WORK AREA  
DANGER indicates an imminently hazardous  
situation which, if not avoided, will result in death  
or serious injury.  
Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered work benches and dark work  
areas may cause accidents or injury.  
WARNING indicates a potentially hazardous  
situation which, if not avoided, could result in  
death or serious injury.  
Do not operate power tools in explosive areas, such as in the presence of  
flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite  
the dust or fumes.  
CAUTION indicates a potentially hazardous  
situation which, if not avoided, may result in  
minor or moderate injury.  
Keep bystanders, children and visitors away while operating a power tool.  
Distractions can cause you to lose control.  
CAUTION used without the safety alert symbol  
indicates a potentially hazardous situation which,  
if not avoided, may result in property damage.  
ELECTRICAL SAFETY  
NOTE provides additional information that is useful  
for proper use and maintenance of this tool. If a  
NOTE is indicated make sure it is fully understood.  
Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord to carry the tool. Keep the cord  
away from heat, oil, sharp edges, or moving parts. Replace damaged cords  
immediately. Damaged cords may create a fire.  
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS  
A battery operated tool with integral batteries or a separate battery pack  
must be recharged only with the specified charger for the battery. A charger  
that may be suitable for one type of battery may create a risk of fire when used with  
another battery.  
People with electronic devices, such as pacemakers, should consult their  
physician(s) before using this product. Operation of electrical equipment in  
close proximity to a heart pacemaker could cause interference or failure of  
the pacemaker.  
Use battery operated tool only with specifically designated battery pack. Use of  
any other batteries may create risk of fire.  
WARNING: Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling and  
other construction activities contains chemicals known to the State of California  
to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm.  
PERSONAL SAFETY  
Some examples of these chemicals are:  
• Lead from lead-based paints.  
Stay alert, watch what you are doing, and use common sense when operat-  
ing 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.  
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 dust masks that are  
specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.  
Dress 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.  
Avoid accidental starting. Be sure switch is in the locked or OFF” position  
before inserting battery pack. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch  
or inserting battery pack into a tool with the power switch ON” invites accidents.  
WARNING: Handling the power cord on corded products may expose you to  
lead, a chemical known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth  
defects or other reproductive harm. Wash hands after handling.  
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.

SERVICE  
Tool service must be performed only by qualified repair personnel. Service or  
maintenance by unqualified personnel may result in a risk of injury.  
Remove 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.  
When servicing a tool, use only identical replacement parts. Follow instructions  
in the Maintenance section of this manual. Use of unauthorized parts or failure to  
follow Maintenance Instructions may create a risk of shock or injury.  
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Proper foot-  
ing and balance enable better control of the tool in unexpected situations.  
Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Dust mask, non-skid safe-  
ty shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection must be used for appropriate conditions.  
SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES AND/OR SYMBOLS  
TOOL USE AND CARE  
Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces when perform-  
ing an operation where the cutting tool may contact hidden wiring. Contact  
with a “live” wire will also make exposed metal parts of the tool live” and shock  
the operator.  
Use clamps or other practical ways to secure and support the workpiece to a  
stable platform. Holding the work by hand or against your body is unstable and  
may lead to loss of control.  
SAFETY RULES FOR CORDLESS DRILL / DRIVERS  
Do not force tool. Use the correct tool for your application. The correct tool  
will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it is designed.  
Always wear safety goggles or eye protection when using this tool. Use a  
dust mask or respirator for applications which generate dust.  
Do not use the tool if the power switch does not turn it ON” or OFF. A tool that  
cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.  
Do not grasp the tool or place your hands too close to the spinning chuck or  
drill bit. Your hand may be lacerated or may cause injury.  
Disconnect battery pack from tool or place the switch in the locked or OFF” posi-  
tion before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing the tool.  
Such preventative safety measures reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally.  
Secure the material being worked on. Never hold it in your hand or across  
your legs. Unstable support can cause loss of control and injury.  
Store idle tools out of reach of children and other untrained persons. Tools  
are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.  
Position yourself to avoid being caught between the tool or side handle and  
walls or posts. Should the socket or bit become bound in the work, the  
reaction torque of the tool could crush your hand or leg.  
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 termi-  
nals together may cause sparks, burns or a fire.  
Check to see that keys and adjusting wrenches are removed from the  
Cordless Drill before switching the tool “ ON” . Keys or wrenches can fly away  
at high velocity striking you or a bystander.  
When using the Cordless Drill, always maintain a firm grip on the tool with both  
hands.  
Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained  
tools with sharp cutting edge are less likely to bind and are easier to control.  
Keep the handle of the Cordless Drill dry, clean, and free from oil and grease.  
Check 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.  
Do not run the Cordless Drill while carrying it at your side. A spinning  
socket or bit could become entangled with clothing and injury may result.  
Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for your  
model. Accessories that may be suitable for one tool may create a risk of injury  
when used on another tool.  
Disconnect the plug or remove the battery pack from tool and place the switch  
in the locked or OFF” position before making any assembly adjustments,  
changing accessories, performing any inspection, maintenance or cleaning  
procedures. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the  
tool accidentally.

