TO CHARGE THE CORDLESS DRILL
1. NOTE: The Battery Pack (15) requires charging. The first charge requires 1 hour
charge time prior to using the Cordless Drill. (See Figure A.)
2. When the Battery Pack (15) requires recharging, a 1 hour quick charge allows the
tool to operate at full power. Do not recharge the Battery Pack longer than 1 hour, as
damage to the Battery Pack and/or Charger (21) may occur. Do not leave the charger
unattended while charging. (See Figure A.)
3. Make sure the Trigger on the Cordless Drill is in its “OFF” position. Slide the Battery
Pack (15) off of the Handle of the Cordless Drill. Next, slide the Charger Plug onto
the Charging Socket of the Battery Pack. Then, plug the Charger (21) into the nearest
120 volt, grounded, electrical outlet. (See Figure A.)
4. Verify that the charging indicator light comes on. If it does not come on, check the
power cord connection. Charge the Battery Pack (15) until the charging indicator
light turns off and the charged indicator light comes on. When the Battery Pack (15)
is fully charged, the Charger (21) will automatically shut off. (See Figure A.)
5. NOTE: While charging, the Battery Pack (15) and Charger (21) may become warm
to the touch. This is normal, and does not indicate a problem. (See Figure A.)
6. Once the Battery Pack (15) is fully charged, disconnect the Charger (21) from the
electrical outlet. Then, disconnect the Charger from the Battery Pack.
(See Figure A.)
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. When installing Drill Bits, make sure the Battery Pack (15) is removed from the
Cordless Drill to avoid accidental starting. Then, insert and lock in place a Drill Bit
in the Chuck (4) of the Cordless Drill.
2. Whenever possible, secure the workpiece in place, using a vise or clamps (not
included).
3. When drilling in light gauge metal or wood, use a wooden block to back up the
material to prevent damage to the workpiece.
4. Mark the center of the hole to be drilled with a center punch to give a Drill Bit a start
and to prevent it from “walking”.
5. Lubricate the Drill Bit with cutting oil when drilling iron or steel. Use a coolant when
drilling nonferrous metals such as copper, brass, or aluminum.
6. Insert the fully charged Battery Pack (15) into the Handle of the Cordless Drill.
(See Figure B.)
