proper circuit protection.

The drill is wired at the factory for 120 V operation. It must be connected to a 120 V,

ALWAYS WEAR EYE PROTECTION THAT CONFORMS WITH CSA

REQUIREMENTS or ANSI SAFETY STANDARD Z87.1

FLYING DEBRIS can cause permanent eye damage. Prescription

eyeglasses ARE NOT a replacement for proper eye protection.

WARNING: Non-compliant eyewear can cause serious injury if broken

during operation of a power tool.

GENERAL SAFETY RULES

WARNING: Read and understand

all instructions. Failure to follow all

instructions listed below may result in
electric shock, fire and/or serious personal
injury.

WORK AREA

Keep your work area clean and well lit.

Cluttered benches and dark areas invite
accidents.

Do not operate power tools in explosive
atmospheres, such as in the presence of
flammable liquids, gas or dust. Power

tools create sparks which may ignite the
dust or fumes.

Keep bystanders, children and visitors
away whil

e operating the tool.

Distractions can cause you to lose control.

!

ELECTRICAL SAFETY

Double insulated tools are equipped
with a polarized plug (one blade is wider
than the other). This plug will fit in a
polarized plug only one way. If the plug
does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse
the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a
qualified electrician to install a polarized
outlet. Do not change the plug in any
way. Double insulation eliminates the need

for the three

-

and grounded power supply system.

Avoid body contact with grounded
surfaces such as pipes, radiators,
ranges and refrigerators. There is

increased risk of electric shock if

your body

is grounded.

Don’t expose power tools to rain or wet
conditions. Water entering the power tool

will increase the risk of electric shock.

prong grounded power cord

4

Do not abuse the cord. Never use the
cord to carry the tools or pull the plug from
an outlet. Keep cord away from heat, oil,
sharp edges or moving parts. Replace
damaged cords immediately. Damaged

cords increase the risk of electric shock.

When operating a power tool outside,
use an outdoor extension cord marked
“W-A” or “W”. These cords are rated for

outdoor use and reduce the risk of electric
shock.

PERSONAL SAFETY

Stay alert, watch what you are doing and
use common sense

when operat

ing a
power tool. Do not use the tool while
tired or under the influence of drugs,
alcohol or medication. A moment of

inattention while operating power tools may
result in serious personal injury.

Dress properly. Do not wear loose
clothing or jewelry.

Contain long hair. Keep your hair,
clothing and gloves away from moving
parts. Loose clothing, jewelry or long hair

can be caught in moving parts.

Avoid accidental starting. Be sure
switch is OFF before plugging in.

Carrying tools with your finger on the switch
or

plugging in tools that have the switch

turned ON invites accidents.

Remove adjusting keys or wrenches
before turning the tool ON. A wrench or

key that is left attached to a rotating part of
the tool may result in personal injury.

POWER TOOL SAFETY

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS FOR REFERENCE

Do not overreach. Keep proper footing
and balance at all times. Proper footing

and balance enables better control of the
tool in unexpected situations.

Use safety equipment. Always wear eye
protection. Dust mask, non-skid safety

shoes, hard hat or hearing protection must
be used under applicable conditions.

TOOL USE AND CARE

Use clamps or other practical method to
secure and support the workpiece on a
stable platform. Holding the work by hand

or against

your body is unsafe and may

lead to loss of control.

Do not force the tool. Use the correct
tool for your application. The correct tool

will do the job better and safer at the rate
for which it is designed.

Do not use the tool if the switch does
not turn it ON or OFF. Any tool that cannot

be controlled with the switch is dangerous
and must be repaired.

Disconnect the plug from the power
source before making any adjustments,
changing accessories or storing the
tool. Such preventive safety measures

r

educe the risk of starting the tool

accidentally.

Store idle tools out of reach of children
and other untrained persons. Tools are

dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting
tools sharp and clean. Properly

maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting
edges are less likely to bind and are easier
to control.

5

Check for misalignment or binding of
moving parts, breakage of parts and any
other condition that may affect the tool’s
operation. If damaged, have the tool
serviced before using. Many accidents

are caused by poorly maintained tools.

Use only accessories that are
recommended by the manufacturer for
your model. Accessories that may be

suitable for one tool may become
hazardous when used on another tool.

SERVICE

Tool service must be performed only by
qualified personnel. Service or

maintenance performed by unqua

lified

personnel could result in risk of injury.

When servicing a tool, use only identical
replacement parts. Follow instructions
in the Maintenance section of this
manual. Use of unauthorized parts or

failure to follow Maintenance instructions
may create a risk of electric shock or injury.

WARNING: For your safety, do not

plug in your drill until you have carefully
read and understood this Owner’s
Manual.

ALWAYS WEAR EYE PROTECTION
THAT CONFORMS WITH CSA
REQUIREMENTS or ANSI SAFETY
STANDARD Z87.1

FLYING DEBRIS can cause
permanent eye damage.
Prescription eyeglasses ARE
NOT a replacement for proper
eye protection.

Do not install or use any drill bit that
exceeds 7” (175 mm) in length or extends

more than 6” (150 mm) beyond the chuck
jaws. They can bend or break suddenly.

Before starting the op

eration, jog the

drill switch to make sure the drill bit does

not wobble or vibrate.

Do not use fly cutters or multiple-part
hole cutters, as they can come apart or

become unbalanced in use.

Make sure the spindle has come to a
complete stop before touching the chuck

or attempting to change the drill bit.

SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES

!

Do not wear gloves, neckties or loose
clothing.

Do not drill material too small to be
securely held.

Always keep hands out of the path of
the drill bit. Avoid awkward hand positions

where a sudden slip could cause your hand
to move into the path of the drill bit.

Secure workpiece. Use clamps or a vice
to hold the workpiece. It is safer than using
your hand and it frees both hands to
operate the tool.

Make sure there are no nails or foreign
objects in the part of the workpiece to be

drilled.

To avoid injury fr

om accidental starting,

always remove the battery from the tool
before installing or removing a drill bit.
