Black & Decker BDC752 Instruction Manual

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 clothes, jewelry , or long hair

can be caught in moving parts.

• 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 a 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 enable 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.

• 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 may 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 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 also

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.

The label on your tool may include the following symbols.

WARNING: Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other con-

struction 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.

Charging the Drill

Before attempting to charge your drill, thoroughly read ALL of the safety instructions. To
charge your drill, follow the steps below.

1. Remove any accessories from the chuck.

2. Plug the output cord of the charger into the socket in the drill handle.

3. Plug the charger into any standard electrical outlet as shown in Figure 1.

4. Allow the tool to remain in this condition for 16 hours.

Important Charging Notes

1. After normal usage, your drill should be fully charged in 16 hours or less. Your drill was
sent from the factory in an uncharged condition. Before attempting to use it, it must be
charged for at least 16 hours.

2. DO NOT charge the batteries in an air temperature below +40°F or above +105°F. This
is important and will prevent serious damage to the batteries.

3. While charging, the charger may hum and become warm to touch. This is a normal con­dition and does not indicate a problem.

4. If the batteries do not charge properly –
(1) Check current at receptacle by plugging in a lamp or other appliance.
(2) Check to see if the receptacle is connected to a light switch which turns power off

when you turn out the lights.
(3) Move charger and drill to a surrounding air temperature of +40°F to +105°F.
(4) If the receptacle and temperature are OK, and you do not get proper charging, take

or send the tool and charger to your local Black & Decker service center. See "Tools
Electric"’ in yellow pages.

5. The drill should be recharged when it fails to produce sufficient power on the jobs which
previously were done easily. DO NOT CONTINUE to use the drill with its battery in a
depleted condition.

6. To prolong battery life, avoid leaving the tool on charge for more than 2 days. Although
overcharging is not a safety concern, it can significantly reduce overall battery life.

7. Since the unit is designed for cordless applications, use of the unit while plugged in is of
no benefit. Batteries will still become depleted.

IMPORTANTES MESURES DE SÉCURITÉ - POUR TOUS LES OUTILS
ALIMENTÉS PAR PILES

AVERTISSEMENT! Lire et comprendre toutes les directives. Le non-respect de toutes

les directives suivantes présente des risques de secousses électriques, d’incendie ou de
blessures graves.

CONSERVER CES MESURES.

ZONE DE TRAVAIL

• S’assurer que la zone de travail est propre et bien éclairée. Des établis encombrés et
des endroits sombres présentent des risques d’accidents.

• Ne pas utiliser des outils électriques en présence de vapeurs explosives (comme
celles dégagées par des liquides, des gaz ou des poussières inflammables). Les

étincelles générées par le moteur des outils électriques peuvent enflammer les poussières
ou les vapeurs.

• Éloigner les curieux, les enfants et les visiteurs de la zone de travail lorsqu’on utilise
un outil électrique. Une distraction peut entraîner la perte de maîtrise de l’outil.

MESURES DE SÉCURITÉ RELATIVES À L’ÉLECTRICITÉ

• Manipuler le cordon avec soin. Ne jamais se servir du cordon afin de transporter
l’outil ni tirer sur le cordon pour débrancher l’outil. Éloigner le cordon des sources de
chaleur, des flaques d’huile, des arêtes tranchantes et des pièces mobiles.
Remplacer immédiatement les cordons endommagés. Les cordons endommagés

augmentent les risques de secousses électriques.

• Il faut charger un outil à piles intégrées ou un ensemble de piles seulement dans le
chargeur conçu à cet effet. Un chargeur convenant pour un type de piles peut présenter

un risque d’incendie lorsqu’on s’en sert avec un autre type de piles.

• Utiliser un outil alimenté par piles seulement avec la pile appropriée. L’utilisation de
toute autre pile présente des risques d’incendie.

SÉCURITÉ PERSONNELLE

• Demeurer vigilant, prendre soin et faire preuve de jugement lorsqu’on utilise un outil
électrique. Ne pas s’en servir lorsqu’on est fatigué ou affaibli par des drogues, de
l’alcool ou des médicaments. De graves blessures peuvent résulter d’un moment

d’inattention lors de l’utilisation d’un outil électrique.

• Porter des vêtements appropriés. Éviter de porter des vêtements amples ou des

bijoux. Recouvrir la chevelure si elle est longue. Éloigner les cheveux, les vêtements
et les gants des pièces en mouvement qui peuvent les happer.

• Éviter les démarrages accidentels. S’assurer que l’interrupteur est en position hors
tension avant d’insérer la pile. Afin d’éviter les risques de blessures, ne pas transporter

l’outil avec le doigt sur l’interrupteur ni insérer la pile dans un outil dont l’interrupteur est en
position sous tension.

• Enlever les clés de réglage avant de mettre l’outil sous tension. Une clé qui est laissée
sur une pièce rotative de l’outil présente des risques de blessures.

• Ne pas dépasser sa portée. Garder son équilibre en tout temps. On s’assure d’une
meilleure maîtrise de l’outil dans des situations imprévues grâce à une position stable et un
bon équilibre.

• Porter de l’équipement de sécurité. Toujours porter des lunettes de sécurité. Dans
certaines conditions, il faut porter des masques respiratoires, des chaussures
antidérapantes, un casque de sécurité ou des protège-tympans.

