Warning! Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury. Save all warnings and instructions for future reference. The term "power tool" in all of the warnings refers to your mains‐operated (corded) power tool or battery‐operated (cordless) power tool. 1) Work area safety a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered and dark areas invite accidents. b) 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. c) Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control. 2) Electrical safety a) Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock b) 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. c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock. d) 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. e) 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. 3) Personal safety a) 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 medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury. ...

4) Power tool use and care a) 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. b) 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. c) 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. d) 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. e) Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the power tools operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools. f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control. g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in accordance with these instructions and in the manner intended for the particular type of power tool, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed. h) Use of the power tool for operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation. 5) Service a) 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. b) If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard. ...

Over Current Protection Should the battery be overloaded and the maximum current draw be exceeded the battery will temporarily stop working to protect the internal components. The battery will resume to normal operation once the excessive current draw has returned to normal safe level. This may take a few seconds. Short Circuit Protection If the battery pack was to short circuit the short circuit protector would immediately stop the battery pack from operating. This will ensure that no further internal components of the battery or the tools are damaged. The drill has been shipped in a low charge condition, and requires charging prior to use. • Plug the charger (9) into a 120V power outlet.

Thermal voltage protection indication In the event that the thermal or voltage protection circuit has been activated the battery will cease to operate. This can happen when the tool has been used for extended periods or worked hard with large drill bits or accessories. If you place the battery on the charger the LED lights will give you the appearance that the battery is fully charged. Leave the battery on the charger to charge for 90 minutes. The battery may take the full 90 minutes to charge as the battery may need to cool down or the protection circuit to be reset. This will then allow the charger to begin charging the battery and resume normal operation. Always switch off the drill before insertion or removal of the battery (5). Installing the Battery • Holding the drill upright and picking up the battery (5) in your opposite hand. Place two fingers over the battery release buttons (6) and insert the battery (5) until it clicks into place (See Fig. 2). • Do not use excessive force when inserting the battery (5). If the battery (5) does not slide in easily, it is not being inserted correctly. It is also possible that there could be damage to the battery (5), battery terminals or the drill. Removing the Battery Depress both the battery release buttons (6) and gently pull the battery (5) out of the drill. Battery The length of service from each charging cycle will depend on the type of work you are doing. The battery (5) in this drill have been designed to provide maximum trouble free life. To obtain the longest possible battery life, we suggest the following: • Store and charge your battery (5) in a cool area. Temperatures above or below normal room temperature will shorten battery life. • Never store batteries in a discharged condition. Recharge them immediately after they are discharged. • All batteries gradually lose their charge. The higher the temperature the quicker they lose their charge. If you store your drill for long periods of time without using it, recharge the batteries every month or two. This practice will prolong battery life. ...

Changing the Direction of Rotation The direction of rotation can be changed with the forward/reverse selector (4). This is located above the variable speed switch (7) (see Fig. 4). To select the forward drilling position, push the forward/reverse selector (4) hard left. To select the reverse drilling position, push the forward/reverse selector (4) hard right. The variable speed switch (7) can be locked off by pushing the forward/reverse selector (4) into the middle of both the forward and reverse positions. Do not change the direction of rotation while the keyless chuck (1) is in motion. Speed Control The drill has a 2 speed gearbox. The speed selector (3) is located on the top of the drill (see Fig. 5). First gear has a range of 0‐350/min. Second gear has a range of 0‐1150/min. Torque Settings (Tightening power of your drill) When using your drill for various driving applications, it becomes necessary to increase and decrease the power and torque in order to prevent the possibility of damaging screw heads, threads, work pieces, etc. In general, power and torque should correspond to the difficulty of the screw to be driven. If torque is too high, the screws can be damaged or broken. To Adjust Torque • Locate the arrow on the front of the drill housing (see Fig. 6). • Identify the torque settings and 1 drill setting on the torque adjustment collar (2). • Rotate the torque adjustment collar (2) to the desired setting, aligning the required number on the torque adjustment collar (2) with the arrow on the drill housing. • To increase or decrease torque, rotate the torque adjustment collar (2). The lower the number, the lower the torque setting. The higher the number, the higher the torque setting. Always check that the correct torque is selected by practicing on scrap material prior to carrying out a job. The torque setting required to drive screws will differ with different materials. Start with the torque setting on the number you think is appropriate (Eg: 4) and simply increase the torque adjustment collar to a higher number if the screw ...