Use only the charger which accompanied your product or direct replacement as  
listed in this manual. Do not substitute any other charger. Use only Alltrade  
approved chargers with your product.  
Always switch to a fresh battery when tool performance begins to diminish.  
Severe heat is most destructive to a battery; the more heat generated, the faster  
the battery loses power. A battery that gets too hot can have a shortened life.  
Do not disassemble charger.  
Never over-discharge a battery by using the tool even after tool performance  
has decreased. Do not attempt to discharge a tool’s battery by continuing to  
pull on the tool trigger. When tool performance begins to diminish, stop the tool  
and recharge the battery for optimal performance.  
Do not use charger if it has been damaged, left outdoors in the rain, snow, wet  
or damp environments, or immersed in liquid.  
The battery pack and charger heat during charging. Place the charger on a flat,  
non-flammable surface away from flammable materials with at least four inches of  
clearance to allow proper air circulation around the charger and battery pack.  
Charge battery pack at ambient temperatures between 50° F – 104° F.  
Store tool and battery pack in locations where temperatures will not exceed  
When the battery pack requires recharging, a 1 hour charge allows the tool to  
operate at full power. A charging indicator light on the charger will illuminate to  
show that charging is taking place.  
120°F. This is important to prevent serious damage to the battery cells.  
The battery pack should always be recharged when the Cordless Drill begins to  
run slowly.  
When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects such as  
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

IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR RECHARGING HOT BATTERIES  
When using your Cordless Drill continuously, the batteries in your battery pack  
will become hot. You should let a hot battery pack cool down for approximately  
30 minutes before attempting to recharge. When the battery pack becomes  
discharged and is hot, the red light on the charger will flash. When the battery  
pack cools down, the red light will glow continuously to indicate fast charging  
mode, 1-hour charge time.  
2. Insert the shank of the bit (or  
other accessory) fully into the  
keyless chuck, taking care to  
keep the bit in the center of  
the jaws of the chuck.  
3. Turn the front end of the chuck clockwise to hold the bit in place.  
4. Tighten securely by turning the front end of the chuck clockwise while holding  
the rear end.  
This will occur when continuous use of your Cordless  
Drill causes the battery pack to become hot. It does not occur under normal  
circumstances.

