IMPORTANT INFORMATION Safety Rules for Power Tools The use of the Safety Seal of the Power Tool Institute assures you that this tool is produced and tested in accordance with applicable national safety standards. Operational safety, however, depends to a great extent upon the user of the tool. Please pay close attention to the following rules. 1. KNOW YOUR POWER TOOL — Read owner's manual carefully. Learn its applications and limitations as well as the specific potential hazards peculiar to this tool. 2. GROUND ALL TOOLS - UNLESS DOUBLE-INSULATED. If tool is equipped with three-prong plug, it should be plugged into a three-hole electrical receptacle. If adapter is used to accommodate two-prong receptacle, the adapter wire must be attached to a known ground. Never remove third prong. 3. KEEP WORK AREA CLEAN. Cluttered areas and benches invite accidents. 4. AVOID DANGEROUS ENVIRONMENT. Don’t expose power tools to rain. Don’t use power tool in damp or wet locations. And keep work area well lit. 5. KEEP CHILDREN AWAY. All visitors should be kept safe distance from work area. 6. STORE IDLE TOOLS. When not in use, tools should be stored in dry, high or locked-up place — out of reach of children. 7. DON'T FORCE TOOL. It will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed. 8. USE RIGHT TOOL. Don't force small tool or attachment to do the job of a heavy duty tool. 9. WEAR PROPER APPAREL. No loose clothing or jewelry to get caught in moving parts. Rubber gloves and footwear are recommended when working outdoors. 10. USE SAFETY GLASSES with most tools. Also face or dust mask if cutting operation is dusty. 11. DON’T ABUSE CORD. Never carry tool by cord or yank it to disconnect from receptacle. Keep cord from heat, oil and sharp edges. 12. SECURE WORK. Use clamps or a vise to hold work. It’s safer than using your hand and it frees both hands to operate tool. 13. DON’T OVERREACH. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. 14. MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE.

Be sure switch is off when plugging in. 18. OUTDOOR USE EXTENSION CORDS. When tool is used outdoors, use only extension cords suitable for use outdoors and so marked. s IMPORTANT INFORMATION Grounding This tool should be grounded while in use to protect the operator from electric shock. The tool is equipped with an approved three-conductor cord and three-prong grounding type plug to fit the proper grounding type receptacle. The green (or green and yellow) conductor in the cord is the grounding wire. Never connect the green (or green and yellow) wire to a live terminal. If your unit is for use on less than 150 volts, it has a plug like that shown in Figure A. If it is for use on 150 to 250 volts, it has a plug like that shown in Figure D. An adapter, Figures B and C, is available for connecting Figure A plugs to two-prong receptacles. The green-colored rigid ear, lug, etc., must be connected to a permanent ground such as a properly grounded outlet box. No adapter is available for a plug as shown in Figure D.

B. C. D. We recommend that you NEVER disassemble the tool or try to do any rewiring in the electrical system. Any such repairs should be performed only by B&D Service Centers or other qualified service organizations. Should you be determined to make a repair yourself, remember that the green colored wire is the “grounding” wire. Never connect this green wire to a “live” terminal. If you replace the plug on the power cord, be sure to connect the green wire only to the grounding (longest) prong on a 3-prong plug. If you use an extension cord, be sure that it is a 3-conductor, grounding type cord. Grounding must be continuous from the tool plug to the grounded receptacle. EXTENSION CORD When using this drill at a considerable distance from power source, a 3-conductor, grounding-type extension cord of adequate size must be used for safety, and to prevent loss of power and over-heating. For a 120-volt tool, the minimum size of the wires in any extension cord up to 75 feet long must be 18-gauge (American Wire Gauge). If the total extension cord length i...
