DOUBLE INSULATION
Double insulation is a concept in safety, in electric power
tools, which eliminates the need for the usual three-wire
grounded power cord. All exposed metal parts are isolated
from the internal metal motor components with protecting
insulation.Doubleinsulatedtoolsdonotneedtobegrounded.
IMPORTANT
Servicing of a tool with double insulation requires extreme
careandknowledgeofthesystemandshouldbeperformed
onlybyaqualifiedservicetechnician.Forservicewesuggest
you return the tool to your nearest RYOBI FACTORY or
AUTHORIZED SERVICE CENTER for repair. When
servicing use only identical Ryobi replacement parts.

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS
1. KNOW YOUR POWER TOOL. Read owner's
manual carefully. Learn its applications and
limitations as well as the specific potential
hazards related to this tool.
2. GUARD AGAINST ELECTRICAL SHOCK by
preventing body contact with grounded
surfaces. For example: Pipes, radiators,
ranges, refrigerator enclosures.
3. KEEP GUARDS IN PLACE and in working
order.
4. KEEP WORK AREA CLEAN. Cluttered areas
and benches invite accidents.
5. AVOID DANGEROUS ENVIRONMENT. Don't
use power tool in damp or wet locations or
expose to rain. Keep work area well lit.
6. KEEP CHILDREN AND VISITORS AWAY.
All visitors should wear safety glasses and be
kept a safe distance from work area. Do not
let visitors contact tool or extension cord.
7. STORE IDLE TOOLS. When not in use tools
should be stored in a dry and high or locked-
up place - out of the reach of children.
8. DON'T FORCE TOOL. It will do the job better
and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
9. USE RIGHT TOOL. Don't force small tool or
attachment to do the job of a heavy duty tool.
Don't use tool for purpose not intended - for
example - A circular saw should never be
used for cutting tree limbs or logs.
10. WEAR PROPER APPAREL. Do not wear
loose clothing or jewelry that can get caught
in the tool's moving parts and cause personal
injury. Rubber gloves and nonskid footwear
are recommended when working outdoors.
Wear protective hair covering to contain long
hair and keep it from being drawn into nearby
air vents.
11. ALWAYS WEAR SAFETY GLASSES.
Everyday eyeglasses have only impact-
resistant lenses; they are NOT safety glasses.
12. PROTECT YOUR LUNGS. Wear a face or
dust mask if operation is dusty.
13. PROTECT YOUR HEARING. Wear hearing
protection during extended periods of
operation.
14. DON'T ABUSE CORD. Never carry tool by
cord or yank it to disconnect from receptacle.
Keep cord from heat, oil and sharp edges.
15. SECURE WORK. Use clamps or a vise to
hold work. Both hands are needed to operate
the tool.
16. DON'T OVERREACH. Keep proper footing
and balance at all times. Do not use on a
ladder or unstable support.

thatkeysandadjustingwrenchesareremoved
from tool before turning it on.
20. AVOID ACCIDENTAL STARTING. Don't
carry plugged-in tools with finger on switch.
Be sure switch is off when plugging in.
21. 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 in
line voltage resulting in loss of power and
overheating. A wire gage size (A.W.G.) of at
least 14 is recommended for an extension
cord 50 feet or less in length. A cord exceeding
100 feet is not recommended. If in doubt, use
the next heavier gage. The smaller the gage
number, the heavier the cord.
22. OUTDOOR USE EXTENSION CORDS.
When tool is used outdoors, use only
extension cords suitable for use outdoors.
Outdoor approved cords are marked with
the suffix W-A, for example - SJTW-A or
SJOW-A.

VARIABLE SPEED
See Figure 5.
Your drill has a variable speed control selector designed to
allow operator control and adjustment of speed and torque
limits.The speed andtorque of your drill can be increased or
decreased by rotating the variable speed control selector in
the direction of the arrows shown in figure 5.
NOTE: Hold your drill in normal operating position and turn
the variable speed control selector clockwise to increase the
speed and torque of your drill. Turn counterclockwise to
decrease the speed and torque of your drill.
If you desire to lock the switch on at a given speed, depress
the switch trigger, push in and hold the lock-on button, and
release the switch trigger. Next, adjust the variable speed
control selector until the desired speed is reached.
NOTE: If the variable speed control selector is fully
turned in the counterclockwise direction (zero setting)
your drill may not run.
If you desire not to use the variable speed control
selector, turn it in the full clockwise direction. This will
allow the speed of your drill to be fully controlled by the
amount of switch trigger depression.
Avoidrunningyourdrillatlowspeedsforextendedperiodsof
time. Running at low speeds under constant usage may
cause your drill to become overheated. If this occurs, cool
your drill by running it without a load and at full speed.
The following guidelines may be used in determining correct
speed for various applications:
LOW speed is ideal when minimum speed and power is
required. For example: starting holes without center punch-
ing, driving screws, mixing paint, and drilling in ceramics.
MEDIUM speed is suitable for drilling hard metals, plastics,
and laminates.
HIGH speed produces best results when maximum power is
required. For example: drilling in wood; soft metals such as
aluminum,brass,andcopper;andwhenusingdrivingacces-
sories.
AUXILIARY HANDLE

