power tools with your finger on the  
switch or energizing power tools that  
have the switch on invites accidents.  
c. Do not expose power tools to rain  
or wet conditions. Water entering  
a power tool will increase the risk of  
electric shock.  
d. Remove any adjusting key or wrench  
before turning the power tool on.  
A wrench or a key left attached to a  
rotating part of the power tool may result  
in personal injury.  
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. Damaged  
or entangled cords increase the risk of  
electric shock.  
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 jewelry. Keep your  
hair, clothing and gloves away  
from moving parts. Loose clothes,  
jewelry or long hair can be caught in  
moving parts.  
e. When operating a power tool  
outdoors, use an extension cord  
suitable for outdoor use. Use of a  
cord suitable for outdoor use reduces  
the risk of electric shock.

Drill and Impact Drill Safety  
Warnings  
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.  
1. Wear ear protectors with impact  
drills. Exposure to noise can cause  
hearing loss.  
2. Use Auxiliary Handle (4) supplied  
with the Drill. Loss of control can cause  
personal injury.  
3. Hold power tools 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 tool ″live″ and  
shock the operator.  
d. Store idle power tools out of  
the reach of children and do not  
allow persons unfamiliar with the  
power tool or these instructions  
to operate the power tool. Power  
tools are dangerous in the hands of  
untrained users.  
e. Maintain power tools. Check for  
misalignment or binding of moving  
parts, breakage 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.  
4. Maintain labels and nameplates on  
the tool. These carry important safety  
information. If unreadable or missing,  
contact Harbor Freight Tools for  
a replacement.  
5. Avoid unintentional starting. Prepare to  
begin work before turning on the tool.  
6. Do not lay the tool down until it has come  
to a complete stop. Moving parts can  
grab the surface and pull the tool out of  
your control.  
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 different  
from those intended could result in a  
hazardous situation.  
7. When using a handheld power tool,  
maintain a firm grip on the tool with both  
hands to resist starting torque.  
8. Do not leave the tool unattended when  
it is plugged into an electrical outlet.  
Turn off the tool, and unplug it from its  
electrical outlet before leaving.  
9. This product is not a toy. Keep it out of  
reach of children.  
5. Service  
a. Have your power tool serviced by a  
qualified repair person using only  
identical replacement parts. This will  
ensure that the safety of the power tool  
is maintained.

occur. It must be understood by the  
operator that common sense and caution  
are factors which cannot be built into  
this product, but must be supplied by  
the operator.  
• Properly maintain and inspect to avoid  
electrical shock.  
Vibration Safety  
• Any power cord must be properly  
grounded. Ground Fault Circuit  
Interrupter (GFCI) should also be  
implemented – it prevents sustained  
electrical shock.  
This tool vibrates during use. Repeated  
or long-term exposure to vibration may  
cause temporary or permanent physical  
injury, particularly to the hands, arms  
and shoulders. To reduce the risk of  
vibration-related injury:

GROUNDING  
TO PREVENT  
ELECTRIC SHOCK  
AND DEATH FROM INCORRECT  
GROUNDING WIRE  
Extension Cords  
CONNECTION:  
1. Grounded tools require a three wire  
extension cord. Double Insulated  
tools can use either a two or three wire  
extension cord.  
Check with a qualified electrician  
if you are in doubt as to whether  
the outlet is properly grounded.  
Do not modify the power cord  
plug provided with the tool.  
Never remove the grounding  
prong from the plug. Do not use  
the tool if the power cord or plug  
is damaged. If damaged, have it  
repaired by a service facility  
before use. If the plug will not fit  
the outlet, have a proper outlet  
installed by a qualified  
2. As the distance from the supply outlet  
increases, you must use a heavier gauge  
extension cord. Using extension cords  
with inadequately sized wire causes a  
serious drop in voltage, resulting in loss  
of power and possible tool damage.  
(See Table A.)  
3. The smaller the gauge number of the  
wire, the greater the capacity of the cord.  
For example, a 14 gauge cord can carry  
a higher current than a 16 gauge cord.

Double Insulated Tools: Tools with  
Two Prong Plugs  
4. When using more than one extension  
cord to make up the total length, make  
sure each cord contains at least the  
minimum wire size required. (See  
Table A.)  
5. If you are using one extension cord for  
more than one tool, add the nameplate  
amperes and use the sum to determine  
the required minimum cord size. (See  
Table A.)

6. If you are using an extension cord  
outdoors, make sure it is marked with the  
suffix “W-A” (“W” in Canada) to indicate it  
is acceptable for outdoor use.  
7. Make sure the extension cord is properly  
wired and in good electrical condition.  
Always replace a damaged extension  
cord or have it repaired by a qualified  
electrician before using it.

Concrete Drilling Tips  
1. Use carbide or specialty bits for  
concrete drilling.  
4. To prevent or reduce “break out” when  
bit penetrates work piece, clamp a piece  
of scrap material to back of work piece.  
2. Rock and masonry are generally drilled  
in the hammer (impact) drilling mode.  
3. When drilling in walls, start with regular  
drilling and, once tile is pierced, continue  
with hammer mode.  
5. Do not lock Trigger in the ON position, as  
the bit can easily jam in wood and motor  
must be stopped quickly.
