J

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, clothing 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
@ Do not force the power tooL Use the correct power tool for your application. The

correct power too/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 ff on and off. Any power too/

that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.

c) Disconnect the plug from the power source andlor 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) SERVICE
@ 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

• Use auxiliary handle(s), if 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 or its own cord. Cutting

accessory contacting a "live" wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool "live" and

could give the operator an electric shock.

• Wear ear protectors with impact drills. Exposure to noise can cause hearing loss.

• ALWAYS use the side handle supplied with the tool Tighten the side handle securely before
use. 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

may be hazardous as well.

• Use clamps or other practical way to secure and support the workpiece to a stable

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

control

• Keep handles dry, clean, free from oil and grease. It is recommended to use rubber gloves.
This will enable better control

• Air vents often cover moving parts and should be avoided. Loose clothes, jeweller}! or

long hair can be caught in moving parts.

• An extension cord must have adequate wire size (AWG or American Wire Gauge) for

safety. The smaller the gauge number of the wire, the greater the capacity of the cable, that is

16gauge has more capacity than 18gauge. An undersized cord wll/ cause a drop in line voltage

resulting in loss of power and overheating. When using more than one extension to make up

the total length, be sure each individual extension contains at least the minimum wire size. 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.

General Power Tool Safety Warnings

A ARNIN!! Read all safety warnings and all 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 p/ugs 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.

If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a ground fault

circuff interrupter (GFCI) protected supply. Use of a GFCI reduces the risk of electric

shock.

3) PERSONAL SAFETY
@ 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.

A 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 EQUIPMENX

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

• ANSI $12.6 ($3.19) hearing protection,

• NIOSH/OSHA/MSHA respiratory protection.
A 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.
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. Toreduce

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.

A 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,

_WARNING: Always wear proper personal hearing protection that conforms to ANSI

$12.6 ($3.19) during use. Under some conditions and duration of use, noise from this product

may contribute to hearing loss.

Be sure your power supply agrees with the nameplate marking. Voltage decrease of more than
10% will cause loss of power and overheating. DEWALT tools are factory tested; if this tool does
not operate, check power supply.

COMPONENTS (Fig. 1, 6)

_, WARNING: Never modify the power tool or any part of it. Damage or personal injury could result.

A. Trigger switch D. Chuck
B. Reversing lever E. Indicator light (DWD220)

C. Side handle

INTENDED USE

These heavy-duty drills are designed for professional drilling applications. DO NOT use under
humid conditions or in presence of flammable liquids or gases.

These heavy-duty drills are professional power tools. DO NOT let children come into contact with
the tool. Supervision is required when inexperienced operators use this tool.

Side Handle (Fig. 1)

_WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury, ALWAYS operate the tool with the side
handle properly installed and tightened. 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 (C) is supplied with your drill. The side handle clamps to the front of the gear case
and can be rotated 360 degrees to permit 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 (G)on the underside of
the gear case. The side handle is then securely clamped by turning clockwise until tight.

Trigger Switch (Fig. 2)

Tostart drill, depress trigger switch (A); to stop the drill, release trigger.
VARIABLE SPEED TRIGGER SWITCH (FIG. 2}

The variable speed trigger switch (A) permits speed control. The farther the trigger switch is
depressed, the higher the speed of the drill.

NOTE: Use lower speeds for starting holes, drilling in plastics or ceramics or driving screws.
REVERSING LEVER (FIG. 2}

The reversing lever (B), located above the trigger switch, changes the direction of rotation of the drill
and is used when backing out screws and jammed drill bits.

Tooperate the tool in reverse, release the trigger switch and push the lever to the left (when viewed
from the chuck end).

Tooperate the drill in forward, release the trigger switch and push the lever to the right (when viewed
from the chuck end).

Return the reversing lever to the forward position after all operations in reverse are completed.

E-Clutch TM Anti-Lock Control (Fig. 6)

DWD220

Your DEWALT drill may come with an electronic feature called E-Clutch TM Anti-Lock Control. It is
designed to help you control the drill during a stall and keep it from pulling out of your hands. This
may be encountered when drilling in steel or using large bits in wood.