See Figure 9.
1. Depressandreleasetheswitchtriggertobesureyour
drill is in OFF position before connecting it to power
supply.
2. Checkthe direction of rotationleverfor correct setting
(forward or reverse). See Figure 3, Page 6.
3. Secure the material to be drilled in a vise or with
clamps to keep it from turning as the drill bit rotates.
4. Plug your drill into power supply source.
5. Holdyourdrillfirmlyandplacethebitatthepoint to be
drilled.
6. Depress the switch trigger to start your drill. Do not
lock the switch ON for jobs where your drill may need
to be stopped suddenly.
7. Move the drill bit into the workpiece applying only
enough pressure to keep the bit cutting. Do not force
yourdrillorapplysidepressuretoelongateahole.Let
your drill and bit do the work. See Figure 9.
WARNING:
Be prepared for binding or breakthrough. When these
situations occur, drill has a tendency to grab and kick in
the opposite direction and could cause loss of control
whenbreakingthroughmaterial.Ifnotprepared,thisloss
of control can result in possible serious injury.
When drilling hard, smooth surfaces use a center punch to
mark the desired hole location. This will prevent the drill bit
from slipping off center as the hole is started. However, the
variable speed feature allows starting holes without center
punching if desired. To accomplish this, operate your drill at
a low speed until the hole is started.
When drilling metals use a light oil on the drill bit to keep it
from overheating. The oil will prolong the life of the bit and
increase the drilling action.
If the bit jams in the workpiece or if your drill stalls, stop the
tool immediately. Remove the bit from the workpiece and
determine the reason for jamming.
OPERATION
Fig. 9
WARNING:
Drilling into electrical wiring in walls can cause drill bit
and chuck to become electrically live. DO NOT touch
any part of the chuck or metal housing when drilling into
a wall. Grasp only the insulated handles provided on
the tool. Failure to heed this warning can result in
serious personal injury.
WARNING:
To prevent the risk of serious injury, make sure the
auxiliary handle position is adjusted for maximum control.
If the drill binds, the entire drill motor will rotate and
could hit the operator resulting in serious injury. Confirm
the position of the auxiliary handle by locating the drill in
the planned operating position before connecting to
power supply.

MAINTENANCE
GENERAL
Avoid using solvents when cleaning plastic parts. Most
plastics are susceptible to damage from various types of
commercialsolventsandmaybedamagedbytheiruse.Use
clean cloths to remove dirt, carbon dust, etc.
WARNING:
Do not at any time let brake fluids, gasoline, petroleum-
based products, penetrating oils, etc. come in contact
with plastic parts. They contain chemicals that can
damage, weaken, or destroy plastic.
When electric tools are used on fiberglass boats, sports
cars, wallboard, spackling compounds, or plaster, it has
been found that they are subject to accelerated wear and
possible premature failure, as the fiberglass chips and
grindings are highly abrasive to bearings, brushes,
commutators, etc. Consequently it is not recommended
that this tool be used for extended work on any fiberglass
material, wallboard, spackling compounds, or plaster. During
any use on fiberglass it is extremely important that the tool
is cleaned frequently by blowing with an air jet.
EXTENSION CORDS
Theuseofanyextensioncordwillcausesomelossofpower.
To keep the loss to a minimum and to prevent tool from
overheating, use an extension cord that is heavy enough to
carry the current the tool will draw.
Awire gage size(A.W.G.) of atleast 14 is recommendedfor
an extension cord 50 feet or less in length. When working
outdoors, use an extension cord that is suitable for outdoor
use. The cord's jacket will be marked WA.
WARNING:
When servicing use only identical Ryobi replacement
parts. Use of any other parts may create a hazard or
cause product damage.
WARNING:
Always wear safety goggles or safety glasses with side
shieldsduringpowertooloperationorwhenblowingdust.
If operation is dusty, also wear a dust mask.
WARNING:
Check extension cords before each use. If damaged
replaceimmediately.Neverusetoolwithadamagedcord
