GENERAL SAFETY RULES  
Avoid accidental starting. Be sure switch is off  
WARNING:  
before plugging in. Carrying tools with your finger on  
the switch or plugging in tools that have the switch on  
invites accidents.  
Read and understand all instructions. Failure to follow  
all instructions listed below, may result in electric shock,  
fire and/or serious personal injury.  
Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before turning  
the tool on. A wrench or a key that is left attached to a  
rotating part of the tool may result in personal injury.  
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS  
WORK AREA  
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance  
at all times. Proper footing and balance enables better  
control of the tool in unexpected situations.  
Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection.  
Dust mask, nonskid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing  
protection must be used for appropriate conditions.  
Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Contain long  
hair. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be drawn  
into air vents.  
Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered  
benches and dark areas invite accidents.  
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.  
Do not use on a ladder or unstable support. Stable  
footing on a solid surface enables better control of the  
tool in unexpected situations.  
Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away while  
operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to  
lose control.  
TOOL USE AND CARE  
ELECTRICAL SAFETY  
Use clamps or other practical way to secure and  
support the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding  
the work by hand or against your body is unstable and  
may lead to loss of control.  
Do not force tool. Use the correct tool for your appli-  
cation. The correct tool will do the job better and safer  
at the rate for which it is designed.  
Double insulated tools are equipped with a polarized  
plug (one blade is wider than the other). This plug will  
fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does  
not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still  
does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install a  
polarized outlet. Do not change the plug in any way.  
Double insulation  
eliminates the need for the three-  
wire grounded power cord and grounded power supply  
system.  
Do not use tool if switch does not turn it on or off. Any  
tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous  
and must be repaired.  
Disconnect the plug from power source before making  
any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing the  
tool. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of  
starting the tool accidentally.  
Store idle tools out of the reach of children and other  
untrained persons. Tools are dangerous in the hands of  
untrained users.  
Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting tools sharp  
and clean. Properly maintained tools with sharp cutting  
edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.  
Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces such as  
pipes, radiators, ranges, and refrigerators. There is an  
increased risk of electric shock if your body is grounded.  
Don’t expose power tools to rain or wet conditions.  
Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric  
shock.  
Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord to carry the  
tools or pull the plug from an outlet. Keep cord away  
from heat, oil, sharp edges, or moving parts. Replace  
damaged cords immediately. Damaged cords increase  
the risk of electric shock.  
Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts,  
breakage of parts, and any other condition that may  
affect the tool’s operation. If damaged, have the tool  
serviced before using. Many accidents are caused by  
poorly maintained tools.  
When operating a power tool outside, use an outdoor  
extension cord marked “W-A” or “W”. These cords  
are rated for outdoor use and reduce the risk of electric  
shock.  
PERSONAL SAFETY  
Use only accessories that are recommended by the  
manufacturer for your model. Accessories that may be  
suitable for one tool, may become hazardous when used  
on another tool.  
Keep the tool and its handle dry, clean and free from  
oil and grease. Always use a clean cloth when clean-  
ing. Never use brake fluids, gasoline, petroleum-based  
products, or any strong solvents to clean your tool.  
Following this rule will reduce the risk of loss of con-  
trol and deterioration of the enclosure plastic.  
Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common  
sense when operating a power tool. Do not use tool  
while tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol,  
or medication. A moment of inattention while operating  
power tools may result in serious personal injury.  
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry.  
Contain long hair. Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves  
away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long  
hair can be caught in moving parts.

