3. Personal safety  
Safety instructions  
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.  
WARNING. Read and understand 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 below refers to your mains-operated (corded)  
power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.  
Save these instructions  
1. Work area  
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.  
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.  
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.  
c. Keep children and bystanders away while operating  
a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.  
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.  
2. Electrical safety  
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.  
e. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at  
all times. This enables better control of the power tool in  
unexpected situations.  
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.  
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.  
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. 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.  
4. Power tool use and care  
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.  
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.

Ensure that the lighting is adequate.  
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.  
Do not put pressure on the drill, such that it slows the  
motor down. Allow the drill bit to cut without pressure. You  
will get better results and you will be taking better care of  
your tool.  
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.  
Keep the area free of tripping hazards.  
Do not let anyone under 18 years operate this tool.  
Only use accessory bits in good condition.  
Before drilling, check that there is sufficient clearance for  
the drill bit under the workpiece.  
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.  
Do not touch the bit after operation. It will be very hot.  
Keep your hands away from under the workpiece.  
Never use your hands to remove sawdust, chips or waste  
close by the bit.  
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.  
Rags, cloths, cord, string and the like should never be left  
around the work area.  
Support the work properly.  
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.  
If you are interrupted when operating the drill, complete  
the process and switch off before looking up.  
Periodically check that all nuts, bolts and other fixings are  
properly tightened.  
When using the drill, use safety equipment including  
safety glasses or shield, ear defenders, and protective  
clothing including safety gloves. Wear a dust mask if the  
drilling operation creates dust.  
5. Service  
a. Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair  
personnel using only identical replacement parts.  
This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is  
maintained.  
If in doubt, do not plug in the tool. Using a power source  
with a voltage less than the nameplate rating is harmful to  
the motor.  
The tool must be used only for its prescribed purpose.  
Any use other than those mentioned in this Manual will  
be considered a case of misuse. The user and not the  
manufacturer shall be liable for any damage or injury  
resulting from such cases of misuse.

In this condition, DO NOT force cool the pack by placing in  
a freezer or similar device. Refer to the “Overload” section  
in this manual.  
Unpacking  
Due to modern mass production techniques, it is unlikely  
that your GMC Power Tool is faulty or that a part is missing.  
If you find anything wrong, do not operate the tool until the  
parts have been replaced or the fault has been rectified.  
Failure to do so could result in serious personal injury.  
Another feature of the drill/battery pack is the low voltage  
cut out feature. This feature operates when the voltage  
drops below a pre set value. When this occurs the tool will  
automatically stop operating. To correct the situation you  
need to either insert another charged battery into the drill  
or recharge the existing battery, and then proceed with the  
drilling/driving application.  
Important information – Product care  
This drill/driver uses Lithium Ion Battery Cells. Care  
MUST be taken to ensure both the safety and life of the  
pack is maintained. Ensure you have read all of the safety  
notes in the previous pages before using the drill/driver.  
Note: Attempting to restart the tool in this condition without  
either recharging the battery or installing a battery with  
charge will lead to drill restarting and then stopping again  
after only a few seconds of operation.  
Safety devices and circuitry for this tool are located in  
the battery pack of this tool. The battery pack is a vital  
component, not just for the power source, but also for  
the full safety control for both the charging and also the  
tool operation. Treat the battery pack with care and within  
the guidelines of this manual. If the pack does become  
immersed in water or any fluids, or is subject to a sever  
drop etc, or it does not operate within the guidelines of  
this manual, immediately STOP using the battery pack  
and have it checked.  
These safety devices have been fitted for the safety,  
reliability and life of the tool.  
Fitting and removing the battery pack  
To remove the battery pack from the drill firmly press the  
battery release tabs (7) at either side of the battery pack,  
and slide the battery backward out of the tool.  
To install the battery pack, align  
rails, on the tool with the tabs  
on the battery pack and slide  
the battery pack on to the drill.  
Ensure the battery pack is sitting  
straight on the foot and correctly  
entering the runners. The battery  
should slide fully on to the drill  
foot until the battery pack “clicks”  
into position.  
During operation avoid overloading the drill/driver. If  
the drill driver is overloaded it will automatically STOP.  
Overloading may occur for a number of reasons including  
when the drill driver is pushed too hard or when using a  
drill bit or attachment greater than what is specified. If you  
do overload the drill driver during operation refer to the  
“Overload” section in this manual.  
Note: When the battery of the drill is at the lower end of the  
charge, the drill is more susceptible to the overload condition.  
As mentioned above the battery pack is an integral  
component of this tool and it is fitted with thermal safety  
devices. Running the drill at close to maximum load, or  
continual resetting of the overload will cause the battery  
pack to over heat. When a preset cell temperature is  
detected, the battery pack will automatically STOP  
operating and will not restart until the battery pack has  
cooled to a safe level.

