When

YOU charge a new battery cartridge or a battery cartridge which has not been used for a long period, it may not accept a full charge. This i s a normal condition and does not indicate a problem. You can recharge the battery cartridge fully after discharging it almost completely a couple of times.

If you wish to charge two battery cartridges, allow 15 minutes between chargings on the fast charger.

Selecting action mode

Rotation with hammering:

For drilling in brick, concrete block, etc., move the change lever to the uou$> posi- tion. Be sure to use a concrete and masonry drilling bit.

Rotation only

:

For drilling in wood, metal or plastic mate- rials, move the change lever to the

GEE position.

Use a conventional bit for drilling in wood or metal.

Installing or removing drill bit or driver bit

CAUTION :

Always be sure that the tool i s switched off and the battery cartridge i s removed before installing or removing the bit.

Hold the ring and turn the sleeve counter- clockwise to open the chuck jaws. Place the bit in the chuck as far as it will go. Hold the ring firmly and turn the sleeve clock- wise to tighten the chuck.

To remove the bit, hold the ring and turn the sleeve counter-clockwise.

When not using the driver bit, keep it in the storage cavity on the tool.

Switch action

yove

the reversing switch lever to the

W

position for clockwise rotation or the position for counter-clockwise.

Tool speed is increased by increasing pres- sure on the trigger. To start the

tool,

simply pull the trigger. Release the trigger to stop.

When the reversing switch lever is in the neutral position, the tool will not start even if you pull the trigger.

CAUTION :

0

Before inserting the battery cartridge into the tool, always check to see that the trigger switch actuates properly and returns to the "OFF" position when released.

0

Always check the direction of rotation before drilling.

0

Use the reversing switch lever only when the tool comes to a complete stop. Changing the direction of rotation before the tool stops may ruin the tool.

When not operating the tool, keep the reversing switch lever in the neutral position.

Hammer drilling operation

Position the bit a t the location for the hole, then pull the trigger.

Do not force the tool. Light pressure gives best results. Keep the tool in position and prevent it from slipping away from the hole.

Do not apply more pressure when the hole becomes clogged with chips or particles.

Instead, run the tool a t an idle, then re- move from the hole.

By

repeating this several times, the hole will be cleaned out.

Drilling operation

0

Drilling in wood

When drilling in wood, best results are obtained with wood drills equipped with a guide screw. The guide screw makes drilling easier by pulling the bit into the workpiece.

0

Drilling in metal

To prevent the bit from slipping when starting a hole, make an indentation with a center- punch and hammer a t the point to be drilled. Place the point of the bit in the indenta- tion and s t a r t drilling.

Use a cutting lubricant when drilling metals. The exceptions are iron and brass which should be drilled dry.

8

CAUTION

:

.Pressing excessively on the tool will not speed up the drilling. In fact, this excessive pres- sure will only serve t o damage the tip of your bit, decrease the tool performance and shorten the service life of the tool.

.There i s a tremendous force exerted on the tool/bit a t the time of hole breakthrough,

Hold the tool firmly and exert care when the bit begins t o break through the workpiece.

0

A stuck bit can be removed simply by setting the reversing switch to reverse rotation in order to back out. However, the tool may back out abruptly if you do not hold it firmly.

0Always secure small workpieces in a vise or similar hold-down device.

Selecting correct Phillips bit

Use the chart to determine the best size driver bit for the size of screw that you wish to use.
