Congratulations on purchasing an Ozito Drill Driver. We
aim to provide quality products at an affordable price.
We hope you will enjoy using this product for many years.
The Ozito Drill Driver DDC-280 is designed for drilling
timber and also for driving/removing screws. This tool
is intended for DIY use only.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
WARNING! When using mains-powered tools, basic safety precautions,
including the following, should always be followed to reduce risk of fire,
electric shock, personal injury and material damage.
Read the whole manual carefully and make sure you know how to switch the tool
off, in an emergency, before operating the tool.
Save these instructions and other documents supplied with this machine for future
reference.
The electric motor has been designed for 230V and 240V only. Always check that
the power supply corresponds to the voltage on the rating plate.
This tool is double insulated in accordance with AS/NZS 60745-1; therefore
no earth wire is required.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by an electrician or a power
tool repairer in order to avoid a hazard.
Note: Double insulation does not take the place of normal safety precautions
when operating this tool. The insulation system is for added protection against
injury resulting from a possible electrical insulation failure within the tool.
Using an Extension Lead
Always use an approved extension lead suitable for the power input of this tool.
Before use, inspect the extension lead for signs of damage, wear and ageing.
Replace the extension lead if damaged or defective.
When using an extension lead on a reel, always unwind the lead completely. Use of
an extension lead not suitable for the power input of the tool or which is damaged
or defective may result in a risk of fire and electric shock.
It is recommended that the extension lead is a maximum of 25m in length. Do Not
use multiple extension leads.

WARNING! Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow the
warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
The term "power tool" in all of the warnings refers to your mains-operated
(corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.
1) Work area safety
a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered and dark areas invite accidents.
b) Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the
presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which
may ignite the dust or fumes.
c) Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions
can cause you to lose control.
2) Electrical safety
a) Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way.
Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools.
Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock
b) Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes,
radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if
your body is earthed or grounded.
c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power
tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging
the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts.
Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
e) When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for
outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of
electric shock.
f) If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual
current device (RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of
electric shock.
3) Personal safety
a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating
a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the
influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while
operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
b) Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective
equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing
protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before
connecting to power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the
tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or energising power tools
that have the switch on invites accidents.

General Power Tool Safety Warnings - Personal Safety
!!
DDC-280 manual opt 1.qxd 4/7/11 8:48 AM Page 5

d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A
wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in
personal injury.
e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This
enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair,
clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or
long hair can be caught in moving parts.
g) If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection
facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of these
devices can reduce dust-related hazards.
4) Power tool use and care
a) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application.
The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it
was designed.
b) Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any
power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must
be repaired.
c) Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery pack from
the power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or
storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of
starting the power tool accidentally.
d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow
persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate
the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
e) Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts,
breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the power tools
operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many
accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with
sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in accordance with these
instructions and in the manner intended for the particular type of power
tool, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be
performed. Use of the power tool for operations different from those intended
could result in a hazardous situation.
5) Service
a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only
identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool
is maintained.
b) If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its
service agent or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.

Using an Extension Lead
Always use an approved extension lead suitable for the power input of this tool. Before
use, inspect the extension lead for signs of damage, wear and ageing. Replace the
extension lead if damaged or defective.
When using an extension lead on a reel, always unwind the lead completely. Use of an
extension lead not suitable for the power input of the tool or which is damaged or
defective may result in a risk of fire and electric shock.
It is recommended that the extension lead is a maximum of 25m in length. Do Not use
multiple extension leads.
WARNING! Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling
and other construction activities contain chemicals known to cause cancer,
birth defects or other reproductive harm.
Some examples of these chemicals are:
• Lead from lead-based paints
• Arsenic and chromium from chemically treated timber
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 dust masks that are specially designed
to filter out microscopic particles.

trigger (5).
FOR FORWARD ROTATION: Move the lever to the left.
FOR REVERSE ROTATION: Move the lever to the right.
Note: Do not change the direction of rotation while the
keyless chuck (1) is still in motion.
Torque Settings (Tightening Power of Your Drill Driver)
When using your drill driver for various driving applications, it becomes necessary to
increase and decrease the power and torque in order to prevent the possibility of
damaging screw heads, threads, work piece, etc. In general, power and torque should
correspond to the difficulty of the screw to be driven. If torque is too high the screws
may be damaged or broken.
To Adjust Torque
• Locate the arrow on the top front end of the grey housing.
• Identify the torque settings and 1 drill setting on the
torque adjustment ring (2).
• Rotate the torque adjustment ring (2) to the desired
setting aligning the number on the torque adjustment
ring (2) with the arrow on the housing.
• To increase or decrease torque, rotate torque adjustment
(2). The lower the number, the lower the torque setting.
The higher the number, the higher the torque setting.

•If the adjustment ring is aligned with the drill setting the torque clutch will
be disabled.
• Keep the ventilation slots of the tool clean at all times. If possible prevent
foreign matter from entering the vents.
• After each use, blow air through the tool to ensure it is free from all dust
particles that may build up. Build up of dust particles may cause the tool to
overheat and fail.
• If the enclosure of the tool requires cleaning do not use solvents but a moist
soft cloth only. Never let any liquid get inside the tool; never immerse any part
of the tool into a liquid.
• When the carbon brushes wear out the tool will spark and/or stop. The
brushes are a wearing component of the tool and should be replaced prior to
the carbon wearing out fully. Brushes will wear out after many uses but before
they do take the tool to a power tool repairer for quick and low cost
replacement. Always replace both brushes at the same time.
Note: Ozito Industries will not be responsible for any damage or injuries caused
by the repair of the tool by an unauthorised person or by mishandling of the tool.
