GENERAL SAFETY RULES USA0031
(For All Battery Operated Tools)
WARNING! Read and understand ail instructions. Failure
to follow all instructions listed below, may result in electric
shock, fire and/or serious personal injury.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Work Area
1. Keep your work areacleanandwell lit. Cluttered benchesanddark areas invite
accidents.
2. Do notoperate powertools inexplosiveatmospheres, suchas in the presence
of flammable liquids, gases, or dust. Power tools create sparks which may
ignite the dust or fumes.
3. Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away while operating a power tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose control.
Electrical Safety
4. A battery operated tool with integral batteries or a separate battery pack
must be rechargedonly with the specified chargerfor the battery.
A charger
that may be suitable for one type of battery may create a risk of fire when
used
with another battery.
5. Use battery operated tool only with specifically designated battery pack.
Use of any other batteries may create a risk
of fire.
Personal Safety
6. Stay alert, watch what youaredoing, andusecommonsense whenoperating
a power tool. Do not use tool while tired or under the influence of drugs,
alcohol, or medication.
A moment of inattentionwhile operating powertools
may result in serious personal injury.
7. Dressproperly. Donotwear looseclothing orjewelry. Containlonghair. Keep
your hair, clothing, andglovesaway from movingparts. Looseclothes, jewelry,
or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
8. Avoid accidentalstarting. Be sureswitchis in the lockedor off positionbefore
inserting battery pack. Carrying tools
with your finger on the switch or
inserting the battery pack into a tool
with the switch.on invites accidents.
9. Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before turning the tool on. A wrench
or
a keythat is left attached toarotatingpart of thetool may result in personal
injury.
IO. Do notoverreach. Keep properfootingandbalanceatalltimes. Properfooting
and balance enable better control of the tool in unexpected situations.
11. Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Dust mask, non-skid
safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection must be used for appropriate
conditions.
3

Tool Use and Care
12. Use clamps or other practical way to secure and support the workpiece to
a stable platform. Holdingthe work
by handor against your body is unstable
and may lead to
loss of control.
13. Donot force tool. Usethe correct toolfor your application. The correct tool
will do the job better and safer at the rate for which
it is designed.
14. Do not use tool if switch does not turn it on or off. A tool that cannot be
controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
15.Disconnect battery pack from tool or place the switch
in the locked or off
position before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing
the tool. Such preventive safety measuresreducethe risk of starting thetool
accidentally.
16. Store idle tools out of reachof children and other untrained persons. Tools
are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
17.When battery pack isnot
in use, keep it away from other metalobjects like:
paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws,
or other small metalobjects that can
make a connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the battery
terminals together may cause sparks, burns, or a fire.
18. Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintainedtools
with sharp cuttingedge are lesslikelytobind and are easier
to control.
19. Check for misalignment or bindingof 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.
20. Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for your
model. Accessoriesthat may be suitablefor one tool maycreatea risk of injury
when used on another tool.
Service
21. Tool service must be performed only by qualified repair personnel. Service
or maintenanceperformedby unqualifiedpersonnelmay resultina risk of injury.
22. When servicing a tool, use only identical replacement parts. Follow
instructions
in the Maintenance section of this manual. Use of unauthorized
parts or failure tofollow Maintenance Instructions may create a risk of shock
or injury.

Specific Safety Rules
USBO22-1
1. Hold toolby insulated grippingsurfaces whenperformingan 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.
2. Be aware that this tool is always in an operating condition, because it does
not have to be plugged into an electrical outlet.
3. Always be sure you have a firm footing.
4. Be sure no one is below when using the tool in high locations.
5. Hold the tool firmly.
6. Keep hands away from rotating parts.
7. Do not leave the tool running. Operate the tool only when hand-held.
8. Do not touch the drill bit or the workpiece immediately after operation; they
may be extremely hot and could burn your skin.

accidentallyfall outof the tool, causing injury toyou or someone aroundyou.
Do not use force when insertingthe battery cartridge. If the cartridge does not slide in
easily, it isnot being insertedcorrectly.
Charging
Plug the battery charger into your power
source.
*Insert the battery cartridge
so that the
plus and minus terminals on the battery
cartridge are on the same sides as their
respective markings on the battery
charger. Insertthe cartridge fully intothe
port
so that it rests on the charger port
floor.
When the battery cartridge is inserted, the charging light color will flash in red color and

a problem.You can recharge the battery cartridgefully after discharging
it completely and recharging a couple of times.
When you charge a battery cartridge from a just-operated tool or a battery cartridge
which has been left in
a location exposed to direct sunlight or heat for a longtime, let it
cool off. Then reinsert it and try to charge it once more.

toolto rest for
15 minutesbeforeproceedingwith a fresh battery.
Drillingoperation
First, turn the adjusting ring so that the pointer on the tool body pointsto the fi marking.
Then proceedas follows.
*Drillinginwood
When drillinginwood, best resultsare obtainedwith wood drills equippedwith
a guide
screw. The guide screw makesdrillingeasier by pullingthe bit intothe workpiece.
To preventthe bitfrom slipping when starting a hole, makean indentationwith a center-
punch and hammer
at the pointto be drilled. Place the point of the bit inthe indentation
and start drilling.
Use
a cutting lubricant when drilling metals. The exceptions are iron and brass which
should be drilleddry.
*Drilling in metal

CAUTION:
*Pressingexcessively on the tool will notspeed up the drilling. Infact, this excessivepres-
sure will only serve to damage the tip of your bit, decrease the tool performance and
shortenthe service life
of the tool.
*There is
a tremendous force exerted on the tool/bit at the time of hole breakthrough.
Holdthe tool firmly and exertcarewhen the bit begins to break throughthe workpiece.
*A stuck bit can be removed simply by setting the reversingswitch to reverse rotationin
order to back out. However,the tool mayback out abruptly
if youdo not hold it firmly.
*Always securesmallworkpieces in
a viseor similar hold-downdevice.
*If the tool is operatedcontinuouslyuntil the battery cartridge has discharged, allow the
tool to rest for 15minutes beforeproceedingwith
a fresh battery.
