GENERAL SAFETY RULES - FOR ALL BATTERY

OPERATED TOOLS

WARNING! READ AND UNDERSTAND ALL INSTRUCTIONS.

Failure to follow all instructions listed below, may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious personal injury.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

Work Area

• Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered benches and dark areas invite

accidents.

• Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of

flammable liquids, gases, or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or

fumes.

• Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away while operating a power tool.

Distractions can cause you to lose control.

Electrical Safety

• Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord to carry the tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Replace damaged cords immediately.

Damaged cords may create a fire.

• A battery operated tool with integral batteries or a separate battery pack must be recharged only with the specified charger for the battery. Acharger that may be

suitable for one type of battery may create a risk of fire when used with another battery.

• Use battery operated tool only with specifically designated battery pack. Use of any other batteries may create a risk of fire.

Personal Safety

• 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.

• Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Contain long hair. Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothing, jewelry, or long hair

can be caught in moving parts. Air vents cover moving parts and should be avoided.

• Avoid accidental starting. Be sure switch is in the locked or off position before inserting battery pack. Carrying tools with your finger on the switch or inserting the battery

pack into a tool with the switch on invites accidents.

• Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before turning the tool on. Awrench or key that is left attached to a rotating part of the tool may result in personal injury.

• Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Proper footing and balance enables better control of the tool in unexpected situations.

• Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection must be used for appropriate conditions.

Tool Use and Care

• Use clamps or other practical way to secure and support the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the work by hand or against your body is unstable and may lead to loss

of control.

• Do not force tool. Use the correct tool for your application. The correct tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it is designed.

• Do not use tool if switch does not turn it on or off. Atool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.

• Disconnect battery pack from tool or place the switch in the locked or off position before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing the tool. Such

preventative safety measures reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally.

• Store idle tools out of reach of children and other untrained persons. Tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

• When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects like: paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or other small metal objects that can make a connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the battery terminals together may

cause sparks, burns, or a fire.

• Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained tools, with sharp cutting edge are less likely to bind and are easier to control.with sharp.

• Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, and any other condition that may affect the tool’s operation. If damaged, have the tool serviced before using. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained tools.

• Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for your model.

Accessories that may be suitable for one tool may create a risk of injury when used on another tool.

Service

• Tool service must be performed only by qualified repair personnel. Service or

maintenance performed by unqualified personnel could result in a risk of injury.

• When servicing a tool, use only identical replacement parts. Follow instructions in the

Maintenance section of this manual. Use of unauthorized parts or failure to follow

Maintenance Instructions may create a risk of electric shock or injury.

Specific Safety Rules

• Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation where the

cutting tool may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Contact with a "live" wire will

make exposed metal parts of the tool "live" and shock the operator.

• When working on a ladder or on scaffolding be sure to lay the tool down on its side

when not in use. Some tools with large battery packs will stand upright but may be easily

knocked over.

WARNING: Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities contains chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:

• lead from lead-based paints,

• crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, and

• arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber (CCA).

Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.

• Avoid prolonged contact with dust from power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities. Wear protective clothing and wash exposed areas with soap and water. Allowing dust to get into your mouth, eyes, or lay on the skin may

promote absorption of harmful chemicals.

CAUTION: Wear appropriate hearing protection during use. Under some conditions

and duration of use, noise from this product may contribute to hearing loss.

WARNING: Use of this tool can generate and/or disperse dust, which may cause

serious and permanent respiratory or other injury. Always use NIOSH/OSHA approved

respiratory protection appropriate for the dust exposure. Direct particles away from face and body.

Battery Cap Information

Battery storage and carrying caps are provided for use whenever the battery is out of the tool or charger. Remove cap before placing battery in charger or tool.

WARNING: Do not store or carry battery so that metal objects can contact exposed battery terminals. For example, do not place battery in aprons, pockets, tool boxes, product kit boxes, drawers, etc. with loose nails, screws, keys, etc. without battery cap. Transporting batteries can possibly cause fires if the battery terminals inadvertently come in contact with conductive materials such as keys, coins, hand tools and the like. The US Department of Transportation Hazardous Material Regulations (HMR) actually prohibit transporting batteries in commerce or on airplanes (i.e. packed in suitcases and carryon luggage) UNLESS they are properly protected from short circuits. So when transporting individual batteries, make sure that the battery terminals are protected and well insulated from materials that could contact them and cause a short circuit.

