General safety instructions for handling
power tools
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 the warnings refers to your mains
operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless)
power tool.
This unit may not be used by people (including children) with
reduced physical, sensory or mental capacities, with a lack
of experience and without the appropriate knowledge, unless
they are supervised by someone who is responsible for their
safety or have been instructed by such a person with regard
to how the unit is to be operated.
Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not
play with the device.
1. Work area
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.

5
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 it is not possible to avoid using the electrical
tool in a damp environment, use a residual current
circuit-breaker. The use of a residual current circuit-
breaker reduces the risk of an electrical 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
masks, nonskid safety shoes, a hard hat, or hearing
protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce the
risk of 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.
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. Keep handles dry, clean and free from oil and
grease. Slippery handles do not allow for safe handling
and control of the tool in unexpected situations.
h. 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 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 tool’s
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, 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. Use and treatment of the battery operated tool
a Only use chargers to recharge the battery that have
been recommended by the manufacturer.
b. Only use the batteries designed for use in the
electric tools. The use of other batteries may lead to
injury and risk of fire.
c. When not in use, keep the battery away from paper
clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or other small
metallic objects that may bridge the contacts.
A short-circuit between the battery contacts can lead
to burns or fire.
d. Fluid can escape from the battery when used
incorrectly. Avoid all contact with this. In the event of
accidental contact, rinse with water. If liquid should get
into the eyes, get medical assistance. Battery fluid may
result in skin irritations and burns.
6. General safety information for battery-powered drills.
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.
7. Safety information for battery powered drills.
a. Hold the tool by the insulated handle surfaces only
when carrying out tasks during which is it possible
that the tools will come across hidden power cables
or its own cable. Contact with a power carrying cable
can also put metal parts of the unit under pressure and
cause an electric shock.
8. Safety notes for battery/charger.
a. Keep the charger away from rain or damp
conditions. Water entering into the charger will increase
the risk of an electrical shock.
b. Only use chargers recommended by the
manufacturer to recharge the battery. There is a risk
of fire if it is used with other batteries.
c. Never use to recharge third-party batteries. The
charger is only designed to charge the supplied batteries
(Li-Ion) using the voltages specified in the Technical Data.
Otherwise there is a risk of fire or explosion.
d. Keep the charger clean. Contamination will increase
the risk of an electrical shock.
e. Check the charger, cable and plug each time you
use the unit. Do not use the charger if you find any
damage. Never open the charger up yourself, have
it repaired by a qualified specialist only and with
original replacement parts. A damaged charger, cable
or plug will increase the risk of an electrical shock.
f. Never operate the charger on a surface that will

g. Fluid can escape from the battery when used
incorrectly. Avoid all contact with this. In the event of
accidental contact, rinse with water. If liquid should
get into the eyes, get medical assistance. Battery fluid
may result in skin irritations and burns.
h. Do not open the battery. There is a risk of short-
circuiting.
i. Protect the battery from heat, for example, from
constant sun and fire. There is a risk of explosion.
j. Never short circuit the battery. There is a risk of
explosion.
k. In the event of damage and incorrect use, vapours
may come out of the battery. Ensure your work space
is well ventilated with fresh air and, if you have any
symptoms, consult a doctor. These vapours may irritate
the respiratory system
Safety rules for cordless drill/drivers
a) Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces when performing
an operation where the drill bits may contact hidden
wiring or its own cord. Contact with a “live” wire will make
exposed metal parts of the tool “live” and shock the
operator.
b) Always wear safety goggles or eye protection when using
this tool. Use a dust mask or respirator for applications
which generate dust.
c) Secure the material being drilled. Never hold it in your
hand or across legs. Unstable support can cause the drill
bit to bind causing loss of control and injury.
d) Position yourself to avoid being caught between the tool
or side handle and walls or posts. Should the bit become
bound or jammed in the work, the reaction torque of the
tool could crush your hand or leg.
e) If the bit becomes bound in the workpiece, release the
trigger immediately, reverse the direction of rotation and
slowly squeeze the trigger to back out the bit. Be ready
for a strong reaction torque. The drill body will tend to
twist in the opposite direction as the drill bit is rotating.
f) Do not grasp the tool or place your hands too close to the
spinning chuck or drill bit. Your hand may be lacerated.
g) When installing a drill bit, insert the shank of the bit well
within the jaws of the chuck. If the bit is not inserted deep
enough, the grip of the jaws over the bit is reduced and
the loss of control is increased.
h) Do not use dull or damaged bits and accessories. Dull
or damaged bits have a greater tendency to bind in the
workpiece.
i) When removing the bit from the tool avoid contact with
skin and use proper protective gloves when grasping the
bit or accessory. Accessories may be hot after prolonged
use. Check to see that keys and adjusting wrenches are
removed from the drill before switching the tool on. Keys
or wrenches can fly away at high velocity striking you or
a bystander.
j) Do not run the drill while carrying it at your side. A
spinning drill bit could become entangled with clothing
and injury may result.
WARNING! Some dust created by power sanding, sawing,
grinding, drilling, and other construction activities contains
chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects or other
reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:
a) Lead from lead-based paints,
b) Crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other
masonry products, and
c) Arsenic and chromium from chemically treated lumber.
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 those dust masks
that are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.