As a stall situation presents itself, the motor cycles on and off for a set period of time. This takes
up the reaction of the stall and allows you to keep the drill under control. The speed control senses
your release of the trigger and resets the motor to run again.

Figure 6 shows the instruction label (H) mounted on the housing. There are two alert modes.

1. Engaged Mode: When a stall situation presents itself, the indicator light (E)will come on and
stay on as the motor cycles on and off for a set period of time before the E-Clutch TM Anti-Lock

Control completely shuts the tool down. When the unit is running in normal mode, there will be
no light.

2. Problem Mode: A series of continual flashes of the indicator light as the trigger is pulled
indicates that the electronics are no longer functioning. The tool may still be able to function
without the benefit of E-Clutch TM Anti-Lock Control but should be serviced as soon as possible.

OPERATION

WARNING: To reduce 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. An accidental start-up can cause injury,

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.

•_,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.
_, WARNING: Do not attempt to tighten or loosen drillbits (or any other accessory) by gripping the
front part of the chuck and turning the tool on. Damage to the chuck and personal injury may occur.

Keyed Chucks (Fig. 1)

DWD210G, DWD216G, DWD220

Open chuck jaws by turning collar with fingers and insert shank of bit about 3/4" (19 ram) 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 prevent slippage. To
release bit, turn chuck key COUNTERCLOCKWISE injust one hole, then loosen the chuck by hand.

Any authorized DEWALT service center can install a keyless chuck in place of a keyed chuck.

Keyless Chucks (Fig. 1, 3-5)

DWD215G

The DWD215G features a keyless chuck with one rotating sleeve for one-handed operation of the
chuck.

TO INSERT A DRILL BIT OR OTHER ACCESSORY

1. Grasp the black sleeve of the chuck (D) with one hand and use the other hand to secure
the tool. Rotate the sleeve counterclockwise far enough to accept the desired accessory
(Fig. 3).

2. Insert the accessory about 3/4" (19 mm) into the chuck and tighten securely by rotating the
chuck sleeve clockwise with one hand while holding the tool with the other hand. Continue to
rotate the chuck sleeve until several ratchet clicks are heard to ensure full gripping power.

Torelease the accessory, repeat Step 1 above.
Be sure to tighten chuck with one hand on the chuck sleeve and one hand holding the tool for

maximum tightness.

Drilling

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

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.

_, WARNING: Drill may staff if overloaded causing a sudden twist. Always expect the stall. Grip

the drill firmly with both hands to control the twisting action and avoid injury,

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 A'I-I'EMPT TO START A STALLED DRILL --
THIS CAN DAMAGE THE 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.

DIRECTIVES POUR UN USAGE ULTERIEUR

Le terme _outil dectrique _ cite dans les avertissements se rapporte a votre outil dectrique

alimentation sur secteur (avec ill) ou par piles (sans fil).

1) S#CURIT# DU LIEU DE TRAVAIL

a) Tenir I'aire de travail propre et bien _clair_e. Les Iieux encombres ou sombres sont

propices aux accidents.

b) Ne pas faire fonctionner d'outils _lectriques dans un milieu d_flagrant, tel qu'en

presence de liquides, de gaz ou de poussi_res inflammables. Les outils dectriques
produisent des etincelles qui pourraient enflammer la poussiere ou les vapeurs.

c) Eloigner les enfants et les personnes a proximit_ pendant I'utilisation d'un outil

_lectrique. Une distraction pourrait en faire perdre la ma_trisea I'utilisateur.

