Safety Warnings and Instructions: Charging the Drill
1. This manual contains important safety and operating instructions.
2. Before using battery charger, read all instructions and cautionary markings on (1) battery charger, (2)
battery, and (3) product using battery.
3.
CAUTION: To reduce the risk of injury, charge only Black & Decker Power Packs. Other types of
batteries may burst causing personal injury and damage.
4. Do not expose charger to rain or snow.
5. Use of an attachment not recommended or sold by Black & Decker may result in a risk of fire, electric
shock, or injury to persons.
6. To reduce risk of damage to electric plug and cord, pull by plug rather than cord when disconnecting
charger.
7. Make sure cord is located so that it will not be stepped on, tripped over, or otherwise subjected to
damage or stress.
8. An extension cord should not be used unless absolutely necessary. Use of improper extension cord
could result in a risk of fire, electric shock or electrocution.
a. Two-wire cords can be used with 2-wire or 3-wire extension cords. Only round jacketed extension
cords should be used, and we recommend that they be listed by Underwriters Laboratories (U.L.). If the
extension is to be used outside, the cord must be suitable for outdoor use. Any cord marked for outdoor
use can also be used for indoor work. The letters “W” or “WA” on the cord jacket indicate that the cord
is suitable for outdoor use.
b. An extension cord must have adequate wire size (AWG or American Wire Gauge) for safety, and to
prevent loss of power and overheating. The smaller the gauge number of the wire, the greater the
capacity of the cable; that is, 16 gauge has more capacity than 18 gauge. When using more than one
extension to make up the total length, be sure each extension contains at least the minimum wire size.

• Use only the supplied charger when charging your drill. The use of any other charger could damage the
drill or create a hazardous condition.
• Use only one charger when charging.
• Do not attempt to open the charger or the drill. There are no customer serviceable parts inside. Return to
any authorized Black & Decker service center.
• DO NOT incinerate the drill or battery packs even if they are severely damaged or completely worn out.
The batteries can explode in a fire.
• Do not incinerate the batteries. They can explode in a fire. A small leakage of liquid from the battery cells
may occur under extreme usage, charging or temperature conditions. This does not indicate a failure.
However, if the outer seal is broken and this leakage gets on your skin:
a. Wash quickly with soap and water.
b. Neutralize with a mild acid such as lemon juice or vinegar.
c. If the battery liquid gets in your eyes, flush them with clean water for a minimum of 10 minutes and seek
immediate medical attention. MEDICAL NOTE: The liquid is a 25-35% solution of potassium hydroxide.

Safety Warnings and instructions: Drills
• When drilling or driving into walls, floors or wherever live electrical wires may be encountered, DO
NOT TOUCH ANY METAL PARTS OF THE TOOL! Hold the tool only by the plastic handle to prevent
shock.
• Do not lock the tool ON when drilling by hand. Refer to Operating Instructions-Switch.
• Hold drill firmly to control the twisting action of the drill.
• When attaching accessories in the drill chuck, hand tighten the keyless chuck firmly.
WARNING:
Drill may stall (if overloaded or improperly used) causing a twist. Always expect the stall.
Grip the drill firmly to control the twisting action and prevent loss of control which could
cause personal injury. If a stall does occur, release the trigger immediately and
determine the reason for the stall before re-starting.

Charging the Power Pack
THE BATTERIES IN YOUR POWER PACK ARE NOT FULLY CHARGED AT THE FACTORY. BEFORE
ATTEMPTING TO CHARGE THEM, THOROUGHLY READ ALL OF THE SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS.
The drills covered in this instruction manual use the same charger.
The 3 hour charger is designed to use standard household 120 volt 60 Hz power.
1. Put the switch control lever in the center OFF position (Fig. 1) and remove the power pack from the
tool (Fig. 2).
2. Plug the charger into any standard 120 Volts 60 Hz electrical outlet.
3. Insert the power pack into the charger (Fig. 3) and let it charge for 3 hours.
4. Remove pack from the charger and replace in tool.
Important Charging Notes
1. After normal usage, your power pack should be fully charged in
3 hours or less. If the power pack is run-down completely, it may take up to 8 hours to become fully
charged. Your power pack was sent from the factory in an uncharged condition. Before attempting to
use it, it must be charged for at least 3 hours.
2. DO NOT charge the power pack in an air temperature below 40°F or above 105°F. This is important
and will prevent serious damage to the power pack. Longest life and best performance can be
obtained if the power pack is charged when the air temperature is about 75°F.
3. While charging, the charger may hum and become warm to touch. This is a normal condition and
does not indicate a problem.
4. If the power pack does not charge properly—(1) Check current at receptacle by plugging in a lamp
or other appliance. (2) Check to see if receptacle is connected to a light switch which turns power off
when you turn out the lights. (3) Move charger and power pack to a surrounding air temperature of
40°F to 105°F. (4) If the receptacle and temperature are OK, and you do not get proper charging,
take or send the power pack and charger to your local Black & Decker service center. See “Tools
Electric” in yellow pages.
5. The power pack should be recharged when it fails to produce sufficient power on jobs which were
easily done previously. DO NOT CONTINUE to use the drill with its power pack in a depleted condi-
tion.
6. To prolong power pack life, avoid leaving the power pack on charge for more than 8 hours. Although
overcharging is not a safety concern, it can significantly reduce overall power pack life.
