In addition to the safety guidelines in this user manual, please be

absolutely sure to observe the regulations for operating the cordless

hammer drill that are in force in your country.

In addition to the safety instructions in this user manual and the special

regulations for your country, the generally recognised technical rules

for operating this cordless hammer drill must be observed.

General power tool safety instructions

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) power tool.

Work area safety

a) Keep your 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.

Electrical safety

a) Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in

any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded)

power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk

of electric shock.

Safety

5401203-Hammerdril_man 16.12.16 14:28 Seite 11

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 electric shock.

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) 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.

f) If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use

a residual current device (RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD

reduces the risk of electric shock.

Personal safety

a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense

when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you

are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication.

moment 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

personal injuries.

c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-

position before connecting to power source and/or battery pack,

picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your

finger on the switch or energising power tools that have the switch

on invites accidents.

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.

Safety

5401203-Hammerdril_man 16.12.16 14:28 Seite 12

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.

Power tool use and care

a) 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.

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.

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 tool or these instruc-

tions 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 mov-

ing 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.

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.

Safety

5401203-Hammerdril_man 16.12.16 14:28 Seite 13

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

with these instructions, taking into account the working con-

ditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for

operations different from those intended

could result in a

hazardous situation.

Battery tool use and care

a) Recharge only with the charger specified by the manufacturer.

A charger that is suitable for one type of battery pack may create a

risk of fire when used with another battery pack.

b) Use power tools only with specifically designated battery packs.

Use of any other battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire.

c) When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other

metal objects, like paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or

other small metal objects, that can make a connection from

one terminal to another. Shorting the battery terminals together

may cause burns or a fire.

d) Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the

battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally occurs, flush with

water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help.

Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.

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.

Special safety instructions for hammer drills

a) Wear ear protectors when impact drilling. Exposure to noise can

cause hearing loss.

b) Use auxiliary handle(s), if supplied with the tool. Loss of control

can cause personal injury.

Safety

5401203-Hammerdril_man 16.12.16 14:28 Seite 14

c) Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when

performing an operation where the cutting accessory may

contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Cutting accessory