2) SI_CURITI_ EN MATI#RE D'I_LECTRICITI_

a) Les fiches des outils _lectriques doivent correspondre a la prise. Ne jamais modifier

la fiche d'aucune faqon. Ne jamais utiliser de fiche d'adaptation avec un outil

_lectrique mis a la terre. Le risque de choc dectrique sera reduit par I'utilisation de fiches
non modifiees correspondant a la prise.

b) Eviter tout contact physique avec des surfaces mises a la terre comme des tuyaux,

des radiateurs, des cuisini_res et des r_frig_rateurs. Le risque de choc dectrique est

plus deve si votre corps est mis a la terre.

c) Ne pas exposer les outils _lectriques a la pluie oub I'humidit_. La penetration de I'eau

dans un outil dectrique augmente le risque de choc dectrique.

d) Ne pas utiliser le cordon de fa_on abusive. Ne jamais utiliser le cordon pour

transporter, tirer ou d_brancher un outil _lectrique. Tenir le cordon _loign_ de
la chaleur, de I'huile, des bords tranchants et des pi_ces mobiles. Les cordons

endommages ou enchev_tres augmentent les risques de choc dectrique.

e) Pour I'utilisation d'un outil _lectrique a I'ext_rieur, se servir d'une rallonge

convenant a cette application. L'uti/isation d'une ra//onge conque pour/'exterieur reduira
les risques de choc dectrique.

S'il est impossible d'_viter I'utilisation d'un outil _lectrique dans un endroit
humide, brancher I'outil dans une prise ou sur un circuit d'alimentation dot_s d'un
disjoncteur de fuite a la terre (GFCI). L'utilisation de ce type de disjoncteur reduit les

risques de choc electrique.

3) SI_CURITI_ PERSONNELLE

a) Etre vigilant, surveiller le travail effectu_ et faire preuve de jugement Iorsqu'un outil

_lectrique est utilis_. Ne pas utiliser d'outil _lectrique en cas de fatigue ou sous

dectrique dont /'interrupteur est defectueux est dangereux et doit _tre repare.

c) D_brancher la fiche de la source d'alimentation et/ou du bloc-piles de I'outil

_lectrique avant de faire tout r_glage ou changement d'accessoire ou avant de
ranger I'outil. Ces mesures preventives reduisent les risques de demarrage accidentel de
I'outil dectrique.

d) Ranger les outils _lectriques hers de la pottle des enfants et ne permettre

aucune personne n'_tant pas famili_re avec un outil _lectrique ou son mode
d'emploi d'utiliser cet outil. Les outi/s dectriques deviennent dangereux entre/es mains

d'utilisateurs inexperimentes.

e) Entretien des outils _lectriques. V_rifier si les pi_ces mobiles sent mal align_es ou

coinc_es, si des pi_ces sent bris_es ou pr_sentent toute autre condition susceptible
de nuire au ben 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 dectriques mal entretenus.
S'assurer que les outils de coupe sent aiguis_s et propres. Les outils de coupe bien
entretenus et affOtes sont moins susceptibles de se coincer et sont plus faciles a ma_triser.

g) Utiliser I'outil _lectrique, les accessoires, les forets, etc. conform_ment aux

pr_sentes directives en tenant compte des conditions de travail et du travail

effectuer. L'utilisation d'un outil dectrique pour toute operation autre que celle pour laquelle
ila ete conquest dangereuse.

5) RI_PARATION

a) Faire r_parer I'outil _lectrique par un r_parateur professionnel en n'utilisant que

des pi_ces de rechange identiques. Celapermettra de maintenir une utilisation securitaire

de I'outil dectrique.

R_gles de s_curit_ additionnelles

• Utiliser la/les poign_e(s) auxiliaire(s) si fournie(s) avec I'outil. Une perte de contr_le de

I'outil pourrait occasionner des dommages corporels.

• Tenir I'outil par les surfaces isol_es pr_vues a cet effet pendant toute utilisation o_

I'organe de coupe pourrait entrer en contact avec des ills _lectriques caches ou son

propre cordon. Tout contact de I'organe de coupe avec un fil sous tension mettra les parties

metalliques exposees de I'outil sous tension et dectrocutera I'utilisateur.

• Pendant I'utilisation d'une perceuse a percussion, porter une protection auditive. Le
bruit en resultant pourrait occasionner une perte de I'acuite auditive.

• Utiliser SYSTE-MATIQUEMENT la poignee laterale foumie avec I'outil. Arrimer soigneusement
la poignee laterale avant toute utilisation. Maintenir systematiquement I'outil fermement. Ne pas

tenter d'utiliser cet outil sans le maintenir a deux mains. Le fait d'utiliser cet outil a une main

pourra vous en faire perdre le contr_le. Le fait de traverser une parDi peut poser des risques.

