Intended use  
b. Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection.  
Safety equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety  
shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for  
appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.  
c. Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the switch is in  
the off position before plugging in. Carrying power  
tools with your finger on the switch or plugging in power  
tools that have the switch on invites accidents.  
d. Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning  
the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a  
rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.  
e. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance  
at all times. This enables better control of the power tool  
in unexpected situations.  
Your Black & Decker drill/screwdriver has been designed for  
screwdriving applications and for drilling in wood, metal, plastics  
and soft masonry. This tool is intended for consumer use only.  
General safety rules  
Warning! Read all instructions. Failure to follow all instructions  
listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious  
injury. The term “power tool” in all of the warnings listed  
below refers to your mains operated (corded) power tool or  
battery operated (cordless) power tool.  
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.  
1. Work area  
a. Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered and dark  
areas invite accidents.  
b. Do 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.  
f. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or  
jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away  
from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair  
can be caught in moving parts.  
g. If devices are provided for the connection of dust  
extraction and collection facilities, ensure these  
are connected and properly used. Use of these  
devices can reduce dust related hazards.  
c. Keep children and bystanders away while operating  
a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.  
2. Electrical safety  
4. Power tool use and care  
a. Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify  
the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs  
with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs  
and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.  
b. Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded  
surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and  
refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock  
if your body is earthed or grounded.  
a. Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power  
tool for your application. The correct power tool will do  
the job better and safer at the rate for which it was  
designed.  
b. Do not use the power tool if the switch does not  
turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be  
controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be  
repaired.  
c. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions.  
Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of  
electric shock.  
d. Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for  
carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool.  
Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or  
moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the  
risk of electric shock.  
e. When operating a power tool outdoors, use an  
extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a  
cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric  
shock.  
c. Disconnect the plug from the power source before  
making any adjustments, changing accessories, or  
storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures  
reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.  
d. Store idle power tools out of the reach of children  
and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power  
tool or these instructions to operate the power tool.  
Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.  
e. Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or  
binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any  
other condition that may affect the power tools  
operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired  
before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly  
maintained power tools.  
3. Personal safety  
a. Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use  
common sense when operating a power tool. Do not  
use a power tool while you are tired or under the  
influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment  
of inattention while operating power tools may result in  
serious personal injury.  
f. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly  
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less  
likely to bind and are easier to control.  
4
g. Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc.,  
in accordance with these instructions and in the  
manner intended for the particular type of power  
tool, taking into account the working conditions  
and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool  
for operations different from those intended could result  
in a hazardous situation.  
- In case of skin or eye contact, follow the instructions  
below.  
Warning! The battery fluid, a 25-30% solution of potassium  
hydroxide, can be harmful. In case of skin contact, immediately  
rinse with water. Neutralise with a mild acid such as lemon  
juice or vinegar. In case of eye contact, rinse abundantly with  
clean water for at least 10 minutes. Consult a physician.  
5. Battery tool use and care  
a. Ensure the switch is in the off position before  
inserting battery pack. Inserting the battery pack into  
power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.  
b. Recharge only with the charger specified by the  
manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one type of  
battery pack may create a risk of fire when used with  
another battery pack.  
c. Use power tools only with specifically designated  
battery packs. Use of any other battery packs may  
create a risk of injury and fire.  
d. When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from  
other metal objects like paper clips, coins, keys,  
nails, screws, or other small metal objects that can  
make a connection from one terminal to another.  
Shorting the battery terminals together may cause burns  
or a fire.  
e. Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from  
the battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally  
occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes,  
additionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from  
the battery may cause irritation or burns.
