Battery charging
IMPORTANT. Before attempting to charge the battery, check the charger and the battery to ensure the charging equipment
matches the battery supplied. The components are all labelled with component numbers.
IMPORTANT. The battery will be fully charged after 3-5 hours, remove it from the charger after this time. Do not
leave a battery charging for longer than 24 hours.
Note: It is suggested to remove the battery from the drill for the charging process. Do not attempt to use the drill while the
charger is connected to the battery.
1. To commence charging, plug in the adaptor from the plug pack charger (10) into the back of the battery and insert firmly
into place.
2. Plug in the plug pack charger and switch on at the power supply. The green LED indicator located on the
back of the battery will indicate that the battery is being charged. The red light on the back of the battery indicates the
battery is connected to the turned on charger.
During the charging process the Red and the Green lights are on. When the battery is fully charged the red
light remains on while the green light turns off.
3. The battery charging time is approximately 3-5 hours.
4. When the battery is fully charged turn off the plug pack charger power supply from the mains and remove the charger
plug from the battery.
Both the battery pack and the charger may become warm to touch. This is also normal and not an issue of concern. Both the
battery pack and plug pack charger are fitted with thermal safety devices and they will shut down if the temperatures
become too high.
To obtain the best life for the battery
Never allow the drill to come to a complete stand still before recharging. The battery should be placed on
charge whenever the battery is noticeably running down or the drill no longer performs a task it previously
performed.
Avoid allowing loose items like screws or nails etc. to be stored with battery packs as these or similar items can
short battery packs and cause a fire or explosion.
Always unplug the plug pack charger when not in use and store in a dry secure place.
Avoid charging or storing your battery in temperatures below 0ºC and above 40ºC.
Battery indicator
Press the trigger switch fully so the motor is running at no load full speed, press the indicator button and refer
to the LED lights. The LED lights indicate the level of charge remaining in the battery.
2 Speed gearbox
The 2 Speed Gearbox allows you to select a gear with the optimum speed and torque to suit the application.
Note. When changing the drill selector ensures the drill is not operating.
To select the LOW gear (low speed, high torque setting), push the gear selector backward, towards the back of
the drill. The symbol "I" will be displayed.
To select the HIGH gear (high speed, low torque setting), push the gear selector forward, towards the chuck.
The symbol "II" will be displayed.
Using the drill
Trigger switch
Use the forward/reverse switch to select the direction of rotation, then pull the trigger.
This trigger switch is an electronic variable speed control which enables the user to vary the speed
continuously. The speed varies according to how far the trigger switch is depressed. The further it is
depressed the faster the chuck will rotate and the lighter it is depressed, the slower it will rotate.
To stop the drill, release the trigger switch.
Note. The variable Speed control fitted to this drill is NOT intended to be used for long periods of time during
the operation of the task being performed. Use the variable speed to start drilling and screwing tasks, and then
fully depress the trigger once the task has started.
CAUTION. Extended use of the variable speed under load will overload and then permanently damage the
speed control.
