Electrical Safety: Use with original Bosch Professional 12V batteries and chargers only. Do not use damaged batteries or chargers.
Kickback Hazard: Maintain a firm grip and proper stance. Ensure the bit is securely tightened in the chuck before use. Do not apply excessive pressure.
Dust Hazard: Drilling generates dust. Use appropriate respiratory protection and ensure adequate ventilation.
Maintenance: Remove battery before changing bits or performing maintenance. Allow the tool to cool before storing.
Training requirement: No specialised training required. Basic instruction on correct usage and safety procedures is recommended.
2. FIRST AID MEASURES
Eye Injury (debris): Do not rub. Rinse immediately with plenty of clean water for at least 15 minutes, holding eyelids open. Seek medical attention.
Cut Injury: Apply direct pressure to stop bleeding. Clean wound with clean water. Cover with sterile dressing. Seek medical attention if bleeding is profuse or the wound is deep.
Skin Contact (dust): Wash skin with soap and water. If irritation develops, seek medical attention.
Inhalation of Dust: Move a person to fresh air. If symptoms persist (coughing, difficulty breathing), seek medical attention.
3. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
Flammability: The tool casing may burn if exposed to fire. Lithium-ion batteries can leak or rupture if exposed to high temperatures.
Extinguishing Media: Use water spray, foam, dry chemical powder, or carbon dioxide (CO₂) for fires involving tools.
