General safety precautions
WARNING! Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow the
warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
IMPORTANT! 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
• Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or 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.
• Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.
Electrical safety
• 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.
• Do not 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 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.
• 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.
• If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) protected supply. Use of an GFCI reduces the risk of electric shock.
Personal safety
• 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. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
• 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.
• 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 energizing power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
• 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.
• Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
• 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.
• If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure that these are connected and properly used. Use of
dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.

Work safety
Work area 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! Do not pressure wash the machine, as water can enter the
electrical system or the engine and cause damage to the machine or short
circuit.
• 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. The water system cools the drill bit with clean water.
• Ensure the cord is behind you when you start to use the machine so that the cord will not be damaged.
Personal safety
• Remain at a distance from the drill bit when the motor is running. A rotating drill bit can entail a risk of serious injury.
• Make sure that no pipes or electrical cables are routed in the area to be drilled.
• Never leave the machine unsupervised with the motor running.
• Always unplug the machine during longer work breaks.
• Never work alone, always ensure there is another person close at hand. Apart from being able to receive help to assemble the machine, you can also get help
