Electrical Safety 1. 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. 2. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock. 3. Do not abuse the Charger’s power cord. Never use the Power Cord to carry the Charger or pull the Plug from an outlet. Keep the Power Cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges, or

4. Remove the battery from the tool and set the Rotation Button (6) to the cen- ter, locked position, before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing the tool. These preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally. 5. Store idle tools out of reach of children and other untrained persons. Tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users. 6. Maintain the Cordless Drill/Driver with care. Keep drill bits sharp and clean. Properly maintained acc

4. Hold the tool by its insulated gripping surfaces when performing an opera- tion where the Cordless Drill/Driver may contact hidden wiring. Contact with a “live” wire will make exposed metal parts of the Cordless Drill/Driver “live” and shock the operator. 5. Do not use the Cordless Drill/Driver or Charger if it has been dropped, dam- aged, left outdoors, or immersed in liquid. 6. To avoid electric shock, do not pull or carry the Charger by its Power Cord or pull the Power Cord around shar

GROUNDING WARNING! Improperly connecting the grounding wire can result in the risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded. Do not modify the power cord plug provided with the tool. Never remove the grounding prong from the plug. Do not use the tool if the power cord or plug is damaged. If damaged, have it repaired by a service facil- ity before use. If the plug will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet

2. Double insulated tools may be used in either of the 120 volt outlets shown in the preceding illustration. (See Figure B.) ExTENSION CORDS 1. Grounded tools require a three wire extension cord. Double Insulated tools can use either a two or three wire extension cord. 2. As the distance from the supply outlet increases, you must use a heavier gauge extension cord. Using extension cords with inadequately sized wire causes a seri- ous drop in voltage, resulting in loss of power and possible

CHARGING 1. The Battery Pack (19) requires charging before the initial use. The recommended initial charge time is twelve hours, prior to initial use of the Cordless Drill/Driver. Place the Charger on a solid surface such as a garage floor; never on anything flammable. Note: Always switch to a fresh battery when tool performance begins to diminish. Severe heat is destructive to batteries; the more heat generated, the faster the battery will lose power. A battery that gets too hot can b

Torque Settings: Use one of the 23 settings (1-23) for screwdriver usage. Use the Drill Bit setting for use with drill bits. The different sizes of screws pictured on the Ring are an indication of how much torque the Cordless Drill/Driver will apply to the bit before the clutch slips, allowing the bit to stop and helping to prevent damage to the screw, bit, or workpiece. The larger the screw, the more torque is applied before the clutch slips. Unless when drilling, always start with a l

If the clutch starts slipping before the screw is in all the way, stop the drill, put the Rotation Button (6) in the center position and change the torque setting. Reset the rotation direction before continuing. 16. If Drilling: Use the Drill torque setting, as described above. Drill only as deep as necessary. Do not drill deeper than necessary into wal