Never try to start a stalled Drill by clicking the trigger switch ON” and OFF” .  
This may damage your tool.  
DRILLING METAL  
WHEN DRILLING HARD METALS:  
To reduce jamming, always keep the Drill running when pulling the bit out of a  
finished hole.  
Apply a lubricant, such as cutting oil, to the tip of the bit.  
Start with a small hole then enlarge to the required size. Make sure the bit is  
actually cutting and not spinning in the hole as this will dull the edges of the bit.  
SCREWDRIVING:  
Always use the correct type and size of screwdriver bit.  
Keep enough pressure on the bit to keep it drilling through the material.  
• If screws are difficult to tighten, try applying a small amount of washing liquid or  
soap as a lubricant.  
DRILLING MASONRY  
WHEN DRILLING MASONRY:  
Always hold the tool and screwdriver bit in a straight line with the screw.  
• Masonry can be brittle so be careful not to apply too much pressure and crack  
the material.  
MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING  
Apply enough pressure to keep the bit cutting and not spinning in the hole as this  
will dull the edges of the bit.  
Always remove the battery pack before attempting  
cleaning or maintenance.  
Bricks and similar soft materials will require less pressure, concrete will require  
much more.  
This Cordless Drill is lubricated before it leaves the  
factory. This lubrication should last for the life of the tool. No further  
lubrication is required.  
DRILLING WOOD  
Use twist bits to drill holes in wood. Make sure the bits are sharp. Pull the bits  
out of the hole frequently to clear chips from the flutes as an overburdened bit  
may overheat.  
Use only mild soap and a damp cloth to clean the tool. Never let any liquid get  
inside the casing. Never immerse any part of the tool in a liquid. Always keep the  
ventilation openings clear.  
HINTS FOR OPTIMUM USE  
Always clean the battery pack using only a dry cloth. Do not use liquids.  
Always unplug the charger before cleaning it.  
DRILLING:  
Keep the right amount of pressure in a straight line with the drill bit. Too little and  
the bit will spin without cutting, too much and the motor may stall.  
Regularly clean the ventilation slots in your tool and charger using only a soft  
brush or dry cloth.  
• Just before the drill tip breaks though the other side of the work piece drill more  
slowly and decrease pressure on the tool. This will prevent stalling and leave a  
cleaner hole.  
Never open the Cordless Drill case, battery pack or charger. Do not attempt to  
repair the Cordless Drill, battery pack or charger yourself. Opening any of these  
parts will void your warranty.  
Use a block of wood to back up work pieces that may splinter.  
Use spade bits when drilling large diameter holes in wood.  
Use HSS drill bits when drilling in metal.  
Use masonry bits when drilling in soft masonry.  
Use a lubricant when drilling metals other than cast iron, aluminum, copper,  
and brass.  
When drilling, start the hole slowly, allowing the bit to drill deep enough to prevent  
slipping at higher speeds.

ACCESSORIES  
PROTECTING THE ENVIRONMENT  
Use 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.  
BATTERIES  
Alltrade batteries can be recharged many times. At the end of their useful life,  
recycle batteries with due care for our environment.  
Always attach grounded (3-prong) extension cords to grounded (3-hole) outlets.  
Ni-Cad and Ni-MH batteries are recyclable. Take them to your local recycling center  
or call 1-800-822-8837. Collected batteries will be recycled or disposed of properly.  
If you must use an extension cord, be sure that the gauge is large enough to carry  
the amount of current necessary for your power tool. If not, your tool may experi-  
ence a loss of power, excessive voltage drop or overheating. The smaller the gauge  
number, the heavier the cord (see table below).

BATTERY TOOL USE AND CARE  
CAUTION indicates a potentially hazardous  
situation which, if not avoided, may result in  
minor or moderate injury.  
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.  
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.  
CAUTION used without the safety alert symbol  
indicates a potentially hazardous situation which,  
if not avoided, may result in property damage.  
Use power tools only with specifically designated battery packs. Use of any other  
battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire.  
NOTE provides additional information that is useful  
for proper use and maintenance of this tool. If a  
NOTE is indicated make sure it is fully understood.  
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.  
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS  
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.  
People with electronic devices, such as pacemakers, should consult their  
physician(s) before using this product. Operation of electrical equipment in  
close proximity to a heart pacemaker could cause interference or failure of  
the pacemaker.  
SERVICE  
Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical  
replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.  
WARNING: Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling and  
other construction activities contains chemicals known to the State of California  
to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm.  
SAFETY RULES FOR WORKLIGHT  
Some examples of these chemicals are:  
• Lead from lead-based paints.  
Use battery operated tool only with specifically designated  
battery pack. Use of any other batteries may create risk of fire.  
Crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products,  
and arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber.  
Keep the handle of the Worklight dry, clean, and free from oil and grease.  
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 dust masks that are  
specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.  
Do not run the Worklight while carrying it at your side. The worklight heats up  
immediately when in use and could result in burns.  
Do not use the Worklight if it has been damaged, left outdoors in the rain, snow,  
wet or damp environments, or immersed in liquid.  
WARNING: Handling the power cord on corded products may expose you to  
lead, a chemical known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth  
defects or other reproductive harm. Wash hands after handling.  
Maintain labels and nameplates on the Worklight. These carry important informa-  
tion. If unreadable or missing, contact Alltrade for a replacement.  
Battery pack must be recharged only with the specified charger for the battery. A  
charger that may be suitable for one type of battery may create a risk of fire when used  
with another battery.  
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.  
Do not use in a damp or wet environment.  
Store out of reach of children and other untrained persons.