UTILISATION ET ENTRETIEN DE L’OUTIL

• Utiliser des pinces de serrage ou de tout autre moyen pratique afin de fixer et de
soutenir la pièce à ouvrer sur une plate-forme stable. La pièce est instable lorsqu’elle

est retenue par la main ou le corps de l’utilisateur. Cela présente des risques de perte de
maîtrise de l’outil.

• Ne pas forcer l’outil. Utiliser l’outil approprié à la tâche. L’outil approprié fonctionne
mieux et sûrement lorsqu’on s’en sert à son rendement nominal.

• Ne pas se servir de l’outil lorsque l’interrupteur est défectueux. Le cas échéant, l’outil
est dangereux et il faut le réparer.

• Enlever la pile de l’outil ou placer celui-ci en position hors tension avant de le régler,
d’en remplacer les accessoires ou de le ranger. On minimise de la sorte le risque de
démarrage accidentel de l’outil.

• Ranger l’outil hors de portée des enfants et de toute autre personne qui n’en connaît
pas le fonctionnement. L’outil est dangereux entre les mains de ces personnes.

• Lorsque la pile ne sert pas, l’éloigner de tout objet métallique (comme des trombones,

des pièces de monnaie, des clés, des clous, des vis ou tout autre petit objets
métalliques qui peut créer une connexion d’une borne à l’autre). Lorsque les bornes

sont court-circuitées, cela peut générer des étincelles, des brûlures ou un incendie.

• Prendre soin des outils. S’assurer que les outils de coupe sont tranchants et propres.
Des outils bien entretenus à arêtes tranchantes ont moins tendance à se coincer et ils se
maîtrisent mieux.

• Vérifier l’alignement et les attaches des pièces mobiles, le degré d’usure des pièces

ainsi que tout autre facteur susceptible de nuire au bon fonctionnement de l’outil.
Faire réparer un outil endommagé avant de s’en servir. Des outils mal entretenus sont la

cause de nombreux accidents.

• Utiliser seulement les accessoires recommandés par le fabricant. Des accessoires qui
conviennent à un outil peuvent présenter des risques avec un autre outil.

ENTRETIEN

• Confier l’entretien de l’outil seulement à du personnel qualifié. Le non-respect de la
présente directive présente des risques de blessures.

• Lors de l’entretien de l’outil, utiliser seulement des pièces de rechange identiques.
Respecter les consignes relatives à l’entretien du présent guide d’utilisation. Il y a
risque de secousses électriques ou de blessures lorsqu’on utilise des pièces non autorisées
ou lorsqu’on ne respecte pas les consignes relatives à l’entretien

MESURES DE SÉCURITÉ SPÉCIFIQUES

• Saisir l’outil par ses surfaces de prises isolées lorsque l’outil peut entrer en contact

8. Unplug your tool’s charger from the power supply before disconnecting the charger from
the tool. Under certain conditions, with the charger plugged in to the power supply, the
exposed charging plug can be shorted by foreign material and may create a fire hazard.
Foreign materials of a conductive nature, such as but not limited to, steel wool, aluminum
foil, or any build up of metallic particles should be kept away from the charging plug.
Unplug charger before attempting to clean.

Operating Instructions

TRIGGER SWITCH & REVERSING BUTTON

The drill is turned ON and OFF by pulling and releasing the trigger switch shown in Figure 2.
Your drill is equipped for two speed drilling. To operate at low speed, squeeze the trigger
switch halfway. This will produce a low speed to be used for driving screws and starting holes
without a centerpunch. Squeezing the trigger switch all the way will produce a high speed for
normal drilling operation. NOTE: There is a slight pause between speeds. Keep squeezing
the trigger, and the drill will start again.
The reversing button, also shown in Figure 2, switches the drill’s direction from forward to
reverse. If it is in the middle, the drill will not function.

KEYLESS CHUCK

To insert a drill bit or other accessory:

1. Grasp the rear half of the chuck with one hand and use your other hand to rotate the
front half in the counterclockwise direction, (Fig. 3) as viewed from the chuck end.

2. Insert the bit or other accessory fully into the chuck, and tighten securely by holding the
rear half of the chuck and rotating the front portion in the clockwise direction as viewed
from the chuck end.

WARNING: Do not attempt to tighten drill bits (or any other accessory) by gripping the

front part of the chuck and turning the tool on. Damage to the chuck and personal injury may
occur when changing accessories.

INTEGRAL LIGHT

Your drill is equipped with a built-in light. To turn the light on, slide the switch downward as
shown in Figure 4. The light will remain on until the switch is returned to its original position.

BATTERYLEVEL INDICATOR

Figure 5 illustrates the location of the charge indicator. To display the charge status, press the
black button at the bottom of the indicator.
When fully charged batteries are installed, all three lights will be illuminated. As the charge is
depleted, there will be less lights illuminated.

SCREW DRIVING

For driving fasteners, the reversing button should be pushed to the left. Use reverse (button
pushed to the right) for removing fasteners. When moving from forward to reverse, or vice
versa, always release the trigger switch first.

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 to control its twisting action.

• DO NOT CLICK THE TRIGGER OF ASTALLED DRILLOFF AND ON IN AN ATTEMPTTO

STARTIT. DAMAGE TO THE DRILLCAN 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.

• Use a cutting lubricant when drilling metals. The exceptions are cast iron and brass which

should be drilled dry. The lubricants that work best are sulphurized cutting oil or lard oil.
Bacon grease will also serve.

• When using twist drill bits to drill holes in wood, it will be necessary to pull the bits out

frequently to clear chips from the flutes.

• 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