On Board Bit Storage

A bit storage slot is built-in to the area just above the battery.

Drilling

• Use sharp drill bits only.

• Support and secure work properly, as instructed in the Safety Instructions.

• Use appropriate and required safety equipment, as instructed in the Safety Instructions.

• Secure and maintain work area, as instructed in the Safety Instructions.

• Run the drill very slowly, using light pressure, until the hole is started enough to keep the

drill bit from slipping out of it.

• Apply pressure in a straight line with the bit. Use enough pressure to keep the bit biting but

not so much as to stall the motor or deflect the bit.

• Hold the drill firmly with one hand on the grip and the other hand on the bottom of the

battery pack to control its twisting action.

• DO NOT CLICK THE TRIGGER OF ASTALLED DRILL OFF AND ON IN AN ATTEMPT TO

START IT. DAMAGE TO THE DRILL CAN RESULT.

• Minimize stalling on breakthrough by reducing pressure and slowly drilling through the last

part of the hole.

• Keep the motor running while pulling the bit out of a drilled hole. This will help reduce

jamming.

• Make sure switch turns drill on and off.

WARNING: It is important to support the work properly and to hold the drill firmly to

prevent loss of control which could cause personal injury. If you have any questions on how to properly operate tool, call: 1-800-54-HOW-TO (544-6986).

Drilling in Wood

Holes in wood can be made with the same twist drill bits used for metal or with spade bits. These bits should be sharp and should be pulled out frequently when drilling to clear chips from the flutes.

Drilling in Metal

Use a cutting lubricant when drilling metals. The exceptions are cast iron and brass which should be drilled dry. The cutting lubricants that work best are sulfurized cutting oil or lard oil.

Drilling in Masonry

Use carbide tipped masonry bits. Refer to Drilling section. Keep even force on the drill but not so much that you crack the brittle material. Asmooth, even flow of dust indicates the proper drilling rate.

Maintenance

Use only mild soap and damp cloth to clean the tool. Never let any liquid get inside the tool; never immerse any part of the tool into a liquid.

An occasional application of a household oil to the Quick Connect

hex shaft will help

prevent rust. IMPORTANT: To assure product SAFETY and RELIABILITY, repairs, maintenance and

adjustment (other than those listed in this manual) should be performed by authorized service centers or other qualified service organizations, always using identical replacement parts.

The RBRC™ Seal

The RBRC™ (Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corporation) Seal on the nickel-cadmium battery (or battery pack) indicates that the costs to recycle the battery (or battery pack) at the end of its useful life have already been paid by Black & Decker. In some areas, it is illegal to place spent nickel-cadmium batteries in the trash or municipal solid waste stream and the RBRC program provides an environmentally conscious alternative.

RBRC in cooperation with Black & Decker and other battery users, has established programs in the United States and Canada to facilitate the collection of spent nickelcadmium batteries. Help protect our environment and conserve natural resources by returning the spent nickel-cadmium battery to an authorized Black & Decker service center or to your local retailer for recycling. You may also contact your local recycling center for information on where to drop off the spent battery, or call 1-800-8-BATTERY.

Accessories

Recommended accessories for use with your tool are available from your local dealer or authorized service center. If you need assistance regarding accessories, please call:

1-800-54-HOW-TO (544-6986).

WARNING: The use of any accessory not recommended for use with this tool could be

hazardous. The following accessories should be used only in the sizes specified below: BITS, METALDRILLING – Up to 3/8 in. (9.5mm); BITS, MASONRY DRILLING –

Up to 3/8 in. (9.5mm); WOOD DRILLING – Up to 1/2 in. (12.7mm).

Safety Warnings and Instructions: Charging the Drill

1. This manual contains important safety and operating instructions.

2. Before using battery charger, read all instructions and cautionary markings on (1) battery charger, (2) battery, and (3) product using battery.

3. CAUTION: To reduce the risk of injury, charge only Black & Decker Battery Packs. Other types of batteries may burst causing personal injury and damage.