REMOVING / ATTACHING BATTERY PACK  
REMOVE BATTERY PACK:  
1. Press both release buttons on either side of  
the Cordless Worklight to release the battery pack.  
Before using battery pack, please read carefully all instructions  
and cautionary markings on battery pack, battery charger and  
product using battery.  
2. Pull battery pack free of Cordless Worklight.  
®
ATTACH BATTERY PACK:  
Do not incinerate the battery pack even if it is severely dam-  
aged or is completely worn out. The battery pack can explode.  
1. Align the raised portion of the battery pack  
with the groove in the battery compart-  
ment  
Do not carry battery packs in aprons, pockets, or tool boxes, product kit  
boxes, drawers, etc. with loose metal objects. Battery pack terminals could

of the Cordless Worklight.  
2. Press the battery pack into place. Make  
sure the latches are securely fastened.  
Do not use the Cordless Worklight if the  
battery pack is not seated properly.  
The battery pack is Nickel-Cadmium (Ni-Cad) and is considered to be a toxic  
material by the Environmental Protection Agency. Before disposing of dam-  
aged or worn out Ni-Cad battery packs, check with your State Environmental  
Protection Agency to find out about special restrictions on the disposal of these  
battery packs, take them to your local recycling center for proper disposal, or  
call 1-800-822-8837.  
RELEASE  
BUTTON  
CHARGER  
Before using battery charger, please read carefully all  
instructions and cautionary markings on battery charger, battery pack and  
product using battery.  
The battery is not fully charged. Before first use, the battery pack requires  
3-5 hours charge time to be fully charged. Subsequent recharging needs 1 hour  
for the battery to be fully charged.  
Always switch to a fresh battery when tool performance begins to diminish.  
Severe heat is most destructive to a battery; the more heat generated, the faster  
the battery loses power. A battery that gets too hot can have a shortened life.  
Use only the charger which accompanied your product or direct replacement as  
listed in this manual. Do not substitute any other charger. Use only Alltrade  
approved chargers with your product.  
Do not disassemble charger.  
Never over-discharge a battery by using the tool even after tool performance  
has decreased. Do not attempt to discharge a tool’s battery by continuing to  
pull on the tool trigger. When tool performance begins to diminish, stop the tool  
and recharge the battery for optimal performance.  
Do not use charger if it has been damaged, left outdoors in the rain, snow, wet  
or damp environments, or immersed in liquid.  
The battery pack and charger heat during charging. Place the charger on a flat,  
non-flammable surface away from flammable materials with at least four inches of  
clearance to allow proper air circulation around the charger and battery pack.  
Charge battery pack at ambient temperatures between 50° F – 104° F.  
Store tool and battery pack in locations where temperatures will not exceed  
120°F. This is important to prevent serious damage to the battery cells.  
When the battery pack requires recharging, a 1 hour charge allows the tool to  
operate at full power. A charging indicator light on the charger will illuminate to  
show that charging is taking place.  
The battery pack should always be recharged when the Cordless Worklight  
begins to dim.  
When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects such as  
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 sparks, burns, or fire.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR RECHARGING HOT BATTERIES  
When using your Worklight continuously, the batteries in your battery pack  
will become hot. You should let a hot battery pack cool down for approximately  
30 minutes before attempting to recharge. When the battery pack becomes  
discharged and is hot, the red light on the charger will flash. When the battery  
pack cools down, the red light will glow continuously to indicate fast charging  
mode, 1-hour charge time.  
REPLACING THE LIGHT BULB  
This will occur when continuous use of your Worklight  
causes the battery pack to become hot. It does not occur under normal  
circumstances.  
This Worklight uses a Krypton 18V, 0.3A light bulb. Use of any other kind of  
light bulb may cause damage or injury.  
Parts of this worklight heat up almost immediately when in use. To avoid  
burns, use caution when handling light bulb and metal reflector. Never change  
a hot light bulb. Bulb must be cool to the touch before attempting to remove or  
replace it.

