IMPORTANT
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
(For All Tools)
WARNING: WHEN USINGELECTRICTOOLS, BASIC SAFETY
PRECAUTIONSSHOULDALWAYS 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. Keep work area well
lit. Don't expose power tools to rain.
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. Whennot in use, tools should bestored in dry, and high
or locked-up place
- out of reach of children.
5. DON'T FORCETOOL. It will dothejob better andsafer at the ratefor which
it was intended.
6. USE RIGHT TOOL. Don't force small tool or attachment todo the job of a
heavy-dutytool. Don't use toolfor purposenot intended; for example, don't
use circular saw for cutting tree limbs or logs.
7. DRESS PROPERLY. Don't wear loose clothing orjewelry. They can becaught
in moving parts. Rubber gloves and non-skid footwear are recommended
when working outdoors. Wear protectivehair 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 tool by cordor 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 lubricatingand changing acces-
sories. Inspecttool cords periodicallyandif damaged, have repairedby 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 in use, beforeservicing, and when chang-
ing accessories, such as blades, bits, cutters.
2

14. REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS AND WRENCHES. Form habit of checking to
see that keys and adjusting wrenches are removed from tool before turning
it on.
15. AVOID UNINTENTIONAL STARTING. Don't carry toolwithfinger onswitch.
Be sure switch is OFF when plugging in.
16. EXTENSION CORDS. Make sure your extension cord is in good condition.
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
inlinevoltage resulting in
loss of power and overheating. Table 1 shows the
correct size to use depending on cordlengthandnameplate ampere rating.
If in doubt, use the next heavier gage. The smaller the gage number, the
heavier the cord.

17. OUTDOOR USE EXTENSIONCORDS. When tool is usedoutdoors, use only
extension cords intended for use outdoors and
so marked.
18. STAY ALERT. Watch what you are doing, use common sense. Don't operate
tool when you are tired.
19. 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, bindingof moving parts, breakageof 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 serv-
ice center unlessotherwise indicated elsewhere
in this instruction manual.
Have defective switches replaced by authorized service center. Don't use
tool
if switch does not turn it on and off.
20. GUARD AGAINST ELECTRIC SHOCK. Prevent body contact with grounded
surfaces. For example; pipes, radiators, ranges, refrigerator enclosures.
21. REPLACEMENT PAFlTS. Whenservicing, useonly identicalreplacementparts.
22. POLARIZEDPLUGS. To reduce the risk of electric shock, this equipment has
a polarized
plug (one blade is wider than the other). This plug will fit in a
polarized outlet only one way.
If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet,
reversethe plug.
If it stilldoes not fit, contacta qualified electrician toinstall
the proper outlet. Do not change the plug in any way.

VOLTAGE WARNING: Before connectingthe tooltoa 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.

holesof uniform depth. Loosen the side grip
and insert the depth gauge into the hole in
the side grip. Adjust the depth gauge to the
desireddepthandtightenthe sidegrip.
Action mode
This tool employs the action mode changing
buttons.For rotationonly, pressthe button
on
the L- mark side fully. For rotation with
hammering,pressthe buttonon the

direction of rotation.
Move the reversing
switch lever to
t> the position for clockwise
rotation or the
0 position for counterclock-
wise rotation.
Reversing

CAUTION:
*Always check the direction of rotation before operation.
*Use the reversing switch only after the tool comes to
a complete stop. Changing the
direction
of rotation before the tool stops may damagethe tool.

Operation
1) Hammeringdrilling operation
When drilling in concrete, granite, tile, etc., pressthe button on the
lop mark side fully.
Be sure to use
a tungstencarbide tipped bit. Do not apply more pressure when the
hole becomes clogged with chips or particles. Instead, run the tool
at an idle, then
remove the bit partiallyfrom the hole. By repeatingthis several times, the hole will be
cleanedout.
After drilling the hole, usethe blow-out
bulbto cleanthe dust out of the hole.
2) Drillingoperation
When drilling in wood, metal or plastic materials, press the button on the
L- mark
side fully.
*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 work-
piece.
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 excep
tions are iron and brass which should be drilled dry.
*Drillingin metal
CAUTION:
*Pressing excessively on the toolwill not speed up the drilling. Infact, this excessive pres-
sure will only serve to damage the tip of your bit, decrease the tool performance and
shorten the service lifeof the tool.
*There
is a tremendous twisting force exerted on the tool/bit at the time of hole break-
through. Hold the tool firmly and exert care when the bit begins to break through the
workpiece. Use both hands to help control the tool. Be sure to use the side grip to main-
tain proper control.
*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-downdevice.
