IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

People with electronic devices, such as pacemakers, should consult their physician(s) before using this product. Operation of electrical equipment in close proximity to a heart pacemaker could cause interference or failure of the pacemaker.

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. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work with approved safety equipment, such as dust masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.

WARNING: Handling the power cord on corded products may expose you to lead, a chemical known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm.

Wash hands after handling.

WORK AREA

Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered work benches and dark work

areas may cause accidents or injury.

Do not operate power tools in explosive areas, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite

the dust or fumes.

Keep bystanders, children and visitors away while operating a power tool.

Distractions can cause you to lose control.

ELECTRICAL SAFETY

Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord to carry the tool, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep the cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges, or moving parts. Replace damaged cords immediately. Damaged cords may create

a fire.

Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock. A battery operated tool with integral batteries or a separate battery pack

must be recharged only with the specified charger for the battery. A charger

that may be suitable for one type of battery may create a risk of fire when used with another battery.

Use battery operated tool only with specifically designated battery pack. Use of any other batteries may create risk of fire.

Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with grounded power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.

Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is

grounded. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power

tool will increase the risk of electric shock.

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.

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.

Use power tools only with specifically designated battery packs. Use of any other battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire.

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 termi-

nals together may cause burns or a fire.

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.

Store idle tools out of reach of children and other untrained persons. Tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

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 termi-

nals together may cause sparks, burns or a fire. Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained

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

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 create a risk of injury

when used on another tool.

SERVICE

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

or maintenance by unqualified personnel may result in a risk of injury.

When servicing a tool, use only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained. Follow instructions in the

Maintenance section of this manual. Use of unauthorized parts or failure to follow Maintenance Instructions may create a risk of shock or injury.

PERSONAL SAFETY

Stay alert, watch what you are doing, and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use 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 clothes,

jewelry or long hair can be caught in moving parts.

Avoid accidental starting. Be sure switch is in the locked or “OFF”position before inserting battery pack. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or insert- ing battery pack into a tool with the power switch “ON” invites accidents.

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

key that is left attached to a rotating part of the tool may result in personal injury. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Proper foot-

ing and balance enable better control of the tool in unexpected situations. Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Dust mask, non-skid safe-

ty shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection must be used for appropriate conditions.

If 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.

TOOL USE AND CARE

Use clamps or other practical ways 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. Do not force 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 power switch does not turn it “ON” or “OFF”. A tool

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

Disconnect battery pack from tool or place the switch in the locked or “OFF” position before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing the tool. Such preventative safety measures reduce the risk of starting the tool

accidentally.

SCREWDRIVING

WHEN DRIVING FASTENERS:

• Always start slowly and gradually increase the speed of the Drill.

• Release the trigger when you feel the clutch slip.

• Always keep the driver bit straight to prevent damage to the screw.

• Hold the Drill with both hands to ensure control if the bit should stick or slip.

• To prevent wood from splitting, drill pilot holes into the wood before driving in the screws.

DRILLING METAL

WHEN DRILLING HARD METALS:

• Apply a lubricant, such as cutting oil, to the tip of the bit.

• Start with a small hole then enlarge to the required size. Make sure the bit is actually cutting and not spinning in the hole as this will dull the edges of the bit.

• Keep enough pressure on the bit to keep it drilling through the material.

DRILLING MASONRY

WHEN DRILLING MASONRY:

• Masonry can be brittle so be careful not to apply too much pressure and crack the material.

• Apply enough pressure to keep the bit cutting and not spinning in the hole as this will dull the edges of the bit.

• Bricks and similar soft materials will require less pressure, concrete will require much more.

DRILLING WOOD

Use twist bits to drill holes in wood. Make sure the bits are sharp. Pull the bits out of the hole frequently to clear chips from the flutes as an overburdened bit may overheat.

HINTS FOR OPTIMUM USE

DRILLING:

• Keep the right amount of pressure in a straight line with the drill bit. Too little and the bit will spin without cutting, too much and the motor may stall.

TORQUE SETTINGS

To prevent damaging the tool or driving screw too deep

into work piece, release the trigger when you feel the clutch slip.

THE CONTROL RING ADJUSTS THE LEVEL OF TORQUE:

• For light duty work, use lower settings.

• For heavy duty work, use higher settings.

PROPER SETTING FOR DRIVING SCREWS:

1. Set the ring on the lowest setting to begin.

2. Try tightening the first screw. If the drill drives smoothly, proceed with the next screw.

3. If the Drill’s clutch slips, increase the torque setting and try again until the Drill drives the screw without incident.

HIGH/LOW SPEED (GEAR) SHIFTING

FOR LOW SPEED SETTING:

• Slide the switch on top of the

Drill to Position 1 for high torque applications and driving screws.

FOR HIGH SPEED SETTING:

• Slide the switch to Position 2

for light duty projects.

CONTROL RING

HIGH SPEEDLOW SPEED

Regularly clean the ventilation slots in your tool and charger using only a soft brush or dry cloth.

Never open the Cordless Drill case, battery pack or charger. Do not attempt to

repair the Cordless Drill, battery pack or charger yourself. Opening any of these parts will void your warranty.

ACCESSORIES

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.

Always attach grounded (3-prong) extension cords to grounded (3-hole) outlets. If you must use an extension cord, be sure that the gauge is large enough to carry

the amount of current necessary for your power tool. If not, your tool may experi-

ence a loss of power, excessive voltage drop or overheating. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord (see table on next page).

• Just before the drill tip breaks though the other side of the work piece drill more slowly and decrease pressure on the tool. This will prevent stalling and leave a cleaner hole.

• Use a block of wood to back up work pieces that may splinter.

• Use spade bits when drilling large diameter holes in wood.

• Use HSS drill bits when drilling in metal.

• Use masonry bits when drilling in soft masonry.

• Use a lubricant when drilling metals other than cast iron, aluminum, copper, and brass.

• When drilling, start the hole slowly, allowing the bit to drill deep enough to prevent slipping at higher speeds.

• Never try to start a stalled Drill by clicking the trigger switch “ON” and “OFF”. This may damage your tool.

• To reduce jamming, always keep the Drill running when pulling the bit out of a finished hole.

SCREWDRIVING:

• Always use the correct type and size of screwdriver bit.

• If screws are difficult to tighten, try applying a small amount of washing liquid or soap as a lubricant.

• Always hold the tool and screwdriver bit in a straight line with the screw.
