[. . . ] Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away while operating a power tool. Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use tool while tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury. [. . . ] Contact with a "live" wire will make exposed metal parts of the tool "live" and shock the operator. Do not touch the bit or the workpiece immediately after operation; they may be extremely hot and could burn your skin. WARNING: MISUSE or failure to follow the safety rules stated in this instruction manual may cause serious personal injury. Number of blow CAUTION: Before plugging in the tool, always check to see that the switch trigger actuates properly and returns to the "OFF" position when released. ⷠSwitch can be locked in "ON" position for ease of operator comfort during extended use. 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. A speed control screw is provided so that maximum tool speed can be limited (variable). Turn the speed control screw clockwise for higher speed, and counterclockwise for lower speed. CAUTION: Always be sure that the tool is switched off and unplugged before adjusting or checking function on the tool. CAUTION: Do not look in the light or see the source of light directly. Be careful not to scratch the lens of lamp, or it may lower the illumination. 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. CAUTION: Always slide the action mode change lever all the way to your desired mode position. If you operate the tool with the lever positioned halfway between the mode symbols, the tool may be damaged. CAUTION: Always be sure that the tool is switched off and unplugged before carrying out any work on the tool. To change the speed, turn the speed change knob so that the arrow on the tool body points toward the "I" position on the knob for low speed or "II" position for high speed. If it is hard to turn the knob, first turn the chuck slightly in either direction and then turn the knob again. CAUTION: Use the speed change knob only after the tool comes to a complete stop. If you operate the tool with the speed change knob positioned halfway between the "I" and "II" position, the tool may be damaged. Install the side grip so that the teeth on the grip fit in between the protrusions on the tool barrel.
