For your safety and the safety of others, read and understand the safety recommendations and operating instructions before operating a drill.
Always wear protective equipment:
WARNING!
Impact resistant eye protection
must be worn while operating
or working near this tool.
For additional information on eye protection and face
protection, refer to Federal OSHA Regulations, 29 Code
of Federal Regulations, Section 1910.133., Eye and Face
Protection, and American National Standards Institute,
ANSI Z87.1, Occupational and Educational Eye and Face
Protection. Z87.1 is available from the American National
Standards Institute, Inc., 11 West 42nd Street, New York,
NY 10036.
CAUTION!
Personal hearing protection is
recommended when operating
or working near this tool.
Hearing protection is recommended in high noise areas
85 dBA or greater. The operation of other tools and
equipment in the area, reflective surfaces, process noises
and resonant structures can substantially contribute to,
and increase the noise level in the area. Excessive air
pressure above 90 PSIG or worn motor components can
also increase sound level emitted by tool. Proper hearing
conservation measures, including annual audiograms
and training in the use and fit of hearing protection devices
may be necessary. For additional information on hearing
protection, refer to Federal Regulations, Section 1910.95,
Occupational Noise Exposure, and American National
Standards Institute, ANSI S12.6, Hearing Protectors.

WARNING
Wear respirator where
necessary.
Drilling operations may produce hazardous fumes and/or
dust. To avoid adverse health effects utilize adequate
ventilation and/or wear a respirator. Respirators should be
selected, fitted, used and maintained in accordance with
Occupational Safety and Health Administration and other
applicable regulations. Read the material safety data
sheet of any cutting fluids or materials involved in the
drilling process.
WARNING
!
Do not wear loose fitting clothes,
long hair, gloves, ties or jewelry.
Cleco drills are designed to operate on 90 psig (6.2 bar)
maximum air pressure. If the tool is properly sized and
applied, higher air pressure is unnecessary. Excessive air
pressure increases the loads and stresses on the tool
parts and may result in breakage. Installation of a filterregulator-lubricator in the air supply line ahead of the tool
is recommended.
Before the tool is connected to the air supply, check the
throttle for proper operation (i. e., throttle moves freely and
returns to closed position). Being careful not to endanger
adjacent personnel, clear the air hose of accumulated
dust and moisture. Before removing a tool from service or
changing a drill bit, tap, reamer, or any accessory make
sure the air line is shut off and drained of air. This will
prevent the tool from operating if the throttle is accidently
engaged.
CAUTION
!
• drill motor stalls by excessive load being applied to drill
bit or drill bit snags on material being drilled.
• on break-through when the drill bit passes through the
material being drilled. User must be prepared to resist
torque.
Sudden and high reaction torque may
be experienced with any drill if:
Follow good machine shop practices.
Rotating shafts and
moving components
can entangle and entrap, and can result
in serious injuries.
Never wear long hair,
loose-fitting clothes,
gloves, ties, or jewelry when working
with or near a drill of
any type.

Safety Recommendations
CAUTION
!
• Drill bits are sharp. Handle them carefully to avoid injury.
• Cutting tool maximum speed rating must equal or exceed
rated speed of tool.
• Drill bits or accessories not centered properly in the chuck
can cause excessive wobble or vibration.
• Use appropriately sized chuck key to securely tighten drill
bit, tap, or reamer in drill chuck. Always remove chuck key
before starting tool.
• Use care when drilling because of the possibility of the
cutting tool bending or breaking.
CAUTION
!
Tools equipped with chuck capacity over 1/4" should have
at least one handle offset at a right angle to drill axis to
counteract torque developed by tool. If tool is equipped with
a chuck over 3/8" capacity, two handles at right angles to
the drill axis should be used. One handle should contain the
tool throttle, such as pistol grip or offset handle models.
Always use a dead handle with low RPM — high torque
tools.
WARNING
!
Repetitive work motions and/or vibration
may cause injury to hands and arms.
Use minimum hand grip force consistent
with proper control and safe operation.
Keep body and hands warm and dry.
Avoid anything that inhibits blood circulation.
Avoid continuous vibration exposure.
Keep wrists straight.
Avoid repeated bending of wrists and hands.
Some individuals may be susceptible to disorders of the
hands and arms when performing tasks consisting of highly
repetitive motions and/or exposure to extended vibration.
Cumulative trauma disorders such as carpal tunnel syndrome and tendonitis can be caused or aggravated by
repetitious, forceful exertions of the hands and arms.
Vibration may contribute to a condition called Raynaud's
Syndrome. These disorders develop gradually over periods of weeks, months, and years. It is presently unknown
to what extent exposure to vibrations or repetitive motions
may contribute to the disorders. Hereditary factors,
vasculatory or circulatory problems, exposure to cold and
dampness, diet, smoking and work practices are thought to
contribute to the conditions. Any tool operator should be
aware of the following warning signs and symptoms so that
a problem can be addressed before it becomes a debilitating injury. Any user suffering prolonged symptoms of
tingling, numbness, blanching of fingers, clumsiness or
weakened grip, nocturnal pain in the hand, or any other
disorder of the shoulders, arms, wrists, or fingers is advised
to consult a physician. If it is determined that the symptoms
are job related or aggravated by movements and postures
dictated by the job design, it may be necessary for the
employer to take steps to prevent further occurrences.
These steps might include, but are not limited to, repositioning the workpiece or redesigning the workstation, reassigning workers to other jobs, rotating jobs, changing work
pace, and/or changing the type of tool used so as to
minimize stress on the operator. Some tasks may require
more than one type of tool to obtain the optimum operator/
tool/task relationship.
The following suggestions will help reduce or moderate the
effects of repetitive work motions and/or extended vibration
exposure:
• Use a minimum hand grip force consistent with proper
control and safe operation
• Keep body and hands warm and dry (cold weather is
reported to be a major factor contributing to Raynaud's
Syndrome)
• Tasks should be performed in such a manner that the
wrists are maintained in a neutral position, which is
not flexed, hyperextended, or turned side to side.
AvoidAvoid
Extension
• Stressful postures should be avoided — select a tool
appropriate for the job and work location
• Avoid highly repetitive movements of hands and wrists,
and continuous vibration exposure (after each period of
operation, exercise to increase blood circulation)
• Keep tool well maintained and replace worn parts

