all instructions listed below, may result in electric shock,  
fire and/or serious personal injury.  
plugging in. Carrying tools with your finger on the switch  
or plugging in tools that have the switch on invites acci-  
dents.  
nRemove adjusting keys or wrenches before turning  
the tool on. A wrench or a key that is left attached to a  
rotating part of the tool may result in personal injury.  
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS  
WORK AREA  
nDo not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance  
at all times. Proper footing and balance enables better  
control of the tool in unexpected situations.  
nKeep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered  
benches and dark areas invite accidents.  
nUse safety equipment. Always wear eye protection.  
Dust mask, nonskid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing  
protection must be used for appropriate conditions.  
nDo not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres,  
such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases,  
or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the  
dust or fumes.  
nDo not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Contain long  
hair. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be drawn  
into air vents.  
nKeep bystanders, children, and visitors away while  
operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to  
lose control.  
nDo not use on a ladder or unstable support. Stable  
footing on a solid surface enables better control of the  
tool in unexpected situations.  
ELECTRICAL SAFETY  
TOOL USE AND CARE  
nDouble insulated tools are equipped with a polarized  
plug (one blade is wider than the other). This plug will  
fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does  
not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still  
does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install a  
polarized outlet. Do not change the plug in any way.  
nUse clamps or other practical way to secure and sup-  
port the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the  
work by hand or against your body is unstable and may  
lead to loss of control.  
nDo not force tool. Use the correct tool for your appli-  
cation. The correct tool will do the job better and safer  
at the rate for which it is designed.  
Double insulation  
eliminates the need for the three-  
wire grounded power cord and grounded power supply  
system.  
nDo not use tool if switch does not turn it on or off.  
Any tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is  
dangerous and must be repaired.  
nAvoid body contact with grounded surfaces such as  
pipes, radiators, ranges, and refrigerators. There is an  
increased risk of electric shock if your body is ground-  
ed.  
nDisconnect the plug from power source before mak-  
ing any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing  
the tool. Such preventive safety measures reduce the  
risk of starting the tool accidentally.  
nDon’t expose power tools to rain or wet conditions.  
Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of elec-  
tric shock.  
nStore idle tools out of the reach of children and other  
untrained persons. Tools are dangerous in the hands of  
untrained users.  
nDo not abuse the cord. Never use the cord to carry  
the tools or pull the plug from an outlet. Keep cord  
away from heat, oil, sharp edges, or moving parts.  
Replace damaged cords immediately. Damaged cords  
increase the risk of electric shock.  
nMaintain tools with care. Keep cutting tools sharp  
and clean. Properly maintained tools with sharp cutting  
edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.  
n
When operating a power tool outside, use an outdoor  
extension cord marked “W-A” or “W”. These cords  
are rated for outdoor use and reduce the risk of electric  
shock.  
nCheck for misalignment or binding of moving parts,  
breakage of parts, and any other condition that may  
affect the tool’s operation. If damaged, have the tool  
serviced before using. Many accidents are caused by  
poorly maintained tools.  
PERSONAL SAFETY  
nUse only accessories that are recommended by the  
manufacturer for your model. Accessories that may be  
suitable for one tool, may become hazardous when used  
on another tool.  
nStay alert, watch what you are doing and use common  
sense when operating a power tool. Do not use tool  
while tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol,  
or medication. A moment of inattention while operating  
power tools may result in serious personal injury.  
nKeep the tool and its handle dry, clean and free from  
oil and grease. Always use a clean cloth when clean-  
ing. Never use brake fluids, gasoline, petroleum-based  
products, or any strong solvents to clean your tool. Fol-  
lowing this rule will reduce the risk of loss of control and  
deterioration of the enclosure plastic.  
nDress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry.  
Contain long hair. Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves  
away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long  
hair can be caught in moving parts.

