performance. Follow instructions for lubricating and changing accessories.
Keep handles dry, clean, and free from oil and grease.

17. OUTDOOR USE EXTENSION CORDS. When tool is used outdoors, use only
extension cords intended for use outdoors and so marked.
18. STAY ALERT. Watch what you are doing. Use common sense. Do not operate
tool when you are tired.
19. CHECK DAMAGED PARTS. Before further use of the tool, a guard or other
part that is damaged should be carefully checked to determine that it will
operate properly and perform its intended function. Check for alignment of
moving parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, mounting, and any
other conditions that may affect its operation. A guard or other part that is
damaged should be properly repaired by an authorized service center unless
otherwise indicated in this manual. Have defective switches replaced by
authorized service center. Don’t use tool if switch does not turn it on and off.
20. DO NOT OPERATE portable electric tools near flammable liquids or in
gaseous or explosive atmospheres. Motors in these tools normally spark, and
the sparks might ignite fumes.
21. CAUTION: When drilling or driving into walls, floors or wherever “live” electri­
cal wires may be encountered, DO NOT TOUCH ANY FRONT METAL PARTS
OF THE TOOL! Hold the tool only by the plastic handle to prevent shock if you
drill or drive into a “live” wire.
RULES FOR ROTARY HAMMERS
1. Wear safety goggles or other eye protection.
2. Wear ear protectors when hammering for extended periods.
3. Always use the side handle supplied with the tool. Keep a firm grip on the
hammer when it is operating.
4. Don’t overreach with the hammer. Maintain a firm, balanced working stance.
When necessary, use only properly positioned, safe platforms, ladders and
scaffolds, to do the job safely.
5. Hammer bits and tools get hot in operation. Wear gloves when touching
them.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE USE
Motor
Your B&D tool is powered by a B&D built motor. Be sure your power supply
agrees with nameplate marking.
Volts 50/60 Hz or “AC only” means your tool must be operated only with
alternating current and never with direct current. Volts DC- 60Hz or AC/DC
means your tool may be operated with either alternating or direct current.
Voltage decrease of more than 10% will cause loss of power and overheat­
ing. All B&D tools are factory tested; if this tool does not operate, check the
power supply.
