1. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Operational Safety: Always wear safety goggles when drilling. Secure the workpiece firmly. Ensure the bit is correctly inserted into the SDS-plus tool holder. Do not operate the rotary hammer without the auxiliary handle fitted.
Dust Hazard: Drilling in concrete and masonry generates silica dust. Use appropriate respiratory protection (at least P2 or N95 mask) and dust extraction where possible.
Tool Safety: Ensure the bit is securely locked in the SDS-plus tool holder before use. Check the bit for damage before each use. Do not use damaged or worn bits.
Maintenance: Clean the bit after use. Remove debris from flutes. Store in a dry place to prevent corrosion.
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 bit itself is not flammable. Packaging may burn if exposed to fire.
Extinguishing Media: Use water spray, foam, dry chemical powder, or carbon dioxide (CO₂) for fires involving packaging.
Fire Response: In event of fire, evacuate the area and call emergency services. Use appropriate extinguishers
