GENERAL SAFETY RULES USA0021
(For All Tools)
WARNING! Read and understand all instructions. Failure
tofollow all instructions listed below, may result
in electric
shock, fire and/or serious personal injury.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Work Area
1. Keep your work area cleanand well lit. Cluttered benches and dark areas invite
accidents.
2. Donotoperate powertools in explosiveatmospheres, such as inthe 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. Double Insulatedtools are equipped witha polarized plug(oneblade iswider
than the other.) This plug will
fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the
plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If
it still does not fit,
contact a qualified electrician to install a polarized outlet.
Do not change
the plug in any way. Double insulation
H eliminates the need for the three
wire grounded power cord and grounded power supply system.
5. Avoid body contact withgrounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges
and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is
grounded.
6. Donot expose power tools torain or wet conditions. Water entering a power
tool
will increase the risk of electric shock.
7. Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cordto carry the tools or pullthe 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.
8. Whenoperating a powertool outside, use an outdoor extension cordmarked
"W-A' or "W." These cords are rated for outdoor use and reduce the risk
of electric shock.
Personal Safety
9. Stay alert, watch what you aredoing andusecommonsense whenoperating
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.
IO. Dressproperly. Donot wear loose clothing or jewelry. Contain longhair. Keep
your hair, clothing, and glovesaway from movingparts. Looseclothes, jewelry
or long hair can be caught in moving parts.

11. Avoid accidental starting. Be sure switch is off before plugging in. Carrying
tools withyour finger onthe switchor plugging
in tools that have theswitch
on invites accidents.
12. Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before turning the tool on. A wrench
or a key that
is left attachedtoa rotatingpart of thetool mayresult in personal
i nj u r y.
13. Donotoverreach.Keep properfootingand balanceat alltimes. 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.
Tool Use and Care
15. Use clamps or other practical way to secure and support the workpiece to
a stable platform. Holdingthe work by handor againstyour body is unstable
and may lead to
loss of control.
16. Do notforce tool. Use the correct toolfor your application. The correct tool
will do the job better and safer at the rate for which
it is designed.
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.
18. Disconnect the plugfrom 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.
19. Store idle tools out of reach of children and other untrained persons. Tools
are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
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 serviced before using. Many accidents are caused by poorly
maintained tools.
22. Use only accessories that are recommendedby the manufacturer for your
model. Accessories that may be suitable for one tool, maybecome hazardous
when used on another tool.
SERVICE
23. Tool service must be performed only by qualified repair personnel. Service
or maintenance 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. Useof unauthorized
partsor failure tofollow Maintenance Instructionsmaycreate a risk
of electric
shock or injury.

SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES
1. Holdtool by insulatedgrippingsurfaceswhen performingan operation
where the cutting tools may contact hidden wiring or its own cord.

2. Always besure you have a firm footing. Be sure no one is belowwhen
usingthe tool inhighlocations.
3. Holdthe toolfirmly.
4. Keephandsawayfrom rotating parts.

*Use the speed change knob only after the tool comes to
a completestop. Changingthe
tool speed before the tool stops may damagethe tool.
*Always set the speed change knob carefully intothe correct position.If you operate the
tool with the speed change knob positioned half-way between the position
1 and the
position
2, the tool may be damaged.
Two speed rangescan be pre-selectedwith
the speed change knob. Depress the lock
button and turn the speed change knob
so
that the pointer pointsto the position 1 or

Torque limiter(For ModelDA4031)
The torque limiter will actuate when a certain torque level is reached (for lower speed
setting: position 1).The motor
will disengage from the output shaft. When this happens,
the bit will stop turning.

Installing or removing drill bit
CAUTION:
Always be sure that the tool is switched off and unplugged before installing or removing
the bit.
To installthe bit, place it inthe chuck as far
as
it will go. Tighten the chuck by hand.
Place the chuck key in each
of the three
holes and tighten clockwise. Be sure to
tighten all three chuck holes evenly.
To
removethe bit, turn the chuck key counter-
clockwise injust one hole, then loosen the
chuck by hand.
After usingthe chuck key, be sure to return
itto the original position.

OPERATION
Holding tool
CAUTION:
This is a powerfultool. Hightorque is developed and it is importantthat the tool shouldbe
securely heldand properlybraced.
Grasp the handle with one hand and the spade grip with the other hand.When drilling
a
large hole with a self-feedbit, etc., the side grip (auxiliary handle) should be used as a
brace to maintainsafe controlof the tool.
When drilling action is forward (clockwise),the tool should be braced to prevent a
counterclockwisereactionif the bit should bind. When reversing, bracethe tool to prevent
a clockwise reaction. If the bit must be removed from a partially drilled hole, be sure the
tool is properlybraced before reversing.

Operation
CAUTION:
*There is
a tremendous force exerted on the tool/bit at the time of hole breakthrough.
Holdthe 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 backout. However, the tool may back out abruptly
if you do not holdit firmly.
aPressingexcessively
on thetool will not speed upthe drilling. Infact, this excessive pres-
sure will only serve to damage the tip of your bit, decrease the tool performance and
shorten the service life
of the tool.
*Always secure small workpiece in avise or similar holddowndevice
*Avoid drilling in material that you suspect contains hidden nails or other things that may
causethe bitto bind
or break.
*Drilling inwood
When drilling in wood, the best results are obtained with wood drills equipped with a
guide screw.The guide screw makesdrillingeasier by pulling the bit into the workpiece.
To prevent the bit from slipping when starting
a hole, makean indentation with a center-
punch and hammer at the point to be drilled. Placethe point
of the bit in the indentation
and startdrilling.
Use
a cutting lubricant when drilling metals. The exceptions are iron and brass which
should be drilled dry.
