General Safety Rules

A WARNIN!! To reduce risk of injury, user must read instruction manual

F_ l t f_ll II t t L _ d b l, It [ t h k

aLure o o ow a ins ruc ions is e e ow may resu in e ec ric s oc, fire
and/or serious injury. The term "power tool" in all of the warnings listed below
refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless)

power tool

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

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 tool& 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. Have damaged cords repaired

or replaced by an authorized service center. Use only 3-wire extension cords that have
3-prong grounding-type plugs and 3-pole receptacles that accept the tool's plug.

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. Make sure

your extension cord is in good condition. When using an extension cord, be sure to use
one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. An undersized cord will
cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. The following

table shows the correct size to use depending on cord length and nameplate ampere

rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the
heavier the cord.

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 safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Safety equipment such as dust

mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate
conditions will reduce personal injuries.

c) Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before plugging

in. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or plugging in 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 at 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. Air vents often cover moving parts and should also be avoided.

g) ff devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities,

ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of these devices can reduce

dust-related hazards.

4) POWERTOOL 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 ff 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 tools 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 and in the manner intended for the particular type of power tool, 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) 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.

Additional Safety Rules for Hammerdrills

* 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 tool "live" and shock the operator.
Be certain that the material being drilled does not conceal electric or gas service and that

their locations have been verified with the utility companies.
Wear ear protectors. Exposure to noise can cause hearing loss.
Use auxiliary handles supplied with the tool. Loss of control can cause personal injury.

Keep a firm grip on the tool at all times. Do not attempt to operate this tool without holding
it with beth hands. Operating this tool with one hand will result in loss of control Breaking

through or encountering hard materials such as re-bar may be hazardous as well. Tighten the

side handle securely before use.

° Use clamps or other practical way to secure and support the work'piece to a stable

platform. Holding the work by hand or against your body is unstable and may lead to loss of

control

* Wear safety goggles or other eye protection. Hammering operations cause chips to fly.

Flying particles can cause permanent eye damage. Wear a dust mask or respirator for appli-
cations that generate dust. Ear protection may be required for most applications.

. Keep a firm grip on the tool at all times. Do not attempt to operate this tool without

holding it with both hands. Operating this tool with one hand will result in loss of control.
Breaking through or encountering hard materials such as re-bar may be hazardous as well.

° Do not operate this tool for long periods of time. Vibration caused by hammer action may

be harmful to your hands and arms. Use gloves to provide extra cushion and limit exposure
by taking frequent rest periods.

° Do not recondition bits yourself. Chisel reconditioning should be done by an authorized

specialist. Improperly reconditioned chisels could cause injury.

° Wear gloves when operating tool or changing bits. Accessible metalparts on the tool and

bits may get extremely hot during operation. Small bits of broken material may damage bare

hands.

° Never lay the tool down until the bit has come to a complete stop. Moving bits could

cause injury.

° Do not strike jammed bits with a hammer to dislodge them. Fragments of metal or mate-

rial chips could dislodge and cause injury.

. Keep the power cord away from the rotating bit. Do not wrap the cord around any part

of your body. An electric cord wrapped around a spinning bit may cause personal injury and
loss of control

WARNING: ALWAYS use safety glasses. Everyday eyeglasses 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 $12.6 ($3.19) hearing protection,

° NIOSH/OSHA/MSHA respiratory protection.

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.

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.

° 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 disburse dust, which may cause serious and
permanent respiratory or other inju_ Always use NIOSH/OSHA approved respiratory protection
appropriate for the dust exposure. Direct particles away from face and body.

INTENDED USE

The DW505 and DW520 heavy-duty hammerdrills have been designed for professional drilling
and hammerdrilling, screwdriving and light chipping, chiselling, demolition applications and for

carbide-tipped core drilling at various work sites (i.e., construction sites). DO NOT use under
humid conditions or in presence of flammable liquids or gases.
The DW505 and DW520 heavy-duty hammerdrills are professional power tools. DO NOT let chil-

dren come into contact with the tool. Supervision is required for those under 16 years of age.

Side Handle (Fig. 1)

A WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury, ALWAYS operate the tool with the side
handle properly installed. Failure to do so may result in the side handle slipping during tool

operation and subsequent loss of control Hold tool with both hands to maximize control.

A side handle (F) is supplied with this hammerdrill. It clamps to the front of the gear case as
shown in Figure 1 and can be rotated 360 °for right- or left- hand use.

After the side handle is rotated into position, it should be pushed rearward until the slots (H)
on the lip of the side handle are aligned and fully engaged with the projecting tabs (I) on the
underside of the gear case. The side handle is then securely clamped by turning the handle grip
(G) clockwise until tight.

Switch (Fig. 2)

To start hammerdrill, depress the trigger switch (A). To stop hammerdrill, release the trigger
switch.

A WARNING: Be sure to release the locking mechanism before disconnecting the plug from

the power supply, Failure to do so will cause the hammerdrill to start immediately the next time
it is plugged in. Damage or personal injury could result.

To lock the trigger switch in the ON position for continuous operation, depress the trigger switch
and push up the locking button (B). The tool will continue to run. To turn the tool OFF, from a
locked-on condition, squeeze and release the trigger once. Before using the tool (each time), be
sure that the locking button release mechanism is working freely.

DO NOT lock the switch on when drilling by hand so that you can instantly release the
trigger switch if the bit binds in the hole. The locking button is for use ONLY when the hammerdrill
is mounted in a drill press stand or other wise held stationary.