GENERAL SAFETY RULES  
When servicing a tool, use only identical replacement  
SERVICE  
parts. Follow instructions in the Maintenance section  
of this manual. Use of unauthorized parts or failure to  
follow Maintenance Instructions may create a risk of  
shock or injury.  
Tool service must be performed only by qualified  
repair personnel. Service or maintenance performed by  
unqualified personnel may result in a risk of injury.  
SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES  
Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces when  
performing an operation where the cutting tool may  
contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Contact with a  
“live” wire will make exposed metal parts of the cutting  
tool “live” and shock the operator.  
Check damaged parts. Before further use of the  
tool, a guard or other part that is damaged should  
be carefully checked to determine that it will operate  
properly and perform its intended function. Check for  
alignment of moving parts, binding of moving parts,  
breakage of parts, mounting, and any other conditions  
that may affect its operation. A guard or other part that  
is damaged should be properly repaired or replaced  
by an authorized service center. Following this rule will  
reduce the risk of shock, fire, or serious injury.  
Know your power tool. Read operator’s manual care-  
fully. Learn its applications and limitations, as well  
as the specific potential hazards related to this tool.  
Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock,  
fire, or serious injury.  
Make sure your extension cord is in good condition.  
When using an extension cord, be sure to use one  
heavy enough to carry the current your product will  
draw. A wire gauge size (A.W.G.) of at least 16 is  
recommended for an extension cord 50 feet or less  
in length. A cord exceeding 100 feet is not recom-  
mended. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The  
smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord. An  
undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting  
in loss of power and overheating.  
Always wear safety glasses. Everyday eyeglasses  
have only impact-resistant lenses; they are NOT safety  
glasses. Following this rule will reduce the risk of serious  
personal injury.  
Protect your lungs. Wear a face or dust mask if the  
operation is dusty. Following this rule will reduce the  
risk of serious personal injury.  
Protect your hearing. Wear hearing protection during  
extended periods of operation. Following this rule will  
reduce the risk of serious personal injury.  
If the power supply cord is damaged, it must be re-  
placed only by the manufacturer or by an authorized  
service center to avoid risk.  
Inspect tool cords periodically and, if damaged, have  
repaired at your nearest Authorized Service Center.  
Constantly stay aware of cord location. Following this  
rule will reduce the risk of electric shock or fire.  
Inspect for and remove all nails from lumber before  
using this tool. Following this rule will reduce the risk of  
serious personal injury.  
Save these instructions. Refer to them frequently and  
use them to instruct others who may use this product. If  
you loan someone this product, loan them these instruc-  
tions also.  
WARNING:  
Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities contains chemicals  
known to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:  
• lead from lead-based paints,  
• crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, and  
• arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber.  
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to  
these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks  
that are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.

ELECTRICAL  
DOUBLE INSULATION  
EXTENSION CORDS  
Double insulation is a concept in safety in electric power  
tools, which eliminates the need for the usual three-  
wire grounded power cord. All exposed metal parts are  
isolated from the internal metal motor components with  
protecting insulation. Double insulated tools do not need  
to be grounded.  
When using a power tool at a considerable distance from  
a power source, be sure to use an extension cord that has  
the capacity to handle the current the tool will draw. An  
undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage, resulting in  
overheating and loss of power. Use the chart to determine  
the minimum wire size required in an extension cord. Only  
round jacketed cords listed by Underwriter’s Laboratories  
(UL) should be used.  
WARNING:  
When working outdoors with a product, use an extension  
cord that is designed for outside use. This type of cord is  
designated with “WA” on the cord’s jacket.  
The double insulated system is intended to protect the  
user from shock resulting from a break in the product’s  
internal insulation. Observe all normal safety precautions  
to avoid electrical shock.  
Before using any extension cord, inspect it for loose or  
exposed wires and cut or worn insulation.  
NOTE:Servicingofaproductwithdoubleinsulationrequires

DRILLING  
See Figure 9.  
Depress and release the switch trigger to be sure the drill  
is in the OFF position before connecting it to a power  
supply.  
Check the direction of rotation selector for the correct  
setting (forward or reverse).  
Secure the material to be drilled in a vise or with clamps  
to keep it from turning as the drill bit rotates.  
Plug the drill into power supply. Hold the drill firmly and  
place the bit at the point to be drilled.  
Depress the switch trigger to start the drill.  
Move the drill bit into the workpiece, applying only enough  
pressure to keep the bit cutting. Do not force the drill or  
apply side pressure to elongate a hole. Let the tool do  
the work.  
WARNING:  
Be prepared for binding at bit breakthrough. When these  
situations occur, the drill has a tendency to grab and kick  
in the opposite direction and could cause loss of control  
when breaking through material. If not prepared, this loss  
of control can result in possible serious injury.  
Fig. 9  
When drilling hard, smooth surfaces, use a center punch  
to mark the desired hole location. This will prevent the  
drill bit from slipping off-center as the hole is started.  
When drilling metals, use a light oil on the drill bit to keep  
it from overheating. The oil will prolong the life of the bit  
and increase the drilling action.  
If the bit jams in the workpiece or if the drill stalls, stop  
the tool immediately. Remove the bit from the workpiece  
and determine the reason for jamming.