• Utiliser des serre-joints, ou tout autre moyen, pour fixer et immobiliser le mat_riau sur
une surface stable. Tenir la piece a la main ou contre son corps offre une stabi/ite insuffisante

qui pourrait vous en faire perdre le contr_le.

• Maintenir les poign_es propres et s_ches, exempts d'huile ou de graisse. // est
recommande d'utiliser des gants en caoutchouc. Cela offrira une prise plus solide.

• Prendre des precautions a proximit_ des _vents car ils cachent des pi_ces mobiles.
V_tements amples, bijoux ou cheveux longs risquent de rester coinces dans ces pieces mobiles.

• Pour la s_curit_ de liutilisateur, utiliser une rallonge de calibre ad_quat (AWG,

American Wire Gauge [calibrage am_ricain normalis_ des ills _lectriques]). Plus /e

calibre est petit, et plus sa capacite est grande. Un calibre 16, par exemple, a plus de capacite
qu'un calibre 18. L'usage d'une rallonge de calibre insuffisant causera une chute de tension

entra_nantperte de puissance et surchauffe. Si plus d'une rallonge est utilisee pour obtenir une
certaine Iongueur, s'assurer que chaque rallonge presente au moins le calibre de fil minimum.

Le tableau ci-dessous illustre les calibres a utiliser selon la Iongueur de rallonge et I'intensite
nominale indiquee sur la plaque signaletique. En cas de doute, utiliser le calibre suivant. Plus le

calibre est petit, plus la rallonge peut supporter de courant.

I_AVERTISSEMENT : porter SYSTEMATIQUEMENT des lunettes de protection. Les lunettes

courantes NE sont PAS des lunettes de protection. Utiliser aussi un masque.antipoussieres si
la decoupe doit en produire beaucoup. PORTER SYSTEMATIQUEMENT UN EQUIPEMENT DE

SECURITE HOMOLOGUE :

• Protection oculaire ANSI Z87.1 (CAN/CSA Z94.3) ;

• Protection auditive ANSI S 12.6 ($3.19) ;

• Protection des voies respiratoires NIOSH/OSHA/MSHA.

_AVERTISSEMENT : les scies, meules, ponceuses, perceuses ou autres outils de construction
peuvent produire des poussieres contenant des produits chimiques reconnus par I'Etat califomien
pour causer cancers, malformations congenitales ou _tre nocifs au systeme reproducteur. Parmi

ces produits chimiques, on retrouve :

• Le plomb dans les peintures a base de plomb ;

• La silice cristallisee dans les briques et le ciment, ou autres produits de maqonnerie ; et

• L'arsenic et le chrome dans le bois ayant subi un traitement chimique.

Le risque associe a de telles expositions varie selon la frequence a laquelle on effectue ces travaux.

Pour reduire toute exposition aces produits : travailler dans un endroit bien aere, en utilisant du

materiel de securite homologue, tel un masque antipoussieres specialement conqu pour filtrer les
particules microscopiques.

• Limiter toute exposition prolong_e avec les poussi_res provenant du pon_age, sciage,
meulage, perqage ou toute autre activit_ de construction. Porter des v_tements de

protection et nettoyer a I'eau savonneuse les parties du corps expos_es. Le fait de

laisser la poussiere penetrer dans la bouche, les yeux ou la peau peut favoriser I'absorption de

produits chimiques dangereux.
_AVERTISSEMENT : cet outil peut produire et/ou repandre de la poussiere susceptible de
causer des dommages serieux et permanents au systeme respiratoire. Utiliser systematiquement
un appareil de protection des voies respiratoires homologue par le NIOSH ou I'OSHA. Diriger les

particules dans le sens oppose au visage et au corps.

_AVERTISSEMENT : pendant I'utilisation, porter syst_matiquement une protection
auditive individuelle adequate homologu_e ANSI $12.6 ($3.19). Sous certaines conditions

et suivant la duree d'utilisation, le bruit emanant de ce produit pourrait contribuer a une perte de
I'acuite auditive.
