User manual MAKITA HR2475

[. . . ] If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) protected supply. 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. [. . . ] Table 1 shows the correct size to use depending on cord length and nameplate ampere rating. DO NOT let comfort or familiarity with product (gained from repeated use) replace strict adherence to safety rules for the subject product. If you use this tool unsafely or incorrectly, you can suffer serious personal injury. 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 contacting a "live" wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool "live" and could give the Wear a hard hat (safety helmet), safety glasses and/or face shield. it is also highly recommended that you wear a dust mask and thickly padded gloves. In cold weather or when the tool has not been used for a long time, let the tool warm up for a while by operating it under no load. Do not touch the bit or parts close to the bit immediately after operation; they may be extremely hot and could burn your skin. No load speed Class II Construction revolutions or reciprocation per minute number of blow CAUTION: Always be sure that the tool is switched off and unplugged before adjusting or checking function on the tool. MISUSE or failure to follow the safety rules stated in this instruction manual may cause serious personal injury. CAUTION: Before plugging in the tool, always check to see that the switch trigger actuates properly and returns to the "OFF" position when released. For continuous operation, pull the switch trigger and then push in the lock button. To stop the tool from the locked position, pull the switch trigger fully, then release it. Use the reversing switch only after the tool comes to a complete stop. Changing the direction of rotation before the tool stops may damage the tool. â· When you operate the tool in counterclockwise rotation, the switch trigger is pulled only halfway and the tool runs at half speed. If you operate the tool with the knob positioned half-way between the mode symbols, the tool may be damaged. â· Do not rotate the action mode changing knob when the tool is running under load. To avoid rapid wear on the mode change mechanism, be sure that the action mode changing knob is always positively located in one of the three action mode positions. For drilling in wood, metal or plastic materials, depress the lock button and rotate the action mode changing knob to the symbol. The torque limiter will actuate when a certain torque level is reached. CAUTION: As soon as the torque limiter actuates, switch off the tool immediately. [. . . ] CAUTION: Never use "rotation with hammering" when the drill chuck assembly is installed on the tool. In fact, this excessive pressure will only serve to damage the tip of your bit, decrease the tool performance and shorten the service life of the tool. there is a tremendous twisting force exerted on the tool/bit at the time of hole breakthrough. Hold the tool firmly and exert care when the bit begins to break through the workpiece. [. . . ]
