CAUTION
This is a very powerful Drill. When using this drill it is essential that the following rules for use are followed!
1. When drilling it is common that the core / drill bit jams in the material being drilled. This will result in the drill trying to rotate around the drill bit and potentially come out of your grip. This SDS Drill has a safety clutch mechanism. This safety clutch mechanism will be activated and stop the drive to the drill bit BUT only if you resist the initial forces caused by the jamming by securely holding the drill with both hands. As this is a very powerful drill these forces are significant.
2. ALWAYS ensure that the front handle is firmly affixed and secure.
3. The Front and rear handle must be firmly held to resist any movement of the drill when the core drill or drill bit becomes jammed.
4. ALWAYS use this drill when standing on a firm and secure platform or the ground. (DO NOT USE ON LADDERS OR STEPS)
5. NEVER Start the Drill with the core or drill jammed in position.
6. DO NOT stretch to hold the drill. Do not drill above shoulder height or below Knee height, as the drill cannot be securely held.
7. Never drill holes that are above the declared maximum size in the manual.
8. This drill is not designed for core drilling above the maximum drilling capacity in masonry.

GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS
Warning: 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 electric (corded) power tool or battery­operated (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 residual current device (RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD 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.
Page 6
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 burns 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 burns.
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.

ADDITIONAL SAFETY WARNING FOR CONSTRUCTION DUST
The updated Control of Substances Hazardous to Health Regulations 1st October 2012 now also targets to reduce the risks associated with silica, wood and gypsum dusts. Construction workers are one of the at-risk groups within this because of the dust that they breathe: silica dust is not just a nuisance; it is a real risk to your lungs!
Silica is a natural mineral present in large amounts in things like sand, sandstone and granite. It is also commonly found in many construction materials such as concrete and mortar. The silica is broken into very fine dust (also known as Respirable Crystalline Silica or RCS) during many common tasks such as cutting, drilling and grinding Breathing in very fine particles of crystalline silica can lead to the development of: Lung cancer Silicosis Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disorder (Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD))
And breathing in fine particles of wood dust can lead to the development of Asthma
The risk of lung disease is linked to people who regularly breathe construction dust over a period of time, not on the odd occasion. To protect the lung, the COSHH Regulations sets a limit on the amount of these dusts that you can breathe (called a Workplace Exposure Limit or WEL) when averaged over a normal working day. These limits are not a large amount of dust: when compared to a penny it is tiny – like a small pinch of salt: This limit is the legal maximum; the most you can breathe after the right controls have been used.
How to reduce the amount of dust?
1. Reduce the amount of cutting by using the best sizes of building products.
2. Use a less powerful tool e.g. a block cutter instead of angle grinder.
3. Using a different method of work altogether – e.g. using a nail gun to direct fasten cable
trays instead of drilling holes first.
Please always work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that specially designed to filter out microscopic particles and use the dust extraction facility at all time. For more information please see the HSE website: http://www.hse.gov.uk/construction or http://www.hse.gov.uk/pubns/cis69.pdf
Warning: Some dust particles created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drill and other construction jobs contain 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.
• Arsenic and chromium from chemically treated timber.
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending upon how often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals:
Page 10
• Work in a well-ventilated area.
• Work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed
to filter microscopic particles.
VIBRATION
The European Physical Agents (Vibration) Directive has been brought in to help reduce hand arm vibration syndrome injuries to power tool users. The directive requires power tool manufacturers and suppliers to provide indicative vibration test results to enable users to make informed decisions as to the period of time a power tool can be used safely on a daily basis and the choice of tool. Further Advice can be found at www.hse.gov.uk
Vibration total values (triax cover sum) determined according to EN60745:
Hammer drilling into concrete
Vibration emission value α
h,HD
=11.27m/s
2
Uncertainty K = 1.5m/s²
Chiselling
α
h,CHeq
=10.25m/s²
Uncertainty K=1.5m/s²
The declared vibration emission value should be used as a minimum level and should be used with the current guidance on vibration. Calculating the actual period of the actual period off use can be difficult and the HSE website has further information.
The declared vibration emission been measured in accordance with a standardised test stated above and may be used to compare one tool with another tool. The declared vibration emission value may also be used in a preliminary assessment of exposure.
Warning: The vibration emission value during actual use of the power tool can differ
from the declared value depending on the ways in which the tool is used dependant on the following examples and other variations on how the tool is used: How the tool is used and the materials being cut or drilled. The tool being in good condition and well maintained The use the correct accessory for the tool and ensuring it is sharp and in good condition. The tightness of the grip on the handles. And the tool is being used as intended by its design and these instructions.
While working with this power tool, hand/arm vibrations occur. Adopt the correct working practices in order to reduce the exposure to vibration.
This tool may cause hand-arm vibration syndrome if its use is not adequately managed.
Page 11
36V SDS DRILL ERT576SDS
Warning: Identify safety measures to protect the operator that are based on an esti-
mation of exposure in the actual conditions of use (taking account of all parts of the operating cycle such as the times when the tool is switched off and when it is running idle in addition to the trigger time).Note The use of other tools will reduce the users’ total working period on this tool. Helping to minimise your vibration exposure risk. ALWAYS use sharp chisels, drills and blades Maintain this tool in accordance with these instructions and keep well lubricated (where appropriate) Avoid using tools in temperatures of 10ºC or less Plan your work schedule to spread any high vibration tool use across a number of days.
Health surveillance
All employees should be part of an employer’s health surveillance scheme to help identity any vibration related diseases at an early stage, prevent disease progression and help employees stay in work.
Double insulation
The charger is double insulated. This means that all the external metal parts are electrically insulated from the mains power supply. This is done by placing insulation barriers between the electrical and mechanical components making it unnecessary for the tool to be earthed.

