follow maintenance instructions may create a risk of electric shock or injury.
SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES FOR CORDLESS DRILL / DRIVERS
1. Know your cordless drill / driver. Read operator's manual carefully. Learn its
applications and limitations, as well as the specific potential hazards related to
this tool. Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock, fire, or
serious injury.
2. BE SURE that twist drill bits, screwdriver bits and other accessory attachments are
properly and securely mounted in the chuck jaws BEFORE operating the drill / driver.
BATTERY PACK
3. ALWAYS carefully inspect the material you are going to drill / drive into. Drilling /driving
CDT218GU-104(ABP318GU)
into nails, pipes and electrical wires can cause serious personal injury.
Can also use 1323509,
4. HOLD DRILL / DRIVER by insulated gripping surfaces (handles) when performing
1323520, 130260001,
an operation where the tool may drill / drive into hidden wiring. Contact with a
130139020 and 130139021
"live" wire will make the exposed metal parts of the tool "live" and shock the operator.
5. NEVER hold the piece being drilled in your hands or across your legs.
It is important to support and clamp the workpiece properly in order to minimize body
exposure, bit binding, or loss of control.
6. Maintain a firm grip on the drill / driver to resist starting torque.
7. Use sharp accessory bits only. For drilling in WOOD use twist drill bits, spade bits,
or power auger bits. For METAL use high-speed steel twist drill bits. For MASONRY
use carbide-tipped bits. For PLASTIC use low drilling speeds for material with a low
melting point. For SCREWDRIVING use the proper size screwdriving bit for the
screwdriving application such as Phillips, slotted and square recess bits.
8. BE SURE the material to be drilled is stationary, anchored or clamped firmly. If drilling
thin material, use a back-up block to prevent damage to the material.
9. ONLY USE the specifically listed battery pack and charging stand listed on page 6 of
this manual. Use of any other battery pack or charging stand / transformer can create
risk of injury and fire.
10. Cordless tools do not have to be plugged into an electrical outlet; therefore,
they are always in operating condition. Be aware of possible hazards when not
using your battery operated tool or when changing accessories. Following this
rule will reduce the risk of electric shock, fire, or serious personal injury.
11. Do not place battery tools or their batteries near fire or heat. This will reduce the
risk of explosion and possible injury.
12. Do not crush, drop or damage battery pack. Never use a battery pack or charging
stand/transformer that has been dropped or received a sharp blow. A damaged
battery pack is subject to explosion. Properly dispose of a dropped or damaged battery
pack immediately.
