SAFETY GENERALSAFETYINSTRUCTIONS WARNING!Readallsafetywarningsandall

instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and instructions

may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury. Save

allwarningsandinstructionsforfuturereference. The

term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your mains-

operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless)

a) Keepworkareacleanandwelllit. Cluttered 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 dust or fumes.

c) Keepchildrenandbystandersawaywhileoperating

apowertool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.

Unmodied plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of

b) 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.

c) Donotexposepowertoolstorainorwetconditions.

Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of

parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of

of inattention while operating power tools may result in

serious personal injury.

b) Usepersonalprotectiveequipment.Alwayswear

eyeprotection. Protective equipment such as dust

mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing

protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce

e) Donotoverreach.Keepproperfootingandbalance

atalltimes. This enables better control of the power tool

in unexpected situations.

f) Dressproperly.Donotwearlooseclothingor

jewellery.Keepyourhair,clothingandglovesaway

frommovingparts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair

can be caught in moving parts.

g) Ifdevicesareprovidedfortheconnectionofdust

extractionandcollectionfacilities,ensuretheseare

connectedandproperlyused. Use of dust collection

can reduce dust-related hazards.

a) Donotforcethepowertool.Usethecorrectpower

b) 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.9

c) 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.

d) Storeidlepowertoolsoutofthereachofchildren

anddonotallowpersonsunfamiliarwiththepower

Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained

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. Properly

maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less

likely to bind and are easier to control.

g) Usethepowertool,accessoriesandtoolbitsetc.,in

accordancewiththeseinstructions,takinginto

accounttheworkingconditionsandtheworktobe

performed. Use of the power tool for operations dierent

from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.

a) Haveyourpowertoolservicedbyaqualifiedrepair

is considered carcinogenic)

• Never use the tool when cord is damaged; have it

replaced by a qualied person

• Alwaysdisconnectplugfrompowersourcebefore

makinganyadjustmentorchanginganyaccessory

• SKIL can assure awless functioning of the tool only

when original accessories are used

• Use only accessories with an allowable speed matching

at least the highest no-load speed of the tool

• Use completely unrolled and safe extension cords with a

capacity of 16 Amps (U.K. 13 Amps)

• Avoid damage that can be caused by screws, nails and

other elements in your workpiece; remove them before

• Securetheworkpiece (a workpiece clamped with

clamping devices or in a vice is held more securely than

• Usesuitabledetectorstofindhiddenutilitylinesor

callthelocalutilitycompanyforassistance (contact

with electric lines can lead to re or electrical shock;

damaging a gas line can result in an explosion;

penetrating a water pipe will cause property damage or

an electrical shock)

• Dust from material such as paint containing lead, some

wood species, minerals and metal may be harmful

(contact with or inhalation of the dust may cause allergic

reactions and/or respiratory diseases to the operator or

bystanders); wearadustmaskandworkwithadust

extractiondevicewhenconnectable

as oak and beech dust) especially in conjunction with

additives for wood conditioning; wearadustmaskand

make exposed metal parts of the power tool “live” and

could give the operator an electric shock)

• Always keep the cord away from moving parts of the tool

• In case of electrical or mechanical malfunction,

immediately switch o the tool and disconnect the plug

• If the cord is damaged or cut through while working, do

not touch the cord, but immediately disconnect the plug

• If the drill bit becomes unexpectedly jammed (causing a

sudden, dangerous reaction), immediately switch o the

- for drilling in wood, metal and plastic as well as for

screwdriving the corresponding adapter should be

used (see: Application Advice)

- the hammer mechanism is activated by applying a

slight pressure on the tool when the drill bit is in

contact with the workpiece

- best impact drilling results can be obtained by only a

slight pressure on the tool needed to keep the

automatic clutch engaged; drilling performance will not

improve by applying more pressure on the tool

• Measured in accordance with EN 60745 the sound

pressure level of this tool is 90 dB(A) and the sound

power level 101 dB(A) (standard deviation: 3 dB),

and the vibration ✱ (hand-arm method; uncertainty

✱ when impact drilling in concrete 9.0 m/s²

✱ when chiseling 10.6 m/s²

• The vibration emission level has been measured in

accordance with a standardised test given in EN 60745; it

may be used to compare one tool with another and as a

preliminary assessment of exposure to vibration when

using the tool for the applications mentioned