may be actuated only at a standstill.
HANDY HINTS
General
1. Your cordless drill is useful for drilling holes on concrete.
2. To prolong the life of your drill never overload it; if it slows down while drilling, remove and try again using less force on the drill. If the drill is straining because the battery pack charge is low, stop and recharge the battery pack.
3. Always use only a soft, dry cloth to clean your drill; never use any detergent or alcohol. Disconnect the charger from the mains supply before cleaning.
Hole drilling
1. When attempting to drill a large diameter hole, it is sometimes best to start with a smaller drill bit then work up to the required size. This prevents overloading the drill.
2. If the drill bit snags, switch off the drill immediately to prevent permanent damage. Try the reverse drive to remove the bit.
3. Keep the drill in line with the hole. Ideally, if the angle is changed during drilling it could cause the bit to break.
4. Frequently remove the drill bit from the hole when drilling deep holes to allow the dust to be ejected from the hole.
Page 20
POSSIBLE PROBLEMS AND SOLUTIONS
Should you encounter any problems when using your cordless drill, check the following list.
1. On/Off switch will not depress
The switch will not depress if the forward and reverse rotation selector is in the locked position. Move to the forward or reverse position and try again.
2. On/Off switch depresses but drill will not work
The cordless drill needs sufficient charge in the battery pack to work. The battery charge will deplete if not used for a long period of time. Try recharging the battery pack.
3. The drill body gets hot following extensive use
Under normal load condition the body, trigger and battery pack will heat up as the energy absorbed in the drilling operation produces heat. This is quite normal. Simply allow the drill to cool off for a few minutes.
4. The battery pack gets warm during use
The power-draw from the battery generates heat. This is increased as the energy draw increases. The LED will flash when the battery is getting extremely hot. Should you desire to cool it down, simply allow the drill to cool off prior to continuing work.
5. The battery pack gets warm when charging
This is normal; it is a result from the stepping down of the chemical reactions inside the batteries during the charging process.
6. The charger will get warm during charging
This is normal; it is a result of the stepping down of the main supply from 110-240Vac to 36Vdc.
7. HOT battery pack protection
The normal charging temperature is between 0
o
C
and 45
o
C. When the allowable battery temperature
of 45
o
C is exceeded, charging will suspend until it has reached the correct temperature. The normal discharging/working temperature is between 0
o
C
and 75
o
C. When the allowable battery temperature
of 75
o
C is exceeded, the electronic control switches off the power tool until the temperature is in the optimum temperature range again.