Important information – Product care
This drill/driver uses Lithium Ion Battery Cells. Care
MUST be taken to ensure both the safety and life of the
pack is maintained. Ensure you have read all of the safety
notes in the previous pages before using the drill/driver.
Treat the battery pack with care and within the guidelines
of this manual. If the pack does become immersed in water
or any fluids, or is subject to a sever drop etc, or it does not
operate within the guidelines of this manual, immediately
STOP using the battery pack and have it checked.
During operation avoid overloading the drill/driver. If
the drill driver is overloaded it will automatically STOP.
Overloading may occur for a number of reasons including
when the drill driver is pushed too hard or when using a
drill bit or attachment greater than what is specified. If you
do overload the drill driver during operation refer to the
“Overload” section in this manual.
Note: When the battery of the drill is at the lower end of the
charge, the drill is more susceptible to the overload condition.
Running the drill at close to maximum load, or continual
resetting of the overload will cause the battery pack to
over heat. When a preset cell temperature is detected, the
battery pack will automatically STOP operating and will not
restart until the battery pack has cooled to a safe level.
In this condition, DO NOT force cool the pack by placing in
a freezer or similar device. Refer to the “Overload” section
in this manual.
Another feature of the drill/battery pack is the low voltage
cut out feature. This feature operates when the voltage
drops below a pre set value. When this occurs the tool will
automatically stop operating. To correct the situation you
need to either insert another charged battery into the drill
or recharge the existing battery, and then proceed with the
drilling/driving application.
Note: Attempting to restart the tool in this condition without
either recharging the battery or installing a battery with
charge will lead to drill restarting and then stopping again
after only a few seconds of operation.
These safety devices have been fitted for the safety,
reliability and life of the tool.
Fitting and removing
the battery pack.
1. To install the battery pack
to the tool, align the raised
portion of the battery pack with
the grooves on the bottom of
the drill, and slide it firmly into
the handle until you hear the
battery release button snap
into place.
2. To remove the battery pack
from the tool, press the battery
pack release button and slide
the battery pack completely
out of tool handle.
When inserting the battery pack
into the charger, make sure
the pack is fully seated in the
charger.
To remove the battery pack from
the charger base, press the battery release button and slide
the battery out.

2 Speed gearbox
The 2 Speed Gearbox allows you
to select a gear with the optimum
speed and torque to suit the
application.
Note. When changing the drill
selector ensure the drill is not
operating.
To select the LOW gear (low speed, high torque setting),
push the gear selector (6) backward, towards the back of
the drill. The word LO will be displayed.
To select the HIGH gear (high speed, low torque setting),
push the gear selector (6) forward, towards the chuck.
The word HI will be displayed.
Using the drill
Trigger switch
Use the forward/reverse switch
(4) to select the direction of
rotation, then pull the trigger (3).
This trigger switch is an electronic
variable speed control which
enables the user to vary the
speed continuously. The speed
varies according to how far the
trigger switch is depressed. The
further it is depressed the faster
the chuck will rotate and the
lighter it is depressed, the slower
it will rotate.
To stop the drill, release the
trigger switch.
Note. The variable speed control fitted to this drill is NOT
intended to be used for long periods of time during the
operation of the task being performed. Use the variable
speed to start drilling and screwing tasks, and then fully
depress the trigger once the task has started.
CAUTION. Extended use of the variable speed under
load will overload and then permanently damage the
speed control.
Drill Overload
This drill is fitted with an overload protection. If the drill is
excessively forced, or the task being performed is too great
for the drill, the drill will automatically go into an overload
mode. When the drill goes into overload, the drill will
automatically and suddenly STOP. To reset the overload,
simply release the trigger. When the trigger is pressed
again, the drill will restart. Resume work after the overload
has been reset, but reduce the load by using a smaller drill
bit or re-sharpen the existing drill bit and reduce the amount
of force placed on the drill. If the drill is set to High speed on
the gear selector, consider changing to low speed selection.
CAUTION. Do not continue to overload the drill and
constantly reset the overload. Doing this will cause the
battery cells to over heat.
Temperature Cut Out
If the drill is constantly overloaded, or the drill is used
constantly at maximum rating in high ambient conditions,
the battery cells may over heat causing the battery pack to
shut down.
When this occurs you will need to immediately stop drilling
and allow the battery cells to reduce the temperature.
Note. The drill will not restart until the battery pack has cooled.
To reduce the temperature of the cells remove the battery
pack from the drill and place the battery pack in a free air
environment, out of direct sunlight or any other heat source.
DO NOT force cool the pack in any way. Do not place in
refrigerators or freezers.
When the battery pack has cooled down it can again
be used to operate the drill, as long as the load or the
conditions causing the original excessive temperature has
been corrected.

