Kickback Hazard: Maintain a firm grip and proper stance. Be prepared for sudden reactions if the bit jams. KickBack Control provides additional user protection .
Vibration Hazard: Use the vibration control features. Take regular breaks to prevent hand-arm vibration syndrome.
Maintenance: Remove battery before changing bits or performing maintenance. Allow the tool to cool before storing.
Training requirement: Operators should be familiar with correct usage, bit selection, and safety procedures. Supervisors should ensure all safety protocols are followed.
