KEY INFORMATION YOU SHOULD KNOW:
• Reversing drills must be switched into forward or reverse in order to operate. They will
not run with the switch control lever in the center position.
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.
SPECIFICSAFETYRULES
• 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.
Z_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.

GENERALSAFETYRULES
Z_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.
ELECTRICALSAFETY
• Double insulated tools are equipped with a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other.) This plug will
fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still
does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install a polarized outlet. Do not change the plug in any way.
Double insulation [] eliminates the need for the three wire grounded power cord and grounded power
supply system.
• Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an
increased risk of electric shock if your body is grounded.
• Don't expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of
electric shock.
• Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord to carry the tools or pull the plug from an outlet. Keep cord
away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Replace damaged cords immediately. Damaged cords
increase the risk of electric shock.
• When operating a power tool outside, use an outdoor extension cord marked "W-A" or "W." These cords
are rated for outdoor use and reduce the risk of electric shock.
PERSONALSAFETY
• 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.
• Avoid accidental starting. Be sure switch is off before plugging in. Carrying tools with your finger on the
switch or plugging in tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
• Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before turning the tool on. A wrench 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 USEAND 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. Any tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is
dangerous and must be repaired.
Disconnect the plug from the power source 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.
Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained tools, with sharp cutting
edges 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 tools 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 become hazardous when used on another tool.
SAFETY WARNINGS AND INSTRUCTIONS: DRILLS
• When drilling or driving into walls, floors or wherever live electrical wires may be encountered, DO NOT
TOUCH ANY METAL PARTS OF THE TOOL! Hold the tool only by the plastic handle to prevent shock.
• Do not lock the tool ON when drilling by hand. Refer to Operating Instructions-Switch.
• Hold drill firmly to control the twisting action of the drill. If your drill is equipped with a side handle, always
use the side handle.
Z_WARNING: Use of this tool can generate dust containing chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects or
other reproductive harm. Use appropriate respiratory protection.
z_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.
• Always unplug the drill when attaching or removing accessories. When attaching accessories in the drill
chuck, it is important to securely tighten the chuck using all three holes to prevent slippage. When using a
keyless chuck, hand tighten firmly.
MOTOR
Your Black & Decker tool is powered by a Black & Decker-built motor. Be sure your power supply agrees with
nameplate marking. 120 Volts AC only means your drill will operate on standard 60 Hz household power. Do
not operate AC tools on DC. A rating of 120 volts AC/DC means that your tool will operate on standard 60 Hz
AC or DC power. This information is printed on the nameplate. Lower voltage will cause loss of power and can
result in over-heating. All Black & Decker tools are factory-tested; if this tool does not operate, check the power
supply.
USEOF EXTENSION CORDS
Make sure the extension cord is in good condition before using. Always use the proper size extension cords
with the tool - that is, proper wire size for various lengths of cord and heavy enough to carry the current the
tool will draw. Use of an undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and
overheating. For proper size cords see chart below.
Volts Total Length of Cord in Feet
120V 0-25 26-50 51-100 101-150

the chuck and turning the tool on. Damage to the chuck and personal injury may occur
when changing accessories.
DRILLING
• Always unplug the drill when attaching or removing accessories, when attaching accessories in the drill
chuck, it is important to securely tighten the chuck using all three holes to prevent slippage. When using a
keyless chuck, hand tighten firmly..
• 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 A STALLED 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.
• 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.
• Plug in drill. Make sure switch turns drill on and off.
KEYLESSCHUCK REMOVAL(DR210, DR220, DR300, DR402)
UNPLUG DRILL. Tighten the chuck around the shorter end of a hex key (not supplied) of 1/4" (6.4mm) or
greater size. Using a soft hammer, strike key sharply in a counterclockwise direction (when viewed from the front
of the tool). This will loosen the chuck so that it can be unscrewed by hand.
KEYEDCHUCK REMOVAL (DR200, DR400)
UNPLUG DRILL. NOTE: Before attempting to remove chuck, shift the drill into the drilling mode (not hammer, if so
equipped ).
Place chuck key in any one of the three holes in the chuck. Strike the key sharply in a counterclockwise direction

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; bacon grease will also serve the
purpose.
DRILLING IN MASONRY (Shift drill into hammer mode as shown in Fig. 4)
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. A smooth, even flow of dust indicates the proper drilling rate.

z_ AVERTISSEMENT : Lire et comprendre routes les directives. Le non-respect de routes les directives
suivantes presente des risques de secousses electriques, d'incendie ou de blessures graves.
CONSERVER CES MESURES.
ZONE DETRAVAIL
• S'assurer que la zone de travail est propre et bien eclairee. Des etablis encombres et des endroits sombres
presentent des risques d'accidents.
• Ne pas utiliser des out|Is electriques en presence de vapeurs explosives (comme celles degagees par des
liquides, des gaz ou des poussieres inflammables). Les etincelles generees par le moteur des out|Is
electriques peuvent enflammer les poussieres ou les vapeurs.
• I_loigner les curieux, les enfants et les visiteurs de la zone de travail Iorsqu'on utilise un outil electrique.
Une distraction peut entrainer la perte de maitrise de I'outil.
MESURESDESI_CURITI_RELATIVESis,L'I_LECTRICITI_
• Les outils a double isolation comportent une fiche polarisee (une lame plus large que I'autre). La fiche
n'entre que d'une fa_;on dans une prise polarisee. Lorsque la fiche n'entre pas a fond dans la prise,
essayer de nouveau apres avoir inverse les broches de la fiche. Si la fiche n'entre toujours pas dans la
prise, communiquer avec un electricien certifie afin de faire installer une prise polarisee. Ne modifier en
aucune fad:on la fiche. La double isolation [] elimine le besoin d'un cordon trifilaire mis a la terre et d'un
systeme d'alimentation mis a la terre.
• I_viter de toucher ,_des surfaces mises ,_ la terre comme des tuyaux, des radiateurs, des cuisinieres et des
refrigerateurs. Les risques de secousses electriques sont plus eleves si le corps de I'utilisateur est mis a la terre.
• Proteger les out|Is electriques de la pluie ou des conditions mouillees. Une infiltration d'eau dans I'outil
augmente les risques de secousses electriques.
• Manipuler le cordon avec soin. Ne jamais se servir du cordon afin de transporter I'outil ni tirer sur le
cordon pour debrancher I'outil. I_loigner le cordon des sources de chaleur, des flaques d'huile, des arOtes
tranchantes et des pieces mobiles. Remplacer immediatement les cordons endommages. Les cordons
endommages augmentent les risques de secousses electriques.
• Lorsqu'on utilise un outil electrique ,_ I'exterieur, se servir d'un cordon de rallonge prevu pour I'exterieur,
portant la mention "W-A" ou "W". Ces cordons sont con(;:us pour servir a I'exterieur et minim|sent les
