General Safety Rules

WARNING! Read and understand all instructions. Failure to follow all
instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious per-
sonal injury.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
WORK AREA
• Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered benches and 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 bystanders, children, and visitors away while operating a power tool. Distractions
can cause you to lose control.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
• Grounded tools must be plugged into an outlet properly installed and grounded in
accordance with all codes and ordinances. Never remove the grounding prong or
modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs. Check with a qualified
electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded. If the tools
should electrically malfunction or break down, grounding provides a low resistance path to
carry electricity away from the user. Applicable only to Class I (grounded) 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
need for the three wire grounded power cord and grounded power supply system. Applicable
only to Class II (double insulated) tools.
• 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.
• Don't 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 to carry the tools or pull the plug from an
outlet. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Replace damaged
cords immediately. Damaged cords increase the risk of electric shock.
• When operating a power tool outside, use an outdoor extension cord marked "W-A" or
"W." These cords are rated for outdoor use and reduce the risk of electric shock. When using
an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw.
An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating.
The following table shows the correct size to use depending on cord length and nameplate
ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gage. The smaller the gage number, the heavier
the cord.

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 clothing, jewelry, or long hair can be
caught in moving parts. Air vents often cover moving parts and should also be avoided.
• Avoid accidental starting. Be sure switch is off before plugging in. Carrying tools with your
finger on the switch or plugging in tools that have the switch on invites accidents.

• Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before turning the tool on. A wrench or 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 footing and
balance enables better control of the tool in unexpected situations.
• Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Dust mask, non-skid safety shoes,
hard hat, or hearing protection must be used for appropriate conditions.
TOOL USE AND CARE
• Use clamps or other practical way 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 tool if switch does not turn it on or off. Any tool that cannot be controlled with
the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
• Disconnect the plug from the power source before making any adjustments, changing
accessories, or storing the tool. Such preventative safety measures reduce the risk of
starting the tool accidentally.
• Store idle tools out of reach of children and other untrained persons. Tools are dangerous
in the hands of untrained users.
• Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained tools,
with sharp cutting edges 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 tools 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 become hazardous when used on another
tool.
SERVICE
• Tool service must be performed only by qualified repair personnel. Service or
maintenance performed by unqualified personnel could result in a risk of injury.
• When servicing a tool, use only identical replacement parts. Follow instructions in the
Maintenance section of this manual. Use of unauthorized parts or failure to follow
Maintenance Instructions may create a risk of electric shock or injury.

Additional Safety Instructions

• Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation where the cut-
ting tools may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Contact with a "live" wire will make
exposed metal parts of the tool "live" and shock the operator.
• Accessories must be rated for at least the speed recommended on the tool warning
label. Wheels and other accessories running over rated speed can fly apart and cause injury.
Accessory ratings must be above listed minimum wheel speed as shown on tool nameplate.
• Wear safety goggles or other eye protection. Hammering and drilling operations cause
chips to fly. Flying particles can cause permanent eye damage.
• Keep handles dry, clean, and free from oil and grease. This will enable better control of the tool.
WARNING: Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other con-
struction activities contains chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproduc-
tive 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 (CCA).
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.

Spade Handle Assembly (Fig. 1)
This spade handle can be attached either horizontally or vertically. Place the handle into the
locating boss on the back of the drill and assemble with holding knob.
Side Handle (Fig. 1)
eliminates the
The side handle can be placed in either side of the drill or the top of the drill according to operator
preference and available working clearance. The spade handle can be temporarily removed if
working clearance at rear of tool is limited. Always replace spade handle when possible.
CAUTION: Always use the side handle and switch handle. This is a high-torque drill. Always
hold it firmly with both hands when operating.
Switch (Fig. 2)
To start the drill, depress the trigger switch; to stop the drill, release the trigger.
A variable speed trigger switch (A) permits speed control—the farther the trigger is depressed,
the higher the speed of the drill.
NOTE: Use lower speeds for starting holes without a center punch, drilling in metal or plastics,
driving screws or drilling ceramics. Higher speeds are better for drilling wood and composition
boards and using abrasive and polishing accessories.
The reversing lever (B) is used for withdrawing bits from tight holes and removing screws. It is
located above the trigger switch. To reverse the motor, release the trigger switch FIRST and then
push the lever to the right. After any reversing operations, return lever to forward position.
The locking feature (C) is for use when the drill is mounted in a drill stand or otherwise firmly
held...NOT BY HAND.
Do not lock the switch "ON" when drilling by hand so that you can instantly release the trigger
switch if the bit binds in the hole.
Be sure to release the switch locking button before disconnecting the plug from the power sup-
ply. Failure to do so will cause the tool to start immediately the next time it is plugged in. Damage
or injury could result.
Chuck
To insert bit, open chuck jaws by turning collar with fingers and insert shank of bit about 3/4"
(19mm) into chuck. Tighten chuck collar by hand. Place chuck key in each of the three holes
and tighten in clockwise direction. It's important to tighten chuck with all three holes.
To release bit, turn chuck key counterclockwise in just one hole, then loosen the chuck by hand.
