Work safety
• Do not use the machine in bad weather, such as dense
fog, heavy rain, strong wind, intense cold, etc. Working in
bad weather is tiring and can lead to dangerous
conditions, e.g. slippery surfaces.
• Never start to work with the machine before the working
area is clear and you have a firm foothold. Look out for any
obstacles with unexpected movement. Ensure that no
material can become loose and fall, causing injury when
operating the machine.
• Always check the rear side of the surface where the drill
bit will emerge when drilling right through. Secure and
cordon off the area and make sure that no one can be
injured or material damaged.
Electrical safety
WARNING! There is always a risk of shocks
!
from electrically powered machines. Avoid
unfavourable weather conditions and body
contact with lightning conductors and metal
objects. Always follow the instructions in the
Operator's manual to avoid damage.
WARNING! Do not wash the machine with
!
water, as water can enter the electrical
system or the engine and cause damage to
the machine or short circuit.
• Never use the tool without the ground fault circuit
interrupter delivered with the tool.
• The machine should be connected to an earthed outlet
socket.
• Check that the mains voltage corresponds with that stated
on the rating plate on the machine.
• Check that the cord and extension cord are intact and in
good condition. Never use the machine if any cable or
plug is damaged, but hand it in to an authorized service
workshop for repair.
• To avoid overheating do not use the extension cord while
it is rolled up.
• Do not expose the power tool to rain. Water entering a
power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
• The power tool should not be exposed to more moisture
than what is provided by the water system. The water
system cools the drill bit with clean water. Make sure that
no drill slurry enters the machine.
• Ensure the cord is behind you when you start to use the
machine so that the cord will not be damaged.
• Always unplug the machine during longer work breaks.
Drilling outdoors
• Always use extension cables that are approved for
outdoor use.
