire when used with anoth-

b) Use power tools only with specifically

designated battery packs. Use of any oth-

er battery packs may create a risk of injury

c) When battery pack is not in use, keep it

away from other metal objects, like paper

clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or other

small metal objects, that can make a con-

nection from one terminal to another.

Shorting the battery terminals together

may cause burns or a fire.

d) Under abusive conditions, liquid may be

ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If

contact accidentally occurs, flush with

water. In liquid contacts eyes, additional-

ly seek medical help. Liquid ejected from

the battery may cause irritation or burns.

a) Have your power tool serviced by a quali-

fied repair person using only identical re-

placement parts. This will ensure that the

safety of the power tool is maintained.

Power Tool-specific Safety

f Hold the power tool with a firm grip. High re-

action torque can briefly occur while driving in

and loosening screws.

f Secure the workpiece. A workpiece clamped

with clamping devices or in a vice is held more

secure than by hand.

f Avoid unintentional switching on. Ensure the

On/Off switch is in the off position before in-

serting battery pack. Carrying the power tool

with your finger on the On/Off switch or in-

serting the battery pack into power tools that

have the switch on invites accidents.

The speed of the switched on power tool can be

variably adjusted, depending on how far the

On/Off switch 5 is pressed.

Light pressure on the On/Off switch 5 results in

a low rotational speed. Further pressure on the

switch results in an increase in speed.

Fully Automatic Spindle Locking (Auto-lock)

When the On/Off switch 5 is not pressed, the

drill spindle and thus the tool holder are locked.

This enables screws to be screwed in, even when

the battery is empty and allows for the tool to be

used as a screwdriver.

Temperature Dependent Overload Protection

When using as intended for, the power tool can-

not be subject to overload. When the load is too

high or the allowable battery temperature range

of 0–70 °C is exceeded, the speed is reduced.

The power tool will not run at full speed until

reaching the allowable battery temperature.
