KNOW YOUR DRILL-DRIVER
See Figure 1.
Before attempting to use any tool, familiarize yourself with all
operating features and safety requirements.
WARNING:
Do not allow familiarity with tools to make you careless.
Remember that a careless fraction of a second is
sufficient to inflict severe injury.
CHARGING YOUR DRILL-DRIVER
This tool has been shipped in a low charge condition to
prevent possible problems. Therefore, you should charge it
at least 6 hours prior to use.
Note: Batteries will not reach full charge the first time they
are charged. Allow several cycles (drilling followed by re-
charging) for them to become fully charged.
TO CHARGE
Charge only with the charger provided.
Connect charger to the tool by inserting charger plug
into input jack. Note: As shown in figure 2, input jack is
located at rear of tool.
Make sure power supply is normal house voltage,
120 volts, 60 Hz, AC only.
Connect charger to power supply.
The charge indicator light (LED) indicator, which is
located on rear of drill, will light up when charger is
properly connected to power supply. This red light indi-
cates your drill is charging and will remain on until
charger is disconnected from power supply.

After normal usage, 3 hours of charging time is re-
quired to be fully charged. A minimum charge time of 6
hours is required to recharge a completely discharged
battery.
The charger housing and the tool handle will become
slightly warm to the touch while charging. This is nor-
mal and does not indicate a problem.
DO NOT operate drill while it is connected to the charger.
The driving ability will not increase.
DO NOT place charger in an area of extreme heat or
cold. It works best at normal room temperature.
The operation of any power tool can result in foreign objects being thrown into your
eyes, which can result in severe eye damage. Before beginning power tool operation,
always wear safety goggles or safety glasses with side shields and a full face shield
when needed. We recommend Wide Vision Safety Mask for use over eyeglasses or
standard safety glasses with side shields.
