and instructions. Failure to
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.
Work area safety
Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered
or dark areas invite accidents.
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.
Keep children and bystanders away while
operating a power tool. Distractions can cause
you to lose control.
Electrical safety
Power tool plugs must match the outlet.
Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use
2
SM 1619X05057 06-10:1619X05057 06-10 6/1/10 11:00 AM Page 3
any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded)
power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching
outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
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.
Do not expose power tools to rain or wet
conditions. Water entering a power tool will
increase the risk of electric shock.
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.
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 the power tool in damp locations is
unavoidable, use a Ground Fault Circuit
Interrupter (GFCI) protected supply. Use of an
GFCI reduce the risk of electric shock.
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
3
medication. A moment of inattention while
operating power tools may result in serious
personal injury.
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.
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.
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.
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and
balance at all times. This enables better
control of the power tool in unexpected
situations.
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.

SM 1619X05057 06-10:1619X05057 06-10 6/1/10 11:00 AM Page 5
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.
Power tool use and care
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.
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.
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.
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.
Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or
binding of moving parts, breakage of parts
and any other condition that may affect the
5
power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the
power tool repaired before use. Many
accidents are caused by poorly maintained
power tools.
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting
edges are less likely to bind and are easier to
control.
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.
Battery tool use and care
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 terminals together may
cause burns or a fire.

SM 1619X05057 06-10:1619X05057 06-10 6/1/10 11:00 AM Page 7
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.
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.

SAFETY RULES FOR CORDLESS
SCREWDRIVERS
Hold power tool by insulated grippng surfaces,
when performing an operation where the
fastener may contact hidden wiring or its own
cord. Fasteners contacting a "live" wire may make
exposed metal parts of the power tool ”live” and
could give the operator an electric shock.
Use clamps or another practical way to
secure and support the workpiece to a stable
platform. Holding the work by hand or
against your body leaves it unstable and may
lead to loss of control.
Do not drill, fasten or break into existing
walls or other blind areas where electrical
wiring may exist.If this situation is
unavoidable, disconnect all fuses or circuit
breakers feeding this worksite.
Battery tools are always in an operative
condition. Be aware of the possible hazards.
Always wear safety goggles or eye
protection when using this tool.
Secure the workpiece, never hold it in your
hand or across legs. The drilling action may
cause you to lose control of the
workpiece and injury may occur.
When installing a bit, insert the shank of the bit
well within the collet. If the bit is not inserted
10
SM 1619X05057 06-10:1619X05057 06-10 6/1/10 11:00 AM Page 11
deep enough, the grip of the collet over the bit is
reduced and the loss of control is increased.
Do not run the tool while carrying it at your
side. A spinning bit could become entangled
with clothing and injury may result.
Do not use dull or damaged bits and
accessories. Dull or damaged bits have a
greater tendency to bind in the workpiece.
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.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
The Skil model 2350 Cordless Screwdriver/LED
Flashlight has a magnetic bit holder that accepts
any 1/4" hex bit. The low RPM capability of this
model is not a deficiency. On the contrary, low
speed means high torque and high torque is a
definite plus for efficient driving. The low speed
also provides more control to prevent stripout of
the screw and damage to the work surface.
FORWARD/REVERSE BUTTON
This button allows you to change the direction of
rotation of the tool. For clockwise or forward
rotation, push the button that has an arrow
pointing toward the bit. For reverse rotation
push the button that has an arrow pointing away
from the bit. The reverse position will provide
the counterclockwise rotation needed to remove
screws. To stop in either direction just release
the button (Fig. 1).
FLASHLIGHT ON/OFF BUTTON
This button allows you to activate the LED
flashlight.
When operating the LED flashlight, the
screwdriver function is disabled. The LED
flashlight must be in the off position in order to
activate the screwdriver. Conversely, the LED
flashlight will be disabled while operating the
screwdriver. The screwdriver must be in the off
position in order for the LED flashlight to function.

Your tool is also equipped with a light that turns
SITE-LIGHT™
on automatically when the switch is
activated for better visibility during operation
(Fig. 1). The Site-Light™ is maintenance free
and was designed to last the life of your tool.
CHARGING THE TOOL
For Model # F012235000: Plug charger into
your standard power outlet, then insert charger
plug into tool (Fig. 2).
The tools Site-Light™ will slowly blink. This
indicates that the battery is receiving a fast
charge. Fast-charging will automatically stop
when the battery is fully charged.
When the indicator light turns “OFF” fast
charging is complete.
After normal usage, the battery requires
approximately 3 to 6 hours charging time to
reach full capacity.
The purpose of the light is to indicate that the
battery is fast-charging. It does not indicate the
exact point of full charge. The light will turn off
in less than 3-6 hours if the battery was not
completely discharged.
When the battery is fully charged, unplug the
charger (unless you're charging another tool).
When the battery is completely discharged, or
is overheated the tools Site-Light™ will quickly
blink. Allow the tool to return to room
temperature before begining the charging
process.
