General Power Tool Safety Warnings

_WARNINGt Read all safety warnings and instructions. Failure to follow the

warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.

Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.

The term "power tool" in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded)
power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.

1) Work area safety
a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
b) 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.

c) 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

outdoor 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

circuit 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, non-skid 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 energising 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 jewellery. Keep your hair,

clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery 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. Any power

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
operation. 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

instructions, 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,
additionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation

or bums.

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 toss.

• Use auxiliary handles supplied with the tool. Loss of control can cause personal injury.

• Hold power tools 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 toot "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 wilt 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. If auxiliary handle

not provided, grip toot at bottom of battery. Loss of control can cause personal injury.

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 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.

workwithapprovedsafetyequipment,suchasthosedustmasksthatarespecially

designedtofilteroutmicroscopicparticles.

• 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.

_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.

ZhWARNING: ALWAYS use safety glasses. Everyday eye glasses are NOT safety

glasses. Also use face or dust mask if cutting operation is dusty. ALWAYS WEAR
CERTIFIED SAFETY EQUIPMENT:

• ANSI Z87.1 eye protection (CAN/CSA Z94.3)

• ANSI S12.6 (S3.19) hearing protection

• NIOSH/OSHA/MSHA respiratory protection

z_WARNING: Do not store or carry battery pack so that metal objects can contact

exposed battery pack terminals. For example, do not place battery pack in aprons,
pockets, toot boxes, product kit boxes, drawers, etc. with loose nails, screws, keys, etc.
without battery cap. Transporting batteries can possibly cause fires if the battery pack
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 pack
terminals are protected and well insulated from materials that could contact them and

cause a short circuit.

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.

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 POWER 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 POWER 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 B.

2. Slide the charger (7) onto the battery pack
(5) as shown in figure B1 and let the

battery pack charge initially for 12 hours.
After the initial charge, under normal
usage, your battery pack should be fully
charged in 6 to 12 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 (10) on the back of the
battery pack (figure C) and slide out.

IMPORTANT CHARGING NOTES

1. After normal usage, your battery pack should be fully
charged in 6 to 12 hours. If the battery pack is run-down

completely, it may take up to 12 hours to become fully
charged. Your battery pack was sent from the factory in

an uncharged condition. Before attempting to use it, it

must be charged for at least 12 hours.

2. DO NOT charge the power 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 power
pack. Longest life and best performance can be obtained if power 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 power pack does not charge properlyi(1) Check current at receptacle by
plugging in a tamp 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 power 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 power pack and charger to your local Black & Decker service center.
See Tools Electric in yellow pages.

5. The power 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 power
pack in a depleted condition.

6. To prolong power pack life, avoid leaving the power 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 power pack life.

7. When the battery pack is inserted into the charger, the red "Charging Indicator" light wilt
come on (cup charger only) indicating that there is contact between the battery pack

and charger. The light will stay on as tong as the battery pack is in the charger and the
charger is plugged into a working outlet. ItWILL NOT flash, go out or change to a
different color when the charging cycle is complete.

8. The power 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.

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.
z_WARNING: Drill may stall (if overloaded or improperly used) causing a twist. Always

expect the stall. Grip the drill firmly with both hands to control the twisting action and
prevent toss 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.
