IMPORTANT
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
(For All Tools)
WARNING: WHEN USING ELECTRICTOOLS, BASIC SAFETY
PRECAUTIONS SHOULD ALWAYS
BE FOLLOWEDTO REDUCE
THE RISK
OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, AND PERSONAL
INJURY, INCLUDING THE FOLLOWING:
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS.
1. KEEP WORK AREA CLEAN. Cluttered areas and benches invite injuries.
2. CONSIDER WORK AREA ENVIRONMENT. Don’t use power tools in damp
or wet locations. Keepwork area well
lit. Don’t expose power tools torain.
Don‘t use tool
in presence of flammable liquids or gases.
3. KEEP CHILDREN AWAY. All visitors should be kept away from work area.
Don‘t let visitors contact tool or extension cord.
4. STORE IDLETOOLS. When not in use, tools should be stored in dry, and high
or locked-up place - out of reach of children.
5. DON‘T FORCETOOL. It will dothejob better andsafer atthe rate for which
it was intended.
6. USE RIGHT TOOL. Don’t force small tool or attachmentto do the job of a
heavy-duty tool. Don’t use tool for purpose not intended.
7. DRESS PROPERLY. Don‘t wear looseclothingor jewelry. They can becaught
in moving parts. Rubber gloves and nonskid footwear are recommended
when working outdoors. Wear protective hair covering tocontain long hair.
8. USE SAFETY GLASSES. Also use face or dust mask if cutting operation is
dusty.
9. DON’T ABUSE CORD. Never carry toolby cord or yank it todisconnect from
receptacle. Keep cord from heat, oil, and sharp edges.
IO. SECURE WORK. Use clamps or a vise to hold work. It’s safer than using
your hand and
it frees both hands to operate tool.
11. DON’T OVERREACH. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
12. MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE. Keep tools sharp and clean for better and
safer performance. Follow instructions for lubricating and changing acces-
sories. Inspecttoolcords periodically andifdamaged, have repaired by autho-
rized service facility. Inspect extension cords periodically and replace if
damaged. Keep handles dry, clean, and free from
oil and grease.
13. DISCONNECTTOOLS. When not inuse, before servicing, and when chang-
ing accessories, such as blades, bits, cutters.
2

14. REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS AND WRENCHES. Form habit of checking to
see that keysand adjusting wrenches are removedfromtool before turning
it on.
15. AVOID UNINTENTIONALSTARTING. Don’t carry plugged-intool with finger
on switch. Be sure switch is
OFF when plugging in.
16. OUTDOOR USEEXTENSION CORDS. Whentoolisusedoutdoors, useonly
extension cords intended for use outdoors and
so marked.
17. STAY ALERT. Watch what you are doing, use common sense. Don’t operate
tool when you are tired.
18. CHECK DAMAGED PARTS. Before further use of the tool, a guard or other
part that
is damaged should be carefully checked to determine that it will
operate properly and perform itsintended function. Check for alignment of
moving parts,
binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, mounting, and
any other conditions that may affect its operation. A guard or other part
that is damaged should be properly repaired or replaced by an authorized
service center unless otherwise indicated elsewhere in this instruction
manual. Havedefective switches replaced by authorized service center. Don‘t
use tool
if switch does not turn it on and off.
19. GUARD AGAINST ELECTRIC SHOCK. Preventbody contact with grounded
surfaces. For example; pipes, radiators, ranges, refrigerator enclosures.
20. REPLACEMENTPARTS. When servicing, useonly identicalreplacementparts.
VOLTAGE WARNING: Beforeconnecting the
tool toa power source (receptacle,
outlet, etc.) be sure the voltage supplied is the same as that specified on the
nameplate of the tool. A power source
with voltage greater than that specified
for the tool can result
in SERIOUS INJURY tothe user - as well as damage to
the tool. If
in doubt, DO NOT PLUG IN THE TOOL. Using a power source with
voltage less than the nameplate rating is harmful to the motor.

Installingor removing battery cartridge
0 Always switch off the tool before insertion or removal of the battery cartridge.
0 To remove the battery cartridge, pull out
the
set plate and grasp both sides of the
cartridge while withdrawing
it from the
tool.
0 To install the battery cartridge, insert the
battery cartridge into the housing and
snap the
set plate back into place. Be sure
to close the
set plate fully before using
the tool.
Charging
Plug the fast charger into your power
source. Insert the battery cartridge
so that
the plus and minus terminals on the bat-
tery cartridge are on the same sides
as their
respective markings on the fast charger.
Insert the cartridge fully into the port
so
that it rests on the charger port floor.
Press the start button (red). The charging
liqht will come on and charging will begin.

--
lfthe charginglight does not come on, press the reset button (yellow)first, then the start
button (red). If the charginglight goes outwithin
10 seconds even after pressing the reset
buttonand start button
a couple of times, the battery cartridge is dead. (CAUTION : Wait
for more than 5 seconds after the charginglight goes out to press the reset buttonagain.)
Replace
it with a new one. When the charging light goes out after about one hour, you
may remove the fully charged battery cartridge.
After charging, unplug the charger from the power source.
CAUTION
:
*Your new battery cartridge is not charged. You will need to charge it before use.
0 Do not keep the button pressed in with tape, etc., or the circuit will not function pro-
perly. Also,
a malfunction of the charger may result possibly causingoverheating, etc.
0 If you try to charge a cartridge from a just-operated tool, sometimes the charging light
will not come on. If this occurs,
let the cartridge cool off for a while. Then re-insert it
and try to charge itonce more.
0 When you charge a new battery cartridge or a battery cartridge which has not been used
for
a long period, it may not accept a full charge. This is a normal condition and does
not indicate
a problem. You can recharge the battery cartridge fully after discharging it
almost completely a couple of times.
0 If youwish to charge two battery cartridges, allow 15 minutes betweenchargings on the
fast charger.

Trigger switch
CAUTION :
Before inserting the battery cartridge into the tool, always check to see that the trigger
switch actuates properly and returns to the
"OFF" position when released.
Overload protector
The overload protector automatically cuts
out to break the circuit and the button
pops out, whenever heavy work
is pro-
longed.
Wait 20-30 seconds before press-
ing the restart button to resume operation.
Your finger should not be on the trigger
when you press the restart button, how-
ever.

Reversing swtich action
This tool has
a reversing switch to change
the direction of rotation. Slide the revers-
ing switch to the left for clockwise rota-
tion or tothe right for counterclockwise.
Reversing switch
CAUTION :
0 Always check the direction of rotation before operation.
*Use the reversing switch only when the tool comes to
a complete stop. Changing the
direction of rotation before the tool stops may ruin the tool.
Speed change
To change the speed, turn the speed change
knob
180' while the tool is running. Be
sure that the speed change knob
is turned
to the correct speed setting before you
begin operation. See arrow indication. Use
the right speed for the
job.
Adjusting fastening torque
The fastening torque can be adjusted in six
stages by turning the adjusting ring so that
the pointer on the adjusting ring points to
a number on the tool body. The fastening
torque
is minimum whenthe pointer points
to the number
1 and maximum when it
points to the
at- marking. The clutch
will slip
at varying torque levels when the
pointer
is set at the numbers 1 to 5. The
clutch
is designed not to slip at the -\-
marking.

Drilling operation
Drilling in wood
When drilling in wood, 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
centerpunch 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 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 reversingswitch to reverse rotation in
order to back out. However,the tool may back out abruptly if
you do not hold itfirmly.
Always secure small workpieces in a vise or similar hold-downdevice.