GENERAL SAFETY RULES  
nWhen servicing a tool, use only identical replacement  
SERVICE  
parts. Follow instructions in the Maintenance section  
of this manual. Use of unauthorized parts or failure to fol-  
low Maintenance Instructions may create a risk of shock  
or injury.  
nTool service must be performed only by qualified re-  
pair personnel. Service or maintenance performed by  
unqualified personnel may result in a risk of injury.  
SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES  
nHold tool by insulated gripping surfaces when per-  
forming an operation where the cutting tool may  
contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Contact with a  
“live” wire will make exposed metal parts of the cutting  
tool “live” and shock the operator.  
breakage of parts, mounting, and any other conditions  
that may affect its operation. A guard or other part that  
is damaged should be properly repaired or replaced  
by an authorized service center. Following this rule will  
reduce the risk of shock, fire, or serious injury.  
nDo not abuse cord. Never carry the tool by the cord  
or yank it to disconnect it from the receptacle. Keep  
cord away from heat, oil, and sharp edges. Following  
this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock or fire.  
ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES  
nKnow your power tool. Read operator’s manual care-  
fully. Learn its applications and limitations, as well  
as the specific potential hazards related to this tool.  
Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock,  
fire, or serious injury.  
nMake sure your extension cord is in good condition.  
When using an extension cord, be sure to use one  
heavy enough to carry the current your product will  
draw. A wire gage size (A.W.G.) of at least 16 is recom-  
mended for an extension cord 50 feet or less in length.  
A cord exceeding 100 feet is not recommended. If in  
doubt, use the next heavier gage. The smaller the gage  
number, the heavier the cord. An undersized cord will  
cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and  
overheating.  
nAlways wear safety glasses. Everyday eyeglasses  
have only impact-resistant lenses; they are NOT  
safety glasses. Following this rule will reduce the risk  
of serious personal injury.  
nProtect your lungs. Wear a face or dust mask if the  
operation is dusty. Following this rule will reduce the  
risk of serious personal injury.  
nProtect your hearing. Wear hearing protection during  
extended periods of operation. Following this rule will  
reduce the risk of serious personal injury.

Constantly stay aware of cord location. Following this  
rule will reduce the risk of electric shock or fire.  
nDrugs, alcohol, medication. Do not operate tool while  
under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or any medica-  
tion. Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric  
shock, fire, or serious personal injury.  
nCheck damaged parts. Before further use of the  
tool, a guard or other part that is damaged should  
be carefully checked to determine that it will operate  
properly and perform its intended function. Check for  
alignment of moving parts, binding of moving parts,  
nSave these instructions. Refer to them frequently and  
use them to instruct others who may use this tool. If you  
loan someone this tool, loan them these instructions  
also.  
WARNING:  
Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities contains chemicals  
known to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:  
• lead from lead-based paints,  
• crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, and  
• arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber.  
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to  
these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks  
that are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.

DOUBLE INSULATION  
EXTENSION CORDS  
Doubleinsulationisaconceptinsafetyinelectricpowertools,  
which eliminates the need for the usual three-wire grounded  
power cord. All exposed metal parts are isolated from the  
internal metal motor components with protecting insulation.  
Double insulated tools do not need to be grounded.  
When using a power tool at a considerable distance from  
a power source, be sure to use an extension cord that has  
the capacity to handle the current the tool will draw. An un-  
dersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage, resulting in  
overheating and loss of power. Use the chart to determine  
the minimum wire size required in an extension cord. Only  
round jacketed cords listed by Underwriter’s Laboratories  
(UL) should be used.  
WARNING:  
The double insulated system is intended to protect the  
user from shock resulting from a break in the tool's in-  
ternal insulation. Observe all normal safety precautions  
to avoid electrical shock.  
When working outdoors with a tool, use an extension cord  
that is designed for outside use. This type of cord is desig-  
nated with "WA" on the cord's jacket.  
Before using any extension cord, inspect it for loose or  
exposed wires and cut or worn insulation.  
Important: Servicing of a tool with double insulation requires  
extreme care and knowledge of the system and should be  
performedonlybyaqualifiedservicetechnician. Forservice,  
we suggest you return the tool to your nearest authorized  
service center for repair. Always use original factory replace-  
ment parts when servicing.

BIT STORAGE  
See Figure 7.  
WARNING:  
When not in use, bits provided with your drill can be  
placed in the storage area located on the bottom of  
your drill as shown in figure 7.  
Be prepared for binding or bit breakthrough. When  
these situations occur, drill has a tendency to grab  
and kick opposite to the direction of rotation and  
could cause loss of control when breaking through  
material. Ifnotprepared, thislossofcontrolcanresult  
in possible serious injury.  
When drilling metals, use a light oil on the drill bit to keep  
it from overheating. The oil will prolong the life of the bit  
and increase the drilling action.

LEVEL DRILLING  
See Figures 8 and 9.  
DRILLING  
See Figure 8.  
Two levels are recessed in the motor housing of your  
drill-driver. One is located on top, while the other is  
located on the end. They can be used to keep drill bits  
level during both horizontal and vertical drilling opera-  
tions.  
When drilling hard smooth surfaces use a center punch  
to mark desired hole location. This will prevent the  
drill bit from slipping off center as the hole is started.  
However, the low speed feature allows starting holes  
without center punching if desired. To accomplish this,  
simply operate your drill at a low speed until the hole  
is started.  
The material to be drilled should be secured in a vise  
or with clamps to keep it from turning as the drill bit  
rotates.  
Hold tool firmly and place the bit at the point to be  
drilled. Depress the switch trigger to start tool.  
LEVEL  
Move the drill bit into the workpiece applying only  
enough pressure to keep the bit cutting. Do not force  
or apply side pressure to elongate a hole.