4. Do not expose charger to rain or snow.

5. Use of an attachment not recommended or sold by Black & Decker may result in a risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons.

6. To reduce risk of damage to electric plug and cord, pull by plug rather than cord when disconnecting charger.

7. Make sure cord is located so that it will not be stepped on, tripped over, or otherwise subjected to damage or stress.

8. An extension cord should not be used unless absolutely necessary. Use of improper extension cord could result in a risk of fire, electric shock or electrocution.

a. Two-wire cords can be used with 2-wire or 3-wire extension cords. Only round

jacketed extension cords should be used, and we recommend that they be listed by Underwriters Laboratories (U.L.). If the extension is to be used outside, the cord must be suitable for outdoor use. Any cord marked for outdoor use can also be used for indoor work. The letters "W" or "WA" on the cord jacket indicate that the cord is suitable for outdoor use.

b. An extension cord must have adequate wire size (AWG or American Wire Gauge) for

safety, and to prevent loss of power and overheating. The smaller the gauge number of the wire, the greater the capacity of the cable; that is, 16 gauge has more capacity than 18 gauge. When using more than one extension to make up the total length, be sure each extension contains at least the minimum wire size.

9. Use only the supplied charger when charging your drill. The use of any other charger could damage the drill or create a hazardous condition.

10. Use only one charger when charging.

11. Do not attempt to open the charger or the drill. There are no customer serviceable parts inside. Return to any authorized Black & Decker service center.

12. DO NOT incinerate the drill or battery packs even if they are severely damaged or completely worn out. The batteries can explode in a fire.

13. A small leakage of liquid from the battery cells may occur under extreme usage, charging or temperature conditions. This does not indicate a failure. However, if the outer seal is broken and this leakage gets on your skin:

a. Wash quickly with soap and water. b. Neutralize with a mild acid such as lemon juice or vinegar. c. If the battery liquid gets in your eyes, flush them with clean water for a minimum of 10

minutes and seek immediate medical attention. MEDICAL NOTE: The liquid is a 25-35% solution of potassium hydroxide.

Important Charging Notes

1. Longest life and best performance can be obtained if the battery pack is charged when

the air temperature is between 65°F and 75°F (18°- 24°C). DO NOT charge the battery pack in an air temperature below +40°F(+4.5°C), or above +105°F (+40.5°C). This is important and will prevent serious damage to the battery pack.

2. The charger and battery pack may become warm to touch while charging. This is a

normal condition, and does not indicate a problem.

3. If the battery pack does not charge properly — (1) Check power at receptacle by

plugging in a lamp or other appliance. (2) Check to see if receptacle is connected to a light switch which turns power off when you turn out the lights. (3) Move charger and battery pack to a location where the surrounding air temperature is approximately 65°F - 75°F (18°- 24°C). (4) If charging problems persist, take or send the tool, battery pack and charger to your local service center.

4. The battery pack should be recharged when it does not produce sufficient power on

jobs which were easily done previously. DO NOT CONTINUE use under these conditions. Follow the charging procedures. You may also charge a partially used pack whenever you desire with no adverse affect on the battery pack.

5. Black & Decker battery packs that are labeled “NiMH” should only be used with

chargers labeled “NiMH“ or “NiCd/NiMH.”

6. Under certain conditions, with the charger plugged into the power supply, the exposed

charging contacts inside the charger can be shorted by foreign material. Foreign materials of a conductive nature such as, but not limited to, steel wool, aluminum foil, or any buildup of metallic particles should be kept away from charger cavities. Always unplug the charger from the power supply when there is no battery pack in the cavity. Unplug charger before attempting to clean.

7. Do not immerse charger in water or any other liquid.

8. This power unit is intended to be correctly orientated in a vertical or floor mounted

position.

Safety Warnings and Instructions: Drills

1. Hold drill firmly with one hand on the grip and the other hand on the bottom of the battery pack.

2. When attaching accessories in the drill chuck, hand tighten the keyless chuck firmly.

WARNING: Drill may stall (if overloaded or improperly used) causing a twist. Always expect the stall. Grip the drill firmly to control the twisting action and prevent loss of control which could cause personal injury. If a stall does occur, release the trigger immediately and determine the reason for the stall before re-starting.