Low voltage cut out
The battery pack used on this tool is fitted with a low
voltage cut out feature within the circuitry.
The low voltage cut out feature operates when the voltage
drops below a pre set value. This feature automatically
stops the drill from operating (similar to that of the over
load condition). When this condition occurs you will need
to either insert another battery into the drill or recharge the
existing battery.
The low voltage cut out feature has been added to
maximise the tools life. When this occurs, recharge the
battery pack by following the battery charging section in
this manual.
Note: Attempting to restart the tool without either recharging
the battery or installing another battery (with charge) will
lead to drill restarting and then stopping again, after only a
few seconds of operation.
Forward/reverse switch
Note. You can only change the direction of rotation of the
drill using the forward/reverse switch when the trigger is
NOT depressed.
This switch will allow you to change the direction of the
motor while the trigger switch is not depressed.
Drilling uses the forward mode. The reverse mode is
intended for the removal of screws and assisting to remove
jammed drill bits.
Adjustable torque
This drill is equipped with 20
torque settings plus one drill
setting which are controlled
by the torque collar (2). All of
the torque settings are clearly
identified on the torque collar.
To adjust the torque setting you
rotate the torque collar. The
higher the number, the higher the torque setting.
Controlling the torque allows for better control when using
the drill on specific add screwing tasks and prevents over-
fastening and over-tightening.
For drilling, always use the Drill position by aligning the Drill
symbol with the triangular indicator on the front face of the
drill near the torque collar.
For setting the torque position, select a low setting on
the torque collar and align the selected symbol with the
triangular indicator on the top of the drill.
Inserting and removing bits
This drill has a keyless chuck,
which means that a chuck key
is not needed to secure a bit in
the drill.
Open the chuck by unscrewing
it in an anti-clockwise direction,
holding the drill as shown.
Do this sufficiently enough to
allow the drill bit to enter the jaws of the chuck.
Ensure the drill bit is fully inserted, so that the chuck jaws
grip the straight section of the bit.
Rotate the chuck clock-wise until the jaws tighten on the drill
bit. The collar of the chuck needs to be tightened firmly to
ensure the drill bit is held securely.
To remove the drill bit, rotate sharply the chuck in a anti-
clockwise direction, sufficiently enough to allow the drill bit
to be removed.
Note. This device is fitted with spindle lock and the chuck

Drilling
Drilling metals
• Always clamp sheet metal.
• Support thin metal with a block of wood to avoid
distorting it.
• Use a punch to mark the centre of the hole.
• Use a suitable lubricant for the material you are
working on,
USE: FOR:
Oil Steel
Turpentine or paraffin Aluminium
Do not lubricate Brass, copper or cast iron
Drilling plastics and plastic coated chipboard
• Use high speed drill bits
• See drilling wood below
Drilling masonry
• This drill is NOT designed for drilling masonry.
Drilling wood
• Clamp a piece of scrap wood to the back of your work to
prevent splintering.
All drilling operations
• Mark off the centre of the hole using a centre punch or nail.
• Don’t force the drill, let it work at its own pace
• Keep the drill bit sharp.
• Reduce pressure, as the drill is about to break through
the item being drilled.
LED work light
When the unit is switched on, the LED work light (9) also
comes on to ensure better vision and to make working in
dark areas more safe. The working light goes out when the
On/Off switch is released.
CAUTION! LED is laser class 1! Do not look directly into the
laser as this may result in damage to the eyes.
Chuck replacement
The chucks of reversible drills are always fixed by a screw
with a left-hand thread. The screw, which is located in the
centre of the chuck, must be removed before the chuck can
be removed. To remove the screw, turn it in a clockwise
direction. The chuck can now be removed by unscrewing it
anti-clockwise. If you have trouble removing the chuck take
the drill to your nearest authorised service centre for chuck
replacement.
CAUTION. Always ensure that the drill is switched off
and the battery pack is removed before making any
adjustments.
Belt clip
The belt clip (10) is used to
assist to clip the tool to your
waist belt while working. Install
the clip to the drill by locating the
belt clip tabs in the slots in the
drill and tighten the screw to fix
the clip firmly.