stored with battery packs as these or similar items can  
short battery packs and cause a fire or explosion.  
IMPORTANT. Before plugging in the power supply from the  
charger to the slim line adaptor always ensure that the plug  
is switched off at the mains.  
Always unplug the charger when not in use and store in  
a dry secure place.  
IMPORTANT. The battery will be fully charged after  
approximately 3-5 hours, remove it from the adaptor after  
this time.  
Avoid charging, using or storing your battery in  
temperatures below 0ºC and above 40ºC.  
Do not leave a battery charging for longer than 24 hours.  
Using the drill  
1. Align and slide the slim line

(4) to select the direction of  
rotation, then pull the trigger  
(3). This trigger switch is an  
electronic variable speed control  
which enables the user to vary  
the speed continuously. The  
speed varies according to how far  
the trigger switch is depressed,  
the further it is depressed the  
faster the chuck will rotate and the  
lighter it is depressed, the slower  
it will rotate.  
2. Connect the power supply  
from the charger (9) to the slim  
line adaptor via the socket in  
the rear of the adaptor housing.  
3. Plug in the charger and switch  
on. The red LED indicator will  
show power to the adaptor and  
that charging is taking place.  
To stop the drill, release the  
trigger switch.  
4. The battery charging time is  
Note. You can only change the  
direction of rotation of the drill  
using the forward/reverse switch

Forward/reverse switch  
Inserting and removing bits  
This switch (4) will allow you  
to change the direction of  
the motor while the trigger  
switch is not depressed.  
This drill has a keyless chuck, which means that a chuck  
key is not needed to secure a bit in the drill.  
1. Open the chuck by holding the  
rear section of the chuck firm  
and rotating the front section  
in a anti-clockwise direction,  
sufficiently enough to allow the  
drill bit required to fully enter  
the jaws of the chuck.  
Drilling uses the forward mode.  
The reverse mode is intended  
for the removal of screws.  
Adjustable torque  
This drill is equipped with 21  
torque settings plus one drill  
setting which are controlled by  
the torque collar (2). By rotating  
the collar behind the chuck, it is  
possible to adjust the torque.  
2. Ensure the drill bit is fully  
inserted, so that the chuck  
jaws grip the straight section of the bit.  
3. Holding the rear section of the chuck firmly, rotate the  
front section of the chuck clock-wise until the jaws tighten  
on the drill bit. The front section of the chuck needs to be  
tightened firmly to ensure the drill bit is held securely.  
This will allow better control  
when using the drill as a  
screwdriver as it prevents over-  
tightening of the screws.  
4. To remove the drill bit, hold the rear section of the chuck  
firmly and rotate sharply the front section of the chuck in  
a anti-clockwise direction, sufficiently enough to allow the  
drill bit to be removed.  
For drilling, always use the use the Drill position by aligning  
the Drill symbol with the triangular indicator on the front face  
of the drill near the torque collar.  
Adjustable side handle  
For setting the torque position, select a low setting on  
the torque collar and align the selected symbol with the  
triangular indicator on the top of the drill. Increase gradually  
to set the correct torque. It is better to use a scrap piece of  
material if possible to set the torque.  
1. Turn the side handle clamp  
knob (6) anti-clockwise  
to loosen the collar fully and  
slip it over the chuck (1) onto  
the drill.  
2. Adjust the position of the  
side handle (5) to suit the  
application and tighten the  
side handle clamp knob (6)  
to secure it in place.
