OPERATION

BATTERY CHARGING

To charge the battery pack it must first be removed from the drill. To release the battery pack squeeze the grips located on either side of the battery casing and gently pull the battery pack from the housing (fig.1). Plug the battery charger unit into a

230V/A.C. 13 amp, three-pin socket. For the

CHD96V, CRD12V, CHD12V, CHD12V2, CHD14V &

CHD14V2 place the battery in the charger as shown in (fig 2A). For the CHD142V Plus and the

CHD182V Plus place the battery in the charger as shown in (fig 2B). Do not force. Ensure the battery is inserted correctly. The indicator light on the charger will now glow to show that the battery is charging (fig.3). When the battery is fully charged the light will go out (approx. 1 hour). The battery pack can then be removed and used to power the tool. To refit the battery pack to the drill push firmly until the battery pack locates and snaps into place.

NOTE:

The battery was discharged after manufacturing and will therefore require five to ten charges/discharges before it reaches its full capacity.

INSTALLING AND REMOVING BITS

This drill is fitted with a keyless chuck, this means that a chuck key is not required to secure the drill or screwdriver bit. Place the drill into the chuck as far as it will go, then hand tighten.

Short screwdriver bits need only be inserted to the depth of the hexagon shank before tightening the chuck by hand. Alternatively grip part ✪✌ of the chuck, (fig.4) and slowly run the drill clockwise until the chuck grips the bit, then hand tighten.

DIRECTION SWITCH

This switch determines the direction of rotation of the chuck, i.e. clockwise or anticlockwise.

To alter the direction of rotation, stop the drill and push ✮✌, (fig.5), switch to the left or right. When the direction switch is in the 'F’ (forward) position the chuck will rotate clockwise when viewed from the handle end of the drill. When the switch is in the ‘R’ (reverse) position the chuck will rotate anticlockwise when viewed from the handle. Before operation check that the switch is set in the required position. Do not change the direction of rotation until the chuck comes to a complete stop.

When the drill is not in use move the direction switch to the neutral position (the middle setting).

CHANGING SPEEDS

To change the speed of the chuck, push the two-speed gearbox selection switch ✫✌, (fig. 6 and 7) forwards for low speed, or backwards for high speed.

IMPORTANT: ONLY CHANGE SPEED WHEN

THE MACHINE HAS STOPPED.

TRIGGER

When the trigger is depressed the chuck will rotate (provided the direction switch is set in the forward or reverse position). This trigger switch is electronic which enables the user to vary the speed continuously in both gears. 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.

TORQUE CONTROL

By turning the collar ✬✌, (fig.8) it is possible to adjust the amount of torque.

In the “twist drill” setting, (fig.8 ), the drill/screwdriver has full torque.

Settings 1-10 can be used in either gear and provide a facility for setting the torque to the required level. For example this means that repetitive driving of screws of the same size will be driven into the material to the same torque, thus giving the same fixing strength, or in the case of countersunk screws, these will all be driven to the same depth in the material.

The torque control prevents the heads of small diameter screws being twisted off when correctly set.

HOLDING THE DRILL

The drill casing is designed to be held comfortably in two ways.

1. By the handle, (fig.9).

2. Or, by the in-line support grip (fig.10).

DRILLING WOOD AND PLASTIC

To prevent splitting around the drill holes on the reverse side, place a piece of scrap timber under the material to be drilled.

DRILLING MASONRY

Start drilling at a low speed to prevent the drill bit from wandering. Once penetration is achieved fully depress the trigger to achieve maximum speed and hammer power.

DRILLING METAL

Metals such as sheet steel, aluminium and brass may be drilled. Mark the point to be drilled with a centre punch to help the drill bit tip to locate.

SCREWDRIVING

To prevent slip or damage to the screwhead, match the screwdriver bit to the screwhead size. To remove screws move the direction switch to the reversing position and apply pressure to the screwhead and depress the trigger slowly.

MAINTENANCE

Neither the drill or charger require any special maintenance.

Keep both the drill and the charger in a dry place where they will not be exposed to frost or direct sunlight.