Use 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.  
Always attach grounded (3-prong) extension cords to grounded (3-hole) outlets.  
If you must use an extension cord, be sure that the gauge is large enough to carry  
the amount of current necessary for your power tool. If not, your tool may  
experience a loss of power, excessive voltage drop or overheating. The smaller the  
gauge number, the heavier the cord (see table below).  
3. Remove the bulb by turning it  
slightly and pulling it out of the bulb  
fitting. Be careful not to damage the  
delicate parts inside the case.  
4. Insert the new bulb, then carefully  
put the rim back in place and turn  
it clockwise to tighten it.

INTENDED USE  
BATTERY  
This tool is intended for consumer use only. Your charger and/or adapter has been  
designed for charging batteries of the type approved and supplied with this tool.  
Before using battery pack, please read carefully all instructions  
and cautionary markings on battery pack, battery charger and  
product using battery.  
RECOGNIZE SAFETY SYMBOLS, WORDS AND LABELS  
The safety instructions provided in this manual are not intended to cover all possible  
conditions and practices that may occur when operating, maintaining and cleaning  
power tools.  
®
Do not incinerate the battery pack even if it is severely dam-  
aged or is completely worn out. The battery pack can explode.  
Always use common sense and pay particular attention to all the DANGER,  
WARNING, CAUTION and NOTE statements of this manual.  
Do not carry battery packs in aprons, pockets, or tool boxes, product kit  
boxes, drawers, etc. with loose metal objects. battery pack terminals could  
be short circuited causing damage to the battery pack, severe burns or fire.  
The battery pack is Nickel-Cadmium (Ni-Cad) and is considered to be a toxic  
material by the Environmental Protection Agency. Before disposing of dam-  
aged or worn out Ni-Cad battery packs, check with your State Environmental  
Protection Agency to find out about special restrictions on the disposal of these  
battery packs, take them to your local recycling center for proper disposal, or  
call 1-800-822-8837.  
This is the safety alert symbol. It is used to alert  
you to potential personal injury hazards. Obey all  
safety messages that follow this symbol to avoid  
possible injury or death.  
DANGER indicates an imminently hazardous  
situation which, if not avoided, will result in death  
or serious injury.  
The battery is not fully charged. Before first use, the battery pack requires  
8-10 hours charge time to be fully charged. Subsequent recharging needs 3-5  
hours for the battery to be fully charged.  
WARNING indicates a potentially hazardous  
situation which, if not avoided, could result in  
death or serious injury.  
Always switch to a fresh battery when tool performance begins to diminish.  
Severe heat is most destructive to a battery; the more heat generated, the faster  
the battery loses power. A battery that gets too hot can have a shortened life.  
CAUTION indicates a potentially hazardous  
situation which, if not avoided, may result in  
minor or moderate injury.  
Never over-discharge a battery by using the tool even after tool performance  
has decreased. Do not attempt to discharge a tool’s battery by continuing to  
pull on the tool trigger. When tool performance begins to diminish, stop the tool  
and recharge the battery for optimal performance.

CAUSES AND PREVENTION OF KICKBACK  
Never use damaged or incorrect blade washers or bolts.  
bolts were specifically designed for your saw, for optimum performance and safety  
of operation.

