Mains plug replacement
(U.K. & Ireland only)
• Should your mains plug need replacing and you
are competent to do this, proceed as instructed
below. If you are in doubt, contact an authorized
DEWALT repair agent or a qualified electrician.
• Disconnect the plug from the supply.
• Cut off the plug and dispose of it safely; a plug
with bared copper conductors is dangerous if
engaged in a live socket outlet.
• Only fit 13 Amperes BS1363A approved plugs
fitted with the correctly rated fuse (1).
• The cable wire colours, or a letter, will be marked
at the connection points of most good quality
plugs. Attach the wires to their respective points
in the plug (see below). Brown is for Live (L) (2)
and Blue is for Neutral (N) (4).
• Before replacing the top cover of the mains plug
ensure that the cable restraint (3) is holding the
outer sheath of the cable firmly and that the two
leads are correctly fixed at the terminal screws.
Never use a light socket.
Never connect the live (L) or neutral (N)
wires to the earth pin marked E or .
Using an extension cable
An extension cord should not be used unless
absolutely necessary. Use an approved extension
cable suitable for the power input of your charger
(see technical data). The minimum conductor size is
0.5 mm2; the maximum length is 30 m.
Always switch off the tool before
inserting or removing the battery pack.
Before using the tool, make sure the
battery pack is properly seated.

Charging the battery pack (fig. A)
Always check the mains prior to charging the battery
pack. If the mains is functioning but the battery pack
does not charge, take your charger to an authorized
DEWALT repair agent. Whilst charging, the charger
and the battery pack may become warm to touch.
This is a normal condition and does not indicate a
problem.
Do not charge the battery pack at
ambient temperatures < 4 °C or > 40 °C.
Recommended charging temperature:
approx. 24 °C.
• To charge the battery pack (9), insert it into the
charger (10) as shown and plug in the charger.
Be sure that the battery pack is fully seated in the
charger. The red charging indicator (11) will blink.
After approx. 1 hour, it will stop blinking and
remain on. The battery pack is now fully charged
and the charger automatically switches to
equalization mode. After approx. 2-4 hours, it will
switch to maintenance charge mode. The battery
pack can be removed at any time or left in the
connected charger indefinitely.
• The red charging indicator flashes rapidly to
indicate a charging problem. Reinsert the battery
pack or try a new one. If the new pack also
refuses to charge, have your charger tested by
an authorized DEWALT repair agent.
• When plugged into power sources such as
generators or sources that convert DC to AC,
the red charging indicator (11) may blink twice,
switch off and repeat. This indicates a temporary
problem of the power source. The charger will
automatically switch back to normal operation.
Assembly and adjustment
Prior to assembly and adjustment,
always remove the battery pack.

whenever you notice decreased
battery pack performance.
• Start the charging process as described above.
• Press the refresh mode button (12). The red
charging indicator will stop blinking momentarily,
quickly blink three times and then resume blinking
as before. The charger is now in refresh mode.
• After up to 8 hours, the red charging indicator will
stop blinking and remain on. The battery pack is
now fully charged and can be removed at any
time or left in the connected charger indefinitely.

Forward/reverse slider (fig. A)
• To select forward or reverse rotation, use the
forward/reverse slider (2) (see arrows on tool).
Always wait until the motor has come to
a complete standstill before changing the
direction of rotation.
Two gear selector (fig. A)
Your tool is fitted with a two gear selector (3) to vary
the speed/torque ratio.
1 low speed/high torque
(drilling large holes, driving screws)
2 high speed/low torque (drilling smaller holes)
For speed rates, refer to the technical data.
• Always push the two gear selector
completely forward or backward.
• Do not change gears at full speed or
during use.
Removing and fitting the chuck (fig. D & E)
• Open the chuck jaws as far as possible.
• Insert a screwdriver into the chuck and remove
the chuck retaining screw (14) by turning
clockwise as shown in figure D.

Instructions for use
• Always observe the safety instructions
and applicable regulations.
• Be aware of the location of pipework and
wiring.
• Apply only a gentle pressure to the tool.
Excessive force does not speed up
drilling but decreases tool performance
and may shorten tool life.
• To minimise stalling on break-through,
progressively reduce the drill point
pressure towards the end of the operation.
• Keep the motor running when pulling the
bit back out of a drilled hole. This will
help prevent jamming.
Prior to operation:
• Make sure your battery pack is (fully) charged.
• Insert the appropriate bit.
• Mark the spot where the hole is to be drilled.
• Select forward or reverse rotation.
Switching on and off (fig. A)
• To run the tool, press the variable speed switch
(1). The pressure exerted on the variable speed
switch determines the tool speed.
• To stop the tool, release the switch.
Drilling in wood
• Holes in wood can be made with the same twist
drills used for metal. These bits may overheat
unless pulled out frequently to clear chips from
the flutes.
• For larger holes use Auger bits.
• Use a block of wood to back up workpieces that
may splinter.
Percussion drilling
Drilling in masonry
• Use carbide-tipped masonry bits. Keep even
force on the drill. A smooth, even flow of dust
indicates the proper drilling rate.
Consult your dealer for further information on the
appropriate accessories.
Maintenance
Your DEWALT Power Tool has been designed to
operate over a long period of time with a minimum
of maintenance. Continuous satisfactory operation
depends upon proper tool care and regular cleaning.
