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 personal 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

A battery operated tool with integral batteries or a separate battery pack must be recharged only with

the specified charger for the battery. A charger that may be suitable for one type of battery may create a risk of fire when used with another battery.

Use battery operated tool only with specifically

designated battery pack. Use of any other batteries may create a risk of fire.

MODEL BATTERY PACK (P100) CHARGER (P110)

P220 130255004 1423701, 140237023 or 140237021

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 clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be caught in moving parts.

Avoid accidental starting. Be sure switch is in the locked or off position before inserting battery pack.

Carrying tools with your finger on the switch or inserting the battery pack into a tool with the switch on invites accidents.

Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before turning

the tool on. A wrench or a 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 enable 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.

Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Contain long

hair. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be drawn into air vents.

Do not use on a ladder or unstable support. Stable footing on a solid surface enables better control of the tool in unexpected situations.

TOOL USE AND CARE

Use clamps or other practical way to secure and sup-

port 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.

A tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.

Disconnect battery pack from tool or place the switch in the locked or off position before making any adjust-

ments, changing accessories, or storing the tool. Such preventive 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.

When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects like: paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws, or other small metal objects that can make

a connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the battery terminals together may cause sparks, burns, or a fire.

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 tool’s 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 create a risk of injury when used on another tool.

Keep the tool and its handle dry, clean and free from

oil and grease. Always use a clean cloth when cleaning. Never use brake fluids, gasoline, petroleum-based products, or any strong solvents to clean your tool. Following this rule will reduce the risk of loss of control and deterioration of the enclosure plastic.

GENERAL SAFETY RULES

SERVICE

Tool service must be performed only by qualified re-

pair personnel. Service or maintenance performed by unqualified personnel may 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 shock or injury.

SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES

Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation where the cutting tool may con-

tact hidden wiring. Contact with a “live” wire will also make exposed metal parts of the tool “live” and shock the operator.

Know your power tool. Read operator’s manual carefully. Learn its applications and limitations, as well as the specific potential hazards related to this tool.

Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock, fire, or serious injury.

Always wear safety glasses with side shields.

Everyday glasses have only impact resistant lenses. They are NOT safety glasses. Following this rule will reduce the risk of eye injury.

Protect your lungs. Wear a face or dust mask if the

operation is dusty. Following this rule will reduce the risk of serious personal injury.

Protect your hearing. Wear hearing protection during

extended periods of operation. Following this rule will reduce the risk of serious personal injury.

Battery tools do not have to be plugged into an electrical outlet; therefore, they are always in operating condition. Be aware of possible hazards when not using your battery tool or when changing accessories.

Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock, fire, or serious personal injury.

Do not place battery tools or their batteries near fire

or heat. This will reduce the risk of explosion and possibly injury.



Never use a battery that has been dropped or

received a sharp blow. A damaged battery is subject to explosion. Properly dispose of a dropped or damaged battery immediately.

Batteries vent hydrogen gas and can explode in the presence of a source of ignition, such as a pilot light.

To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, never use any cordless product in the presence of open flame. An exploded battery can propel debris and chemicals. If exposed, flush with water immediately.

Do not charge battery tool in a damp or wet

location. Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock.

For best results, your battery tool should be charged in a location where the temperature is more than

50°F but less than 100°F. Do not store outside or in vehicles.

Under extreme usage or temperature conditions, battery leakage may occur. If liquid comes in contact with your skin, wash immediately with soap and water, then neutralize with lemon juice or vinegar. If liquid gets into your eyes, flush them with clean water for at least

10 minutes, then seek immediate medical attention.

Following this rule will reduce the risk of serious personal injury.

OPERATION

DRILLING

See Figure 13.

Follow these steps to drill.



Secure the material to be drilled in a vise or with clamps to keep it from turning as the drill bit rotates.



Hold the tool firmly and place the bit at the point to be drilled.



Depress the trigger switch to start the tool.



Move the drill bit into the workpiece, applying only enough pressure to keep the bit cutting. Do not force or apply side pressure to elongate a hole.

WARNING:

Be prepared for binding at bit breakthrough. When these situations occur, the drill has a tendency to grab and kick in the opposite direction and could cause loss of control when breaking through material. If you are not prepared, this loss of control could result in possible serious injury.

HELPFUL TIPS



When drilling hard, smooth surfaces, use a center punch to mark the desired hole location. This prevents the drill bit from slipping off center as you start the hole. You may, however, start holes without center punching if you use the lower speed. To accomplish this action, simply operate the drill at a lower speed until the hole is started.



When drilling metals, use a light oil on the drill to keep it from overheating. The oil will prolong the life of the bit and increase the drilling action.



If the bit jams in the workpiece or if the drill stalls, stop the tool immediately. Remove the bit from the workpiece and determine the reason for jamming.

WARNING:

Do not force the tool. Forcing the tool can result in jamming and loss of balance or footing, which could result in personal injury.
