11. Avoid accidental starting. Be sure switch  
is off before plugging in. Carrying tools with  
your finger on the switch or plugging in tools  
that have the switch on invites accidents.  
Electrical Safety  
4. Grounded tools must be plugged into an  
outlet properly installed and grounded in  
accordance with all codes and ordi-  
nances. Never remove the grounding  
prong or modify the plug in any way. Do  
not use any adaptor plugs. Check with a  
qualified electrician if you are in doubt as  
to whether the outlet is properly  
grounded. If the tools should electrically mal-  
function or break down, grounding provides a  
low resistance path to carry electricity away  
from the user.  
12. 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.  
13. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing  
and balance at all times. Proper footing and  
balance enables better control of the tool in  
unexpected situations.  
14. Use safety equipment. Always wear eye  
protection. Dust mask, non-skid safety  
shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection must  
be used for appropriate conditions. Ordinary  
eye or sun glasses are NOT eye protection.  
5. Avoid body contact with grounded sur-  
faces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and  
refrigerators. There is an increased risk of  
electric shock if your body is grounded.  
6. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet  
conditions. Water entering a power tool will  
increase the risk of electric shock.  
Tool Use and Care  
15. Use clamps or other practical way 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.  
7. Do 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.  
16. 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.  
8. 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.  
17. Do 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.  
Personal Safety  
9. Stay alert, watch what you are doing and  
18. Disconnect the plug from the power  
source before making any adjustments,  
changing accessories, or storing the tool.  
Such preventive safety measures reduce the  
risk of starting the tool accidentally.  
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.  
19. Store idle tools out of reach of children  
and other untrained persons. Tools are  
dangerous in the hands of untrained users.  
10. Dress properly. Do not wear loose cloth-  
ing 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.  
20. Maintain 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.

21. Check for misalignment or binding of  
moving parts, breakage of parts, and any  
other condition that may affect the tools  
operation. If damaged, have the tool ser-  
viced before using. Many accidents are  
caused by poorly maintained tools.  
SERVICE  
23. Tool service must be performed only by  
qualified repair personnel. Service or main-  
tenance performed by unqualified personnel  
could result in a risk of injury.  
24. 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  
electric shock or injury.  
22. Use only accessories that are recom-  
mended by the manufacturer for your  
model. Accessories that may be suitable for  
one tool, may become hazardous when used  
on another tool.  
USE PROPER EXTENSION CORD: Use only three-wire extension cords that have three-  
prong grounding-type plugs and three-pole receptacles that accept the tool's plug. Make  
sure your extension cord is in good condition. Replace or repair damaged or worn cord  
immediately. When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the  
current your product will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting  
in loss of power and overheating. Table 1 shows the correct size to use depending on cord  
length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gage. The smaller the  
gage number, the heavier the cord.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS  
This tool should be grounded while in use to protect the operator from electric shock. The  
tool is equipped with a three-conductor cord and three-prong grounding type plug to fit the  
proper grounding type receptacle. The green (or green and yellow) conductor in the cord is  
the grounding wire. Never connect the green (or green and yellow) wire to a live terminal.  
Your unit is for use on 120 volts and has a plug that looks like Fig. “A”.

OPERATION  
003074  
Holding tool  
CAUTION:  
1
This is a powerful tool. High torque is developed and it is  
important that the tool should be securely held and  
properly braced.  
2
Grasp the switch handle with one hand and the spade grip  
with the other hand. When drilling a large hole with a hole  
saw, etc., the side grip (auxiliary handle) should be used as a  
brace to maintain safe control of the tool.  
1. Reaction  
2. Forward  
003075  
When drilling action is forward (clockwise), the tool should be  
braced to prevent a counterclockwise reaction if the bit  
should bind. When reversing, brace the tool to prevent a  
clockwise reaction. If the bit must be removed from a partially  
drilled hole, be sure the tool is properly braced before revers-  
ing.

Drilling operation  
Drilling in wood  
When drilling in wood, the best results are obtained with  
wood drills equipped with a guide screw. The guide screw  
makes drilling easier by pulling the bit into the workpiece.  
Drilling in metal  
To prevent the bit from slipping when starting a hole, make  
an indentation with a center-punch and hammer at the point  
to be drilled. Place the point of the bit in the indentation and  
start drilling.  
Use a cutting lubricant when drilling metals. The exceptions  
are iron and brass which should be drilled dry.  
CAUTION:  
Pressing excessively on the tool will not speed up the  
drilling. In fact, this excessive pressure will only serve to  
damage the tip of your bit, decrease the tool  
performance and shorten the service life of the tool.  
There is a tremendous twisting force exerted on the tool/  
bit at the time of hole breakthrough. Hold the tool firmly

and exert care when the bit begins to break through the  
workpiece.  
A stuck bit can be removed simply by setting the  
reversing switch to reverse rotation in order to back out.  
However, the tool may back out abruptly if you do not  
hold it firmly.  
Always secure small workpieces in a vise or similar hold-  
down device.  
Avoid drilling in material that you suspect contains  
hidden nails or other things that may cause the bit to  
bind or break.  
MAINTENANCE  
CAUTION:  
Always be sure that the tool is switched off and  
unplugged before attempting to perform inspection or  
maintenance.

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. 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.