Safety Recommendations
Work gloves with vibration reducing liners and wrist supports are available from some manufacturers of industrial
work gloves. Tool wraps and grips are also available from
a number of different manufacturers. These gloves, wraps,
and wrist supports are designed to reduce and moderate
the effects of extended vibration exposure and repetitive
wrist trauma. Since they vary widely in design, material,
thickness, vibration reduction, and wrist support qualities,
it is recommended that the glove, tool wrap, or wrist support
manufacturer be consulted for items designed for your
specific application. WARNING! Proper fit of gloves is
important. Improperly fitted gloves may restrict blood
flow to the fingers and can substantially reduce grip
strength.
Warning Labels
The warning labels found on these tools are an essential
part of this product. Labels should not be removed. Labels
should be checked periodically for legibility. Replace warning labels when missing or when the information can no
longer be read. Replacement labels can be ordered as any
spare part.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
FOR YOUR SAFETY AND THE SAFETY OF OTHERS READ AND UNDERSTAND THE SAFETY
RECOMMENDATIONS ON PAGES 2 thru 4 BEFORE OPERATING A DRILL.
OPERATION
The No. 8 Series drills are designed to operate on 90 psig air
pressure. They should be connected to a 1/4" hose up to 8'
in length. If additional length is required, a 3/8" or larger hose
should be connected to the 1/4" hose.
Pistol grip drills are started by pulling the trigger and stopped
by releasing the trigger. Lever operated drills start by depressing the lever and stop by releasing it.
LUBRICATION
An automatic in-line filter-lubricator is recommended as it
increases tool life and keeps the tool in sustained operation.
The in-line lubricator should be regularly checked and filled
with a good grade of 10W machine oil. Proper adjustment of
the in-line lubricator is performed by placing a sheet of paper
next to the exhaust ports and holding the throttle open
approximately 30 seconds. The lubricator is properly set
when a light stain of oil collects on the paper. Excessive
amounts of oil should be avoided.
In the event that it becomes necessary to store the tool for
an extended period of time (overnight, weekend, etc.), it
should receive a generous amount of lubrication at that time
and again when returned to service. The tool should be
stored in a clean and dry environment.
Application of the tool should govern how frequently it is
greased. It is recommended that the idler gears, gear pins
and bearings receive a generous amount of NLGI 2-EP
grease. Grease is applied by unscrewing (left hand threads)
the spindle bearing retainer, No. 202031, and removing the
gear train from the front of the gear case.

SERVICE INSTRUCTIONS — REASSEMBLY
REASSEMBLY—GENERAL
All parts should be washed in a solvent and inspected for
damage or wear. Particular attention should be given to all
bearings, gears, gear pins, and rotor blades as failure of
these parts could cause damage to more expensive parts.
Particular attention should be paid to the governor assembly, replacing any of its' parts that show wear or damage. It
is recommended that new rotor blades be installed at each
repair cycle. If not replaced, the used ones must measure a
minimum of 3/16" (4.7mm) at both ends. Failure of these
parts could cause damage to more expensive components.
Must be replaced if less than
3/16" (4.7mm) on either end.
All gears, gear pins, and open bearings should receive a
generous amount of NLGI 2-EP grease during reassembly.
Reassembly of all of the various subassemblies is in the
