Page 3: Electrical Safety
ELECTRICAL SAFETY Power tool plugs must match the outlet • . Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adaptor plugs in any earthed (grounded) power tools. Double insulated tools are equipped with a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). This plug will fit in a polarized outlet 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 wire grounded power cord and grounded power supply system. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions • . Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock. Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes, •... -

. When cleaning a tool, be careful not to disassemble any portion of the tool since internal wires may be misplaced or pinched. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS EXTENSION COrDS Grounded tools require a three wire extension cord Double insulated tools can use either a two or three wire extension cord. As the distance from the power supply outlet increases, you must use a heavier gauge extension cord. using extension cords with inadequately sized wire causes a serious drop in voltage, resulting in loss of power and possible tool damage. Refer to the table shown below to determine the required minimum wire size. The smaller the gauge number of the wire, the greater the capacity of the cord. for example: a 14-gauge cord can carry a higher current than a 16-gauge cord. When using more than one extension cord to make up the total length, be sure each cord contains at least the minimum wire size required. If you are using one extension cord for more than one tool, add the nameplate amperes and use the sum to determine the required minimum wire size. Guidelines for Using Extension Cords • If you are using an extension cord outdoors, be sure it is marked with the suffix “W-A” (“W” in Canada) to indicate that it is acceptable for outdoor use. 1/2" Spade-Handle Electric Drill Operator’s Manual GSHD1290... - Page 5 • Be sure your extension cord is properly wired and in good electrical condition. Always replace a damaged extension cord or have it repaired by a qualified person before using it. • Protect your extension cords from sharp objects, excessive heat, and damp or wet areas.

OPErATION WArNING: Always check that the power supply corresponds to the voltage on the rating name plate. WArNING: Always be sure that the tool is switched off and unplugged before adjusting, adding accessories, or checking a function on the tool. TRIGGER SWITCH Your tool is equipped with a variable speed trigger switch (3-fIG1). The tool speed is controlled by the amount of pressure you apply to the switch. By slowly increasing the pressure on the switch, tool speed will gradually... -
Page 10: Installing And Removing Bits
Loose work may spin and cause bodily injury. 4. Locate the exact center for the hole to be drilled and using a center punch, make a small dent in the work. This will keep the drill bit from “wandering” when the bit begins rotating. 5. Place the tip of the drill bit in the indentation made by the punch, hold drill square with the work, and start the drill. Apply steady, even pressure to keep the drill bit cutting. Too little pressure will prevent the bit from cutting and dull the edges due to excessive friction created by sliding over the surface. Release the switch immediately if the drill stalls or becomes jammed in the hole. Then remove the drill bit from the work and determine the cause of stalling or jamming. Do not attempt to free a stalled or jammed bit by squeezing the swtich on and off to jog the bit loose, this will damage the motor. use the forward/reverse lever to change rotation to counterclockwise and attempt to back out the jammed bit. Be sure to reset the direction of rotation before attempting to continue drilling. WArNING: BE ALErT and brace yourself against the twisting action of the drill, should the drill jam in the work. 1/2" Spade-Handle Electric Drill Operator’s Manual GSHD1290... -

6. Just before the bit penetrates the back side of the workpiece, reduce splintering in wood and jamming in metal by reducing pressure on the drill. 7. When the bit completely penetrates the work and is spinning freely, withdraw it from the workpiece with the drill motor still running and then turn off the drill. DRILLING IN WOOD, COMPOSITE MATERIALS AND PLASTICS Although most “twist” drill bits are designed for drilling into metal, they are the most common bit used for boring holes in wood, wood composites and plastics. There are many types of drill bits available that may be more appropriate or designed specifically for boring the type of hole you desire. Additional drill bits to choose from include: spade bits, brad bits, self-feed bits, hole saws, circle cutters, multi-spur bits and fastener bits, to name just a few! Woodworking publications and tool supply store personnel are good sources to help you select the drill bit that best satisfies your needs. • With the tool unplugged, install the appropriate bit into the chuck and tighten the chuck. • Place the forward/reverse switch in the forward position. • Mark the location(s) on work piece where the holes are to be drilled. • Secure the workpiece with clamps or other means. • Wear safety goggles or safety glasses with side shields. Wear a dust mask or respirator to prevent inhalation of wood dust. To Drill the Hole • Plug the tool into the power source. • Place tip of the drill bit on the workpiece where the hole is being drilled. • Apply downward pressure and slowly depress the switch. • When using a twist drill, withdraw the bit from the hole frequently to clear built up wood chips from the flutes. Clearing the flutes avoids overheating the bit and burning the wood. -