VARIABLE SPEED
The variable speed trigger switch permits speed control. The farther the trigger switch is

depressed, the higher the speed of the hammerdrill.
NOTE: Use lower speeds for starting holes without a centerpunch, drilling in metal, plastics or

ceramics, or driving screws. Higher speeds are better for drilling in wood and composition board
and for using abrasive and polishing accessories.

REVERSING LEVER
The reversing lever (C)is used to reverse the hammerdrill for backing out screws or jammed bits.

It is located above the trigger, shown in Figure 2. To reverse the hammerdrill, turn it off and push
the reversing lever to the left (when viewed from the chuck end).

To position the lever for forward operation, turn the hammerdrill off and push the lever to the right
(when viewed from the chuck end).

High/Low Speed Operation (Fig. 1, 3)

The two speed gear drive in the dual range hammerdrill permits effective operation over an
extended range of applications with greater selection of accessories.

For LOW SPEED operation, the shift knob (D) located on the underside of the hammerdrill
should be rotated so the low speed setting is toward the front of the tool.

For HIGH SPEED operation, the shift knob (D) should be rotated so the high speed setting is
toward the front of the tool.

The gear train has been designed for shifting only when the unit is off. It may be necessary
however, to rotate the chuck slightly by hand to align the gears while turning the shift knob. DO
NOT A-I-I-EMPTTO CHANGE SPEEDS by turning the shift knob when the tool is running. Doing
so will damage the gear train.

Hammer/Drill Selector (Fig. 4)

To switch the tool from the drilling mode to the hammering mode (or vice-versa) rotate the
selector (E) to the applicable symbol as shown in Figure 4.

For straight drilling, align selector with drill bit symbol.
For hammering, align selector with the hammer symbol, as shown in the figure.

NOTE: The selector must be in either drill or hammer/drill mode at all times. There are no
operable positions between the two.

Chuck

i_ WARNING: Burn Hazard. ALWAYS wear gloves when changing bits. Accessible metal parts
on the tool and bits may get extremely hot during operation. Small bits of broken material may
damage bare hands.

To insert the bit, open chuck jaws by turning collar with fingers counterclockwise (when viewed
from the chuck end) and insert shank of bit about 1/2" (13 mm) into chuck. Tighten chuck
collar by hand. Place chuck key in each of the three holes and tighten in clockwise direction. It's
important to tighten chuck with all three holes.
To release the bit, turn collar key counterclockwise in just one hole, then loosen the chuck by
hand turning collar counterclockwise (when viewed from the chuck end).

OPERATION

Drilling

WARNING: Toreduce the risk of serious personal injury, turn tool off and disconnect tool

from power source before making any adjustments or removing/installing attachments
or accessories.

A WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury, ALWAYS ensure workpiece is anchored
or clamped firmly, If drilling thin material, use a wood "back-up" block to prevent damage to the

material

1. Use sharp drill bits only. For WOOD, use the low speed setting and twist drill bits, spade bits,
power auger bits, or hole saws. For METAL, usethe low speed setting and steel twist drill bits

or hole saws. For MASONRY, such as brick, cement, cinder block, etc., use carbide-tipped
bits rated for percussion drilling. Use low speed for bits greater than 3/8" (10 mm).

2. Always apply pressure in a straight line with the bit. Use enough pressure to keep drill biting,
but do not push hard enough to stall the motor or deflect the bit.

3. Hold tool firmly with both hands to control the twisting action of the drill.

4. IF DRILL STALLS, it is usually because it is being overloaded or improperly used. RELEASE
TRIGGER IMMEDIATELY, remove drill bit from work, and determine cause of stalling. DO

NOT CLICK TRIGGER ON AND OFF IN AN AFFEMPT TO START A STALLED DRILL
mTHIS CAN DAIVlAGETHE DRILL.

5. To minimize stalling or breaking through the material, reduce pressure on drill and ease the
bit through the last fractional part of the hole.

6. Keep the motor running when pulling the bit back out of a drilled hole. This will help prevent

jamming.

7. With variable speed drills there is no need to center punch the point to be drilled. Use a slow
speed to start the hole and accelerate by squeezing the trigger harder when the hole is deep
enough to drill without the bit skipping out.

DRILLING IN METAL
USE ONLY in the low-speed gear range. Start drilling with slow speed and increase to full

power while applying firm pressure on the tool. A smooth even flow of metal chips indicates the
proper drilling rate. Use a cutting lubricant when drilling metals. The exceptions are cast iron and
brass which should be drilled dry.

NOTE: Large [5/16" (8 mm) to 1/2" (13 mm)] holes in steel can be made easier if a pilot hole
[5/32" (4 mm) to 3/16" (5 mm)] is drilled first.

DRILLING IN WOOD
USE ONLY in the Iow-spead gear range. Start drilling with slow speed and increase to full

power while applying firm pressure on the tool. 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. Work that is apt to splinter should be backed up with a block of wood.

DRILLING IN MASONRY
When drilling in masonry, use carbide tipped bits rated for percussion drilling and be certain that

the bit is sharp. For holes up to 3/8" (10 mm) diameter use the high-speed gear range. For holes
larger than 3/8" (10 mm), use the the low-speed gear range. Ensure that the hammer mode is
selected. Use a constant and firm force on the tool to drill most effectively. A smooth, even flow
of dust indicates the proper drilling rate.
