Power tool use and care
• Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power
tool for your application. The correct power tool will
do the job better and safer at the rate for which it
was designed.
• 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.
• Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or
remove the battery pack, if detachable, 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.
• 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.
• Maintain power tools and accessories. 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.
• Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are
less likely to bind and are easier to control.
• 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.
• Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean and
free from oil and grease. Slippery handles and
grasping surfaces do not allow for safe handling and
control of the tool in unexpected situations.
Service
• 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.
• Never service damaged battery packs. Service of
battery packs should only be performed by the
manufacturer or authorized service providers.
Diamond drill safety warnings
• When performing drilling that requires the use of
water, route the water away from the operator's work
area or use a liquid collection device. Such
precautionary measures keep the operator's work
area dry and reduce the risk of electrical shock.
• Operate power tool by insulated grasping surfaces,
when performing an operation where the cutting
accessory may contact hidden wiring or its own cord.
Cutting accessory contacting a "live" wire may make
898 - 002 - 20.06.2019
exposed metal parts of the power tool "live" and
could give the operator an electric shock.
• Wear hearing protection when diamond drilling.
Exposure to noise can cause hearing loss.
• When the bit is jammed, stop applying downward
pressure and turn off the tool. Investigate and take
corrective actions to eliminate the cause of the bit
jamming.
• When restarting a diamond drill in the workpiece,
check that the bit rotates freely before starting. If the
bit is jammed, it may not start, may overload the tool,
or may cause the diamond drill too release from the
workpiece.
• When securing the drill stand with ancors and
fasteners to the workpiece, ensure that the
anchoring used is capable of holding and restraining
the machine during use. If the workpiece is weak or
porous, the anchor may pull out causing the drill
stand to release from the workpiece.
• When the drilling through walls or ceilings, ensure to
protect persons and the work area on the other side.
The bit may extend through the hole or the core may
fall out on the other side.
• When drilling overhead, always use the liquid
collection device specified in the instructions. Do not
allow water to flow into the tool. Water entering the
power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
