Black & Decker PS9600 Cordless Drill User Manual


 
6. To reduce risk of damage to electric plug and cord, pull by plug rather than cord when
disconnecting charger.
7. Make sure cord is located so that it will not be stepped on, tripped over, or otherwise sub-
jected to damage or stress.
8. An extension cord should not be used unless absolutely necessary. Use of improper
extension cord could result in a risk of fire, electric shock or electrocution.
a. Two-wire cords can be used with 2-wire or 3-wire extension cords. Only round jacketed
extension cords should be used, and we recommend that they be listed by Underwriters
Laboratories (U.L.). If the extension is to be used outside, the cord must be suitable for
outdoor use. Any cord marked for outdoor use can also be used for indoor work. The let-
ters "W" or "WA" on the cord jacket indicate that the cord is suitable for outdoor use.
b. An extension cord must have adequate wire size (AWG or American Wire Gauge) for
safety, and to prevent loss of power and overheating. The smaller the gauge number of
the wire, the greater the capacity of the cable; that is, 16 gauge has more capacity than
18 gauge. When using more than one extension to make up the total length, be sure
each extension contains at least the minimum wire size.

9. Use only the supplied charger when charging your drill. The use of any other charger
could damage the drill or create a hazardous condition.
10. Use only one charger when charging.
11. Do not attempt to open the charger or the drill. There are no customer serviceable parts
inside. Return to any authorized Black & Decker service center.
12. DO NOT incinerate the drill or battery packs even if they are severely damaged or com-
pletely worn out. The batteries can explode in a fire.
13. Do not incinerate the batteries. They can explode in a fire. A small leakage of liquid from
the battery cells may occur under extreme usage, charging or temperature conditions.
This does not indicate a failure. However, if the outer seal is broken and this leakage gets
on your skin:
a. Wash quickly with soap and water.
b. Neutralize with a mild acid such as lemon juice or vinegar.
c. If the battery liquid gets in your eyes, flush them with clean water for a minimum of 10
minutes and seek immediate medical attention. MEDICAL NOTE: The liquid is a 25-35%
solution of potassium hydroxide.
CHARGING THE POWER PACK
THE BATTERIES IN YOUR POWER PACK ARE NOT FULLY CHARGED AT THE
FACTORY. BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO CHARGE THEM, THOROUGHLY READ ALL OF
THE SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS.
The charger is designed to use standard household 120 volt 60 Hz power.
1. Make sure the battery is fitted into the drill as shown in Figure 1. Insert the charger plug
into the connector as shown in Figure 2.
2. Plug the charger into any standard 120 Volt 60 Hz electrical outlet and let the battery
charge initially for 9 hours. After the initial charge, under normal usage, your power pack
should be fully charged in 3 to 6 hours.
3. Disconnect the tool from the charger. WARNING: Do not use the tool while it is con-
nected to the charger.
IMPORTANT CHARGING NOTES
1. After normal usage, your power pack should be fully charged in 3 to 6 hours. If the power
pack is run-down completely, it may take up to 6 hours to become fully charged. Your
power pack was sent from the factory in an uncharged condition. Before attempting to
use it, it must be charged for at least 9 hours.
2. DO NOT charge the power pack in an air temperature below 40°F or above 105°F. This
is important and will prevent serious damage to the power pack. Longest life and best
performance can be obtained if power pack is charged when air temperature is about
75°F.
3. While charging, the charger may hum and become warm to touch. This is a normal con-
dition and does not indicate a problem.
4. If the power pack does not charge properly—(1) Check current at receptacle by plugging
in a lamp or other appliance. (2) Check to see if receptacle is connected to a light switch
which turns power off when you turn out the lights. (3) Move charger and power pack to
a surrounding air temperature of 40°F to 105°F. (4) If the receptacle and temperature are
OK, and you do not get proper charging, take or send the power pack and charger to your
local Black & Decker service center. See Tools Electric in yellow pages.
5. The power pack should be recharged when it fails to produce sufficient power on jobs
which were easily done previously. DO NOT CONTINUE using product with its power
pack in a depleted condition.
6. To prolong power pack life, avoid leaving the power pack on charge for extended periods
of time (over 30 days without use). Although overcharging is not a safety concern, it can
significantly reduce overall power pack life.
7. The power pack will reach optimum performance after being cycled 5 times during normal
usage. There is no need to run the batteries down completely before recharging. Normal
usage is the best method of discharging and recharging the batteries.
Safety Warnings and Instructions: Drills
1. Hold drill firmly to control the twisting action of the drill. See Figure 3.
2. When attaching accessories in the drill chuck, hand tighten the keyless chuck firmly.
WARNING: Drill may stall (if overloaded or improperly used) causing a twist. Always
expect the stall. Grip the drill firmly to control the twisting action (see Fig. 3) and prevent loss
of control which could cause personal injury. If a stall does occur, release the trigger
immediately and determine the reason for the stall before re-starting.
Operating Instructions
FITTING AND REMOVING A DRILL BIT OR SCREWDRIVER BIT (FIGURE 4)
WARNING: First remove the battery from the tool.
This tool is equipped with a keyless chuck to allow for easy exchange of bits.
Lock the tool by setting the forward/reverse slider (2) to the center position.
Open the chuck by turning the front part (11) with one hand while holding the rear part (12)
with the other (Figure 4).
Insert the bit shank (13) into the chuck.
Firmly tighten the chuck by turning the front part (11) with one hand while holding the rear
part (12) with the other.
SELECTING THE DIRECTION OF ROTATION (FIGURE 5)
A forward/reverse control slider (2) determines the direction of the tool and also serves as a
lock off. To select forward rotation, push the forward/reverse slider to the left. To select
reverse rotation, depress the forward/reverse slider to the right. To lock the tool, set the
forward/reverse slider into the center position.
SELECTING THE OPERATING MODE OR TORQUE (FIGURE 6)
This tool is fitted with a collar to select the operating mode and to set the torque for tightening
screws. Large screws and hard workpiece materials require a higher torque setting than
small screws and soft workpiece materials.
For drilling in wood, metal and plastics, set the collar (3) to the drilling position by aligning
the symbol with the marking (15).
For screwdriving, set the collar to the desired setting. If you do not yet know the appropri-
ate setting, proceed as follows:
Set the collar (3) to the lowest torque setting.
Tighten the first screw.
If the clutch ratchets before the desired result is achieved, increase the collar setting and
continue tightening the screw. Repeat until you reach the correct setting. Use this setting
for the remaining screws.
Drilling
Use sharp drill bits only.
Support and secure work properly, as instructed in the Safety Instructions.
Use appropriate and required safety equipment, as instructed in the safety instructions.
Secure and maintain work area, as instructed in the safety instructions.
Run the drill very slowly, using light pressure, until the hole is started enough to keep the
drill bit from slipping out of it.
Apply pressure in a straight line with the bit. Use enough pressure to keep the bit biting
but not so much as to stall the motor or deflect the bit.
