SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
1) WORK AREA SAFETY
• Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
• Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flare=
mable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
• Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can
cause you to lose control.
2) ELECTRICAL SAFETY
a) Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do
not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs
and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock:
b) Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators,
ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is
earthed or grounded.
c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool
will increase the risk of electric shock.
d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging
the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts.
Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
e) When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for out-
door use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock:
f) If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a ground fault cir=
cult interrupter (GFCl) protected supply. Use of a GFCI reduces the risk of electric shock:
3) PERSONAL SAFETY
a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating
a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence
of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools
may result in serious personal injury.
b) Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective
equipment such as dust mask, nonskid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection
used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off position before
connecting to power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool.
Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or energizing power tools that have
the switch on invites accidents.
d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench
or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.
e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables
better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Keep your hair, cloth-
ing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be
caught in moving parts.
g) If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection
facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of dust collection can
reduce dust-related hazards.
4) POWER TOOL USE AND CARE
a) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. The
correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
b) Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Anypower
tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
c) Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery pack from the
power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing
power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power
tool accidentally.
d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons
unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool.
Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
e) Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts,
breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the power tool's opera=
tion. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many accidents are
caused by poorly maintained power tools.
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp
cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control
g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits, etc. in accordance with these instruc=
tions, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of
the power tool for operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.
5) BATTERY TOOL USE AND CARE
a) Recharge only with the charger specified by the manufacturer. A charger that is
suitable for one type of battery pack may create a risk of fire when used with another
battery pack:
b) Use power tools only with specifically designated battery packs. Use of any
other battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire.
c) 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 bums or a fire.
d) Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery, avoid contact.
If contact accidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, addition-
ally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.
6) SERVICE
a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical
replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES
• Wear ear protectors with impact drills. Exposure to noise can cause hearing loss.
• Use auxiliary handles supplied with the tool. Loss of control can cause personal injury.
• Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when performing an operation
where the cutting accessory may contact hidden wiring. Cutting accessory contacting
a "live" wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool "live" and could give the
operator an electric shock.
• 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.
• Use clamps or another practical way to secure and support the work piece to a
stable platform. Holding the work by hand or against your body leaves it unstable and
may lead to loss of control.
• Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves away from air vents. Air vents often cover moving
parts in which these items can be caught.
• Hold tool firmly with two hands. Use auxiliary handle if provided. Ifauxiliary handle not
provided, grip toot at bottom of handle. Loss of control can cause personal injury.
Z_WARNING: Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and
other construction activities contains chemicals known to the State of
California to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some exam=
pies of these chemicals are:
• Avoid prolonged contact with dust from power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling,
Z_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.
Symbols
The label on your tool may include the following symbols.
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.
Z_WARNING: Do not store or carry battery so that metal objects can contact exposed
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 welt insulated
from materials that could contact them and cause a short circuit.
• lead from lead-based paints,
• crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, and
• arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber.
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.
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.

z_Safety Warnings and instructions: Charging the Battery Pack
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 pack, and (3) product using battery pack.
3. z_ 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 jack-
eted 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 pack 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.
NAMEPLATE RATING AMPS -0 - 10.0
c. If the battery pack 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.
CHARGING THE BATTERY PACK
Your drill may use either a jack plug charger or a cup charger, both of which are described
below. Please follow the directions for the type of charger that you have. Chargers are
designed to use standard 120 volt AC, 60 Hz power. Do not use DC or any other voltage.
THE BATTERIES IN YOUR BATTERY PACK ARE NOT FULLY CHARGED AT THE
FACTORY. BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO CHARGE THEM, THOROUGHLY READ ALL OF
THE SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR JACK PLUG CHARGERS:
1. Place the battery pack into the toot until it "clicks" into place.
2. Insert the charger plug into the connector as shown in figure 1.
3. Plug the charger into any standard 120 Volt 60 Hz electrical outlet and let the battery
pack charge initially for 9 hours. After the initial charge, under normal usage, your
battery pack should be fully charged in 3 to 6 hours.
4. Disconnect the charger from the outlet, then disconnect the charger from the toot.
Z_ WARNING: Do not use the tool while it is connected to the charger.
NOTE: To remove the battery pack from the drill, press down on the release button on
the back of the battery pack (figure 2) and slide out.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR CUP CHARGERS:
1. Plug the charger into any standard 120 Volt 60 Hz electrical outlet.
2. Slide the charger onto the battery pack as shown in figure 3 and let the battery pack
charge initially for 9 hours. After the initial charge, under normal usage, your battery
pack should be fully charged in 3 to 6 hours.