When the blade is pinched or bound tightly by the kerf closing down, the blade stalls and  
the motor reaction drives the unit rapidly back toward the operator.  
SAFETY RULES FOR CIRCULAR SAW  
If the blade becomes twisted or misaligned in the cut, the teeth at the back edge of the  
blade can dig into the top surface of the wood causing the blade to climb out of the kerf

3-5 hours charge time to be fully charged. Subsequent recharging needs 1 hour  
for the battery to be fully charged.  
BLADE SAFETY LOCK BUTTON  
This button locks the blade in position  
and prevents it from moving.  
Always switch to a fresh battery when tool performance begins to diminish.  
Severe heat is most destructive to a battery; the more heat generated, the faster  
the battery loses power. A battery that gets too hot can have a shortened life.  
Never over-discharge a battery by using the tool even after tool performance  
has decreased.  
Do not attempt to discharge a tool’s battery by continuing to  
pull on the tool trigger. When tool performance begins to diminish, stop the tool  
and recharge the battery for optimal performance.  
Charge battery pack at ambient temperatures between 50° F – 104° F.  
Store tool and battery pack in locations where temperatures will not exceed  
120°F.  
This is important to prevent serious damage to the battery cells.  
BEVEL LEVELING KNOB  
This knob controls the beveling  
of your cut.  
The battery pack should always be recharged when the Cordless Circular Saw  
begins to run slowly.  
When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects such as  
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 sparks, burns, or fire.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR RECHARGING HOT BATTERIES  
When using your Cordless Drill continuously, the batteries in your battery pack  
will become hot. You should let a hot battery pack cool down for approximately  
30 minutes before attempting to recharge. When the battery pack becomes  
discharged and is hot, the red light on the charger will flash. When the battery  
pack cools down, the red light will glow continuously to indicate fast charging  
mode, 1-hour charge time.  
Use only the charger which accompanied your product or direct replacement as  
listed in this manual.  
Do not substitute any other charger. Use only Alltrade  
approved chargers with your product.  
Do not disassemble charger.  
Do not use charger if it has been damaged, left outdoors in the rain, snow, wet  
or damp environments, or immersed in liquid.

GENERAL CUTTING  
PLUNGE CUTTING  
Never feed the blade into the work piece until the blade  
is at full speed. If the blade is not at full speed, the saw may kick back  
causing serious personal injury.  
Always hold the saw in front of you and away from your body. Keep your  
hands and feet well away from the work piece.  
Never feed the blade into the work piece until the blade is at full speed.  
If the blade is not at full speed, the saw may kick back causing serious  
personal injury..  
Use proper blade for the particular cutting application.  
• Mark out the line to be cut so it is easily visible.  
Start inside the area to be cut out.  
Depress the lock-on button and press the trigger  
to start the saw.  
Put on eye protection.  
Set the shoe against the work piece.  
Clear the saw of any  
foreign material.  
When the blade reaches full speed, slowly feed the blade into the work piece.  
• Make sure the work piece is held  
securely in place. Hold smaller  
pieces in a vise or attach to the  
workbench with clamps.  
METAL CUTTING  
Never use gasoline or any flammable liquid as a  
lubricant. Sparking from the motor may cause it to ignite into flames.  
• Mark out the line to be cut so it is easily visible.  
Pull the trigger to start the saw.  
When cutting metals other then copper, brass or aluminum, always use a lubri-  
cant, such as cutting oil, to keep the blade cool. This will prolong the life of the  
blade as well as speeding up the cutting process.  
Set the shoe against the work piece.  
When the blade reaches full speed, slowly feed the blade into the work piece.  
• Make sure the work piece is held securely in place. Hold smaller pieces, such as  
pipe or conduit, in a vise or attach to the workbench with clamps.  
To eliminate vibration, always cut close to the clamping point.  
When cutting thin sheets of metal, place a piece of plywood on either side to control  
vibration and prevent tearing.

ACCESSORIES  
OIL  
Use 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.  
Always attach grounded (3-prong) extension cords to grounded (3-hole) outlets.  
If you must use an extension cord, be sure that the gauge is large enough to carry  
the amount of current necessary for your power tool.  
If not, your tool may experi-  
ence a loss of power, excessive voltage drop or overheating. The smaller the gauge  
number, the heavier the cord (see table on next page).
