WARNING: Always wear ear protection where the sound level exceeds 85dB(A)
and limit the time of exposure if necessary. If sound levels are uncomfortable,
even with ear protection, stop using the tool immediately and check the ear
protection is correctly fitted and provides the correct level of sound attenuation
for the level of sound produced by your tool.
WARNING: User exposure to tool vibration can result in loss of sense of touch,
numbness, tingling and reduced ability to grip. Long term exposure can lead to
a chronic condition. If necessary, limit the length of time exposed to vibration
and use anti-vibration gloves. Do not operate the tool with hands below a
normal comfortable temperature, as vibration will have a greater effect. Use
the figures provided in the specification relating to vibration to calculate the
duration and frequency of operating the tool.
Sound and vibration levels in the specification are determined according to
EN60745 or similar international standards. The figures represent normal use
for the tool in normal working conditions. A poorly maintained, incorrectly
assembled, or misused tool, may produce increased levels of noise and
vibration. www.osha.europa.eu provides information on sound and vibration
levels in the workplace that may be useful to domestic users who use tools for
long periods of time.
General Safety
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.
WARNING: This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including
children) with reduced, physical or mental capabilities or lack of
experience or knowledge unless they have been given supervision or
instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for
their safety. Children must be supervised to ensure that they do not play with
the appliance.
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.
1) Work area safety
a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or 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.
g) When used in Australia or New Zealand, it is recommended that this tool is
ALWAYS supplied via Residual Current Device (RCD) with a rated residual
current of 30mA or less.
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.
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 dust collection 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 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.

in damp or wet conditions.
Charging the battery
WARNING: Failure to follow the correct procedure when charging batteries will
result in permanent damage.
1. Slide the Battery Charger (15) onto a fully or partially discharged Battery
Note: Make sure the Battery and Battery Charger are lined up correctly. If the
Battery does not slide on to the Battery Charger easily, don’t force it. Instead,
remove the Battery, check the top of Battery and the Battery Charger slot are
clean and undamaged and that the contacts are not bent.
2. Once charging commences, the Red LED (18) will illuminate
3. When the Battery is fully charged, the Green LED (17) will be illuminated
Battery Charge Level: The battery has a built-in Charge Indicator (8) (Fig. I).
Pressing on the button to the right will indicate the charge level. The right LED
indicates a high charge level and the left a low charge level that will mean the
battery pack will require charging soon.
IMPORTANT: When a low charge level is indicated, the tool may stop operating
while in use. In some instances this may be dangerous. Always ensure the battery
pack has a good charge level.
Notes about battery charging:
• The battery should be charged at ambient temperatures between 10 and
40°C (ideally around 20°C)
• After charging, allow 15 minutes for the battery to cool before use
• Ensure that the charger is disconnected from the mains supply after use, and
is stored correctly
• DO NOT leave batteries on charge for extended periods and NEVER store
batteries on charge
• The Battery Charger monitors battery temperature and voltage while charging.
Remove the Battery once charging has been completed to maximise charge
cycles of the battery and not waste power
• Batteries can become faulty over time, individual cells in the battery can fail
and the battery could short. The charger will not charge faulty batteries. Use
another battery, if possible, to check correct functionality of the charger and
purchase a replacement battery if a faulty battery is indicated
• DO NOT store Lithium-Ion battery packs in a discharged state long term. This
can damage the Lithium-Ion cells. For long-term storage, store batteries in a
high charge state disconnected from the power tool
• The capacity of batteries will reduce over time. After 100 charge cycles, the
battery’s operation time and the maximum torque performance of the drill
will slightly reduce. This decline will continue until the battery has minimal
capacity after 500 charge cycles. This is normal and not a fault with the
battery pack

Speed control
• This drill driver features a 2-speed gearbox:
- 1st gear range: 0 – 450min-1
- 2nd gear range: 0 – 1600min-1
• Use the Gear Selector (4) to set the gear: forward for first gear, back for
second gear
Note: The first gear would be used normally for driving screws, for example,
and offers higher torque and superior control at low rpm. The second gear
would normally be used exclusively for drilling.
Torque control
• This drill driver is fitted with torque control, which limits the torque output
of the drill, enabling screws to be driven without the risk of damage
• There are 16 torque settings and two drill settings. The lower the number,
the lower the torque
• To adjust the torque, select the first gear and rotate the Torque
Adjustment Collar (2) until the setting you require is aligned with the
arrow on the impact drill housing
• Check that the torque setting is correct by practising first on a piece of
scrap material
Mode selection
• For drilling, select the correct gear, then rotate the Mode Selector (3) to
the drill symbol. This will lock the tool for maximum torque
• For screwdriving, select the correct gear, then rotate the Mode Selector to
the screw symbol. This will activate the torque clutch
• For masonry drilling, select the correct gear, then rotate the Mode Selector
to the hammer symbol. This will lock the tool for maximum torque and
activate hammer drill function
WARNING: The drill can be fitted with a drive adaptor for use with driving
nuts and bolts. Do not attempt to use this tool in the drill position when doing
so. Use the 16 torque settings and the first gear to allow the torque clutch to
protect the tool from excessive load. The use of a spanner to loosen or tighten
a nut/bolt is recommended. This allows the tool to speed up the operation,
without risk of damage, when high torque is required at the beginning or end
of the operation.

protection of the battery and internal components. This may prevent the tool
being used again for a short period of time and does not represent a fault
condition.
Drilling guidance
• Use sharp drill bits and ensure that drill bits are suitable for the material
being drilled
• Never exceed the maximum drilling capacities listed in ‘Specification’
• Begin drilling at slow speeds by partially squeezing the Speed Control
Trigger Switch
• Reduce pressure on the Speed Control Trigger Switch when the drill bit is
about to break through to the other side of material
• To avoid splintering on breakthrough, either clamp a piece of scrap wood to
the back of the workpiece or continue the hole from the back of the wood
when the drill bit first breaks through
Drilling metal
• Support thin material with a piece of scrap wood
• Mark the intended hole position using a hammer and centre punch
• Use only HSS (high speed steel) drill bits or others recommended for
drilling into metal
• Prior to drilling large holes, use a smaller bit to drill a pilot hole
• Use a suitable coolant/lubricant to prolong the service life of the drill bit,
and produce good results
Drilling masonry
• ‘Hammer drill mode’ should be used for drilling into masonry and concrete
• Always use a masonry drill bit, preferably a TCT masonry bit, when drilling
into walls, stone or concrete
• DO NOT apply too much pressure to the back of the tool. If debris blocks
the drill hole, run the drill slowly and remove the bit from the hole. Repeat
until the hole is clear of debris and continue