3. Unplug charger, and remove the battery pack. Place the battery pack into the tool until
it "clicks" into place.
NOTE: To remove the battery pack from the drill, press down on the release button on
the back of the battery pack (figure 2) and slide out.
IMPORTANT CHARGING NOTES
1. After normal usage, your battery pack should be fully charged in 3 to 6 hours. If the
battery pack is run-down completely, it may take up to 6 hours to become fully charged.
Your battery pack was sent from the factory in an uncharged condition. Before attempt-
ing to use it, it must be charged for at least 9 hours.
2. 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.
Longest life and best performance can be obtained if battery pack is charged when air
temperature is about 75°F (24°C).
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 battery pack does not charge properly--(1) Check current at receptacle by plug-
ging 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 bat-
tery pack to a surrounding air temperature of 40°F (4,5°C) to 105° F (40,5°C). (4) If the
receptacle and temperature are OK, and you do not get proper charging, take or send
the battery pack and charger to your local Black & Decker service center. See Tools
Electric in yellow pages.
5. The battery pack should be recharged when it fails to produce sufficient power on jobs
which were easily done previously. DO NOT CONTINUE using product with its battery
pack in a depleted condition.
6. To prolong battery pack life, avoid leaving the battery pack on charge for extended
periods of time (over 30 days without use). Although overcharging is not a safety
concern, it can significantly reduce overall battery pack life.
7. When the battery pack is inserted into the charger, the red "Charging Indicator" light will
come on indicating that there is contact between the battery pack and charger. The light
will stay on as long as the battery pack is in the charger and the charger is plugged into a
working outlet. It WILL NOT flash, go out or change to a different color when the charging
cycle is complete.
8. The battery pack wilt reach optimum performance after being cycled 5 times during
normal usage. There is no need to run the batteries down completely before recharging.
Normal usage is the best method of discharging and recharging the batteries.
OPERATING iNSTRUCTiONS
INSTALLING AND REMOVING THE BATTERY PACK
NOTE: Make sure your battery pack is fully charged.
To install the battery pack into the tool handle, align the base of the tool with the rails inside
the tool's handle and slide the battery pack firmly into the handle until you hear the lock snap
into place.
To remove the battery pack from the toot, press the battery pack release button (G) and
firmly pull the battery pack out of the tool handle (figure 2).
TRIGGER SWITCH & REVERSING BUTTON - FIGURE 4
The drill is turned ON and OFF by pulling and releasing the trigger switch (A) shown in
figure 4. The farther the trigger is depressed, the higher the speed of the drill. A forward/
reverse control button (B) determines the direction of the tool and also serves as a lock
off button. To select forward rotation, release the trigger switch and depress the forward/
reverse control button to the left. To select reverse, depress the forward/reverse control
button to the right. The center position of the control button locks the toot in the off position.
When changing the position of the control button, be sure the trigger is released.
TORQUE CONTROL - FIGURE 5
To set the tool's torque, rotate the adjustable torque collar as required. There are 24 clutch
settings in all. These are indicated by numbers depicted on the torque collar. For light
duty work when using small screws, set the collar to the smallest number. Each click in a
counterclockwise direction means an increase in the torque produced. Ifthe clutch slips
on the lightest setting, turn the clutch collar to a higher number. The highest position is the
drill mode and is indicated by a drill bit icon. In this position the clutch will not operate. This
permits heavy duty drilling.
KEYLESS CHUCK - FIGURE 6
To insert a drill bit or other accessory:
1. Grasp the chuck collar with one hand and use your other hand to rotate the chuck in the
counterclockwise direction, as viewed from the chuck end.
2. Insert the bit or other accessory fully into the chuck, and tighten securely by holding the
rear portion of the chuck and rotating the front portion of the chuck in the clockwise
direction as viewed from the chuck end.
Z_WARNING: Do not attempt to tighten drill bits (or any other accessory) by gripping the
front part of the chuck and turning the toot on. Damage to the chuck and personal injury
may occur when changing accessories.
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 with two hands 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.
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.

_lectrique est utilis_. Ne pas utiliser d'outil _lectrique en cas de fatigue ou sous
I'influence de drogues, d'alcool ou de m_dicaments. Un simple moment d'inattention
en utilisant un outil electrique peut entra_ner des blessures corporelles graves.
b) Utiliser des 6quipements de protection individuelle. Toujours porter une
protection oculaire. L'utilisation d'd_quipements de protection comme un masque anti-
poussi_re, des chaussures antid_rapantes, un casque de s_curit_ ou des protecteurs
auditifs /orsque /a situation le requiert reduira /es risques de blessures corporel/es.
c) Emp_cher les d_marrages intempestifs. S'assurer que I'interrupteur se trouve
la position d'arr_t avant de relier I'outil a une source d'alimentation et/ou
d'ins_rer un bloc=piles, de ramasser ou de transporter I'outil. Transporter un outil
dectrique alors que le do_gt repose sur I'interrupteur ou brancher un outil electrique
dont /'interrupteur est 9/a position de marche risque de provoquer un accident.
d) Retirer toute cl_ de r_glage ou cl_ standard avant de d_marrer I'outil. Une cl_
standard ou une cle de rd_jlage attachde 9 une pattie pivotante peut causer des bles-
sures.
e) Ne pas trop tendre les bras. Conserver son _quilibre en tout temps. Cela permet
de mieux ma_triser I'outil dectrique dans /es situations impr_vues.
f) S'habiller de mani_re appropri6e. Ne pas porter de v_tements amples ni de
bijoux. Garcler les cheveux, les v_tements et les gants a 1'6cart des pi_ces

coinc_s dans les pieces mobiles.
g) Si des composants sont fournis pour le raccordement de dispositifs de
d_poussi_rage et de ramassage, s'assurer que ceux-ci sont bien raccord6s et
utilis_s. L'utilisation d'un dispositif de depoussierage peut reduire les dangers
engendr_s par les poussieres.
4) Utilisation et entretien d'un outil _lectrique
a) Ne pas forcer un outil 61ectrique. Utiliser I'outil _lectrique appropri_
I'application. L'outil dectrique approprie effectuera un meilleur travail, de fa_on plus
sore et 9 la vitesse pour laque/le il a _t_ congu.
b) Ne pas utiliser un outil _lectrique dont I'interrupteur est d_fectueux. Tout outil
dectrique dont /'interrupteur est defectueux est dangereux et dolt _tre repar_.
c) D_brancher la fiche du secteur ou le bloc-piles de I'outil _lectrique avant de faire
tout r_glage ou changement d'accessoire, ou avant de ranger I'outil
_lectrique. Ces mesures preventives reduisent les risques de dd_marrage accidentel
de I'outi/ electrique.
d) Ranger les outils _lectriques hors de la pottle des enfants, et ne permettre
aucune personne n'_tant pas famili_re avec un outil _lectrique (ou son manuel
d'instruction) d'utiliser ce dernier. Les outils electriques deviennent dangereux entre
les mains d' utilisateurs inexperimentes.
e) Entretenir les outils 61ectriques. V_rifier les pi_ces mobiles pour s'assurer
qu'elles sont bien align_es et tournent librement, qu'elles sont en bon _tat et ne
sont affect_es par aucun trouble susceptible de nuire au bon
fonctionnement de I'outil _lectrique. En cas de dommage, faire r_parer I'outil
_lectrique avant toute nouvelle utilisation. Beaucoup d'accidents sont causes par
des outils electriques mal entretenus.
f) S'assurer que les outils de coupe sont aiguis_s et propres. Les outi/s de coupe bien

d'un chargeur qui convient a un type de bloc-piles risque de provoquer un incendie s'il
est utilise avec un autre type de bloc-piles.
b) Utiliser les outils 61ectriques uniquement avec les blocs=piles congus a cet effet.
L'utilisation de tout autre bloc-piles risque de causer des blessures ou un incendie.
c) Lorsque le bloc-piles n'est pas utilis_, le tenir _loign6 des objets m_talliques,
notamment des trombones, de la monnaie, des cl_s, des clous, des vis, etc., qui
peuvent _tablir une connexion entre les deux bornes. Le court-circuit des bomes du
bloc-piles risque de provoquer des etincel/es, des brOlures ou un incendie.
d) En cas d'utilisation abusive, le liquide peut gicler hors du bloc-piles, _viter tout
contact. Si un contact accidentel se procluit, laver a grande eau. Si le liquide entre
en contact avec les yeux, obtenir des soins m_dicaux. Le liquide qui gicle hors du
bloc-piles peut provoquer des irritations ou des brOlures.
6) R_paration
